[allweneedislove]

for obvious reasons, i did not offer the intercept in sbr in moscow.
if you would like to intercept you can roll via the forum and edit the results.

[Me1945]

for obvious reasons, i did not offer the intercept …

Agree, there is a strong reason for not asking and apriciate your mild sarcasm.  :-)

Personally I’d intercept. But, now it is not straightforward, if interceptors roll one hit.
In this case we should apply the first AA Gun dice result which missed (5), right?

@Me1945:

it was not sarcasm, we have a few days before a decision, and i am sure none of us want to wait a couple of days for an intercept order.

@Me1945:

i would have intercepted aswell but i did what is best for you guys.
you now have the benefit of seeing what the results of the sbr was before making your intercept decision.
we got one bomber shot down and the other did 2nd lowest damage possible.

so you can keep the results(it seems obvious to me that this is your best option)
or we can reroll the entire battle. (we would not keep the first aagun dice result[5] it does not make sense to decide which dice to keep and which to ignore as the dice are random and the decision to intercept is made based on predicting future probability of random dice)

[Me1945]

I don’t think you did anything wrong. Just wondering how you guys settled similar issues with the excessive rolls before. My approach is to keep the rolled results at possible extent. I saw a such situation only in one game in the site (between Garg and Jenn, if I’m not mistaken). Garg proposed to kee the first results in the list.

[Hank13]

In the past we have both always played how allweneedislove has stated, but to be honest I don’t think it really matters as the only thing in this case that may change if you scramble is that you may lose a fighter (or 2) and we may roll better on the bombing run.

in today’s day and age of “political correctness” i guess i’m not too acceptable huh alex.  no one should ever be allowed to say that someone did something ridiculous right?  and yes, i called you out for only taking games with tier 3 and 4 players.  i don’t know why, there could be a perfectly valid reason, like you have a heart condition or fragile ego, i don’t know.  but the truth is, you only take games with players below you in the rankings - for whatever reason.  Now a guy like Allweneed who is playing Tier 1’s left and right, i got respect for that.

i just hope the ancients lose before the last chance bracket final so the game will move at a reasonable pace.  :lol:

I think the point Alex was making (and Zigg, Me1945, etc.) was/is have your opinions, just keep them to yourself or at the very least your own forums. Please don’t respond to this, I really don’t care.

guys like alex and me are far too uptight, i just like to mess with them.
