i’m just talkin smack karl - don’t take it personally.

The only thing I take personally is the DICE!

Only they can make me cry!

[Karl7]

i don’t take well to being given my first loss by way of an epic dicing

Remember, you told me to attack!

Also, I hate to say it, but I am not so sure how critical that battle was in the end.

tell ya what.  take that win back and let’s go reboot the game to that japan turn and we will see.  put your money where your mouth is karl - that move was a complete brain freeze by me.  :roll:

[boldfresh]

better yet, i will offer you one final game that is worth 3 wins - winner take all and the rest are negated.

@Boldfresh:

don’t think this one would pass the league front office.  but maybe the reboot would since you would just be allowing an unintended move to be rescinded…  :-)

[boldfresh]

i had actually meant to destroyer block your fleet off iceland but accidentally grabbed it with the rest of the attackers going into the small battle in z110 (what was there maybe a destroyer or a sub there?)  :lol:

[boldfresh]

it’s ok, i can take a loss.  helps keep me sharp - i was getting sloppy.

[Karl7]

i had actually meant to destroyer block your fleet off iceland but accidentally grabbed it with the rest of the attackers going into the small battle in z110 (what was there maybe a destroyer or a sub there?)

There were 2 routs (or more) for the fleet to go.  Neither was blocked.

[boldfresh]

ah yes thats right they can go through 111.  well there ya go.  the whole idea of moving that fleet north was poorly conceived.  it should have simply sat in z92.  if it goes there you would have had issues.  not saying i could have won cuz i would still say i was an underdog, but it would have been interesting.

my weakness in a&a (which gamer will attest to) is that when i’m way ahead i tend to want the other player to catch up so i can have a challenge and be forced to work for it.  and sometimes that burns me bad, as it did against you.  i should have just taken down moscow and kept the pressure on!  you’re such a nice guy i didn’t want to do it to you twice in a row and it led to my downfall…

this time, it’s grind you into the dust though, unfortunately.

[boldfresh]

well that 17 to 0 start didn’t look good but now the 49ers are coming on strong good luck

[Karl7]

No offense to anyone, but I am impressed with the level of play this year in the league. It has caught me by surprise a little I think.  All you guys were hiding out in the AA50 league and then BAMB, can rolling into the G40.

a lot of the top players (can anyone say Yoshi and DutchmanD and maybe even COW???) are still not even in the league.  i don’t think they will venture in until they believe the competition level is high enough.

[Karl7]

Sf won.  A sign?    :-)

@Karl7:

Sf won.  A sign?    :-)

Great game!
