@Gamerman01:

I know we all remember the bad luck more than the good, and when we get lucky a lot of times we’re like “oh, that was nice” and move on.  It’s a wonder we don’t all hate each other for saying the other one is more lucky.

yeah it is funny how we just assume good luck, but obsess with bad luck. this reminds me i should not comment when i get bad luck as no one(especially my opponent) wants to hear about my “misfortunes”

@Gamerman01:

But losing 1 extra tac in Yunnan and a couple destroyers - I don’t want to hear it.  You wouldn’t believe what happened to my Japan in my just-finished game against Snake.  He couldn’t miss.
I’ve been on a brutal AA run - mine have been missing and theirs have been hitting - and you are part of that run.
Good grief, I just lost my UK bomber over France on it’s maiden run.
Agh - the more I talk about this game the more bad luck I remember.

bad dice still bother me but much less than it used to. i just remember that it is a fun random game and having bad dice setbacks is all part of the fun. if i still got bothered by poor results, i would have to stop playing the game, as every game you are going to get great dice and horrible dice in different battles.

@Gamerman01:

Just remember - when players complain about luck it’s usually because they’re worried about losing because you’ve been playing well.  And I’ve been on a very bad streak for a while now, so I’m frustrated and it’s not just this game.

thanks for the tip, that is good to remember the next time someone starts complaining to me about dice, i will try to remember this.

[allweneedislove]

@Gamerman01:

Ahh, my luck is starting to turn…. slowly…

Still major tech drought  :-P

hey, keep your good rolls to other games.

this game should be reserved for all your shitty rolls.

[gamerman01]

Somebody’s gotta be there when my bad luck stops!  Might as well be a top echelon player like yourself, who has already dominated Russia!  :lol:

Will be gaming tonight

Won’t take much to do ANZAC and that other ally

Good to read your comments -

cheers

[boldfresh]

trust me allweneed.  you do not want to be the guy his bad luck streak ends on…  :-o

i submerged your russian sub in sz125.

if you would like to go sub on sub, please feel free to roll it via the dice server

[gamerman01]

Looks like my luck is back - that was a very lucky round for me!  :-D

Oh, by the way I think I have another good tip for you.
If you readily acknowledge your own good luck and your opponent’s bad luck, then they don’t have to do the complaining themselves  :-)
I mean, nobody likes their opponents to complain about dice, right?

[gamerman01]

And then the sub in 93 hit for 3??  WOW

[gamerman01]

Frenchies weren’t enough enticement in Z110 I guess  :-)

Yes the Red October is definitely going to fight

Rolls: 10@2; Total Hits: 210@2: (6, 4, 1, 6, 5, 6, 1, 4, 6, 5)Rolls: 10@1; Total Hits: 110@1: (5, 2, 3, 3, 5, 1, 6, 6, 4, 3)

[gamerman01]

Fight and lose

Maybe the Baltic fleet will fare better

[gamerman01]

Ooh, my luck is coming on, now…

Z113 your sub missed.  I hit with sub and cruiser both.  Scrambled 3 fighters, of course.  What do you lose?

I need to leave soon for the day…

[gamerman01]

Meant to attach the file

[allweneedislove]

lose the sub and destroyer

[gamerman01]

Just in time - I can finish this turn, then

[gamerman01]

Luck is back full force - you only hit me once  :-D

[gamerman01]

A fantastic lucky break.  Norway is probably secure for at least another turn
