L25 Playoff OOB GeneralDisarray (X) V ABH (A) Bid 50


  • @gamerman01 said in L25 Playoff OOB GeneralDisarray (X) V ABH (A) Bid 50:

    But I stand by the conclusion that although I don’t think either of you handled this properly, especially if General D wasn’t looking at a map, there’s no way the General would take off his last destroyer if he was facing off against you across the board

    I’m anticipating ABH protest to this statement, so I’ll go ahead and say now, that it’s clear you knew General D was making a very questionable decision which is why you were saying, essentially, “are you SURE”? And General D said yes, so you took the opportunity to wipe out his fleet with subs.
    If I were you, I would have said “but you want to save 1 destroyer, right”? otherwise, say “I think you need to look at the map”.
    No, you’re not required to be a baby-sitter but my opinion is this is just good sportsmanship.

    BUT this result (18 American subs surviving and 15 Jap planes splashing) WILL NOT STAND UNLESS another veteran player rules that it should stand because technically you almost perfectly followed General D’s ill-advised but yet firm and repeated orders and technically won it fair and square.

    Let me know if you want a 2nd opinion due to the fact that I’m next opponent. I think Axis-Dominion should be the decider if my views are not agreed upon by you both


  • I just would have used common sense had I’d been able to see it. Feel like I got taken advantage of because the game no longer functions between turns when combat is being rolled. Happy to just conceded to get this done and don’t want any bad blood with the game creator. I’ll post this up in a bit.


  • You missed my 2nd post, maybe,
    You posted right after it

    The result of 18 subs remaining and 15 Jap planes splashing is not OK.


  • I am not playing currently but wanna share four thoughts on this:

    (1) we are having a great moderator!! not shy to take a position 👍

    (2) I would probably have done like ABH has (because I enjoy playing sneakily) - but then hopefully feel convicted by this case not being noble sportsmanship which is characeristic for this league.

    (3) The fact of GD not being able to look at map might be essential.

    (4) The sneak would have also worked with only one sub remaining, would it have not?


    1. There were just 2 transports defending,
      Many subs were kept to sink many carriers where many planes could do nothing without a destroyer

  • @gamerman01

    sure! I already forgot that carriers only attack at 0 🤪


  • I have posted the savefiles, provided screenshots, and summarized the unit/dice situation in text also. The choice of losses was made and confirmed and confirmed again despite warnings to select carefully;’ more dice were rolled. The loss decision was a major blunder, but that happens quite frequently in TripleA matches. I allow unlimited edits or changes of decisions prior to dice rolls, but not afterwards. This is the norm in League matches. I am going to claim this as a W.

    @GeneralDisarray, I have had enough prior tournament successes and will have a busy remainder of the year. Go ahead and take my spot in the OOB playoff bracket and play Round 2 against @gamerman01 .


  • Assuming you two don’t change your mind about anything (the General hasn’t technically lost) and General Disarray does post his loss and it’s official,

    It is not the right of the winner in a tournament to appoint someone else to take his place.
    Assuming General D resigns, you have to either play me or resign. If you don’t start the game with me, be assured it will not count in the records/ELO

    Hope this helps, so that you can be thinking about what you want to do


  • Well then reverse uno card: I resign in this match and take the L. GG General Disarray.

  • Who was winning this game? LOL
    Was it tight until broken by an OOL?
