Just a year ago! Thanks for pointing out, I did miss that link to an important place.
It’s like a rip in the cloth of space and time!

Man that was a very lucky G1 as you can see…
Should probably play it safe on J1 to avoid giving it right back…
Not trying to be insulting to the rest of the fine Yankees playing in this tournament, but I would daresay the US could hardly do better than the pairing in this round. I love the brave choice of foregoing 6 IPC with the Germans, as well.
Heh - brave to forgo 6 IPC’s maybe, but I think it’s more of a chicken route…. Too chicken to give you a counterattack option
Your bid of a DD did about as well as mine vs. Zhukov. Definitely messed with my G1 though, so was probably still a success. With a little luck you take down a sub and a couple of fighters, while sparing the battleship… I think it will become one of my favorite placements (DD to 12)
Not sure I follow you on the “pairing in this round”… Are you saying it’s too bad one of us has to lose, or…?
I saw team Europe are pretty pleased with themselves…
Well, team Europe has 3 of probably the 5-10 best players on the scene (as much as you may not get along with one in particular :)). It’s too bad one of us is going down here.

Well at least I like Func and respect Yoshi… :-)
Hmmmm… maybe I should be throwing this game and trying to win G40 instead so I don’t have to play him again!
Looks like my “favorite” European player just took yet another very early exit in a tournament! :-)
He’s a legend in his own mind.
IMO, Yoshi is as good as anyone on the planet. Maybe you don’t like Dutch, but he crushes like few others. I would say he’s the worst of their bunch, but hey that’s saying something quite impressive. Dutch has amassed quite a few impressive victories through the years. Aside from Yamamot0, he might be the best on AAA.
