@arathorn:

You don’t get to complain anymore about dice for the rest of the 2013 league year.

First against Gamerman and now against me…. Lol ;)

Yeah, I guess it was ~44IPC below average. I wanted to put a high price tag on Shan state but did not expect it to be that high.
Without the poor decisions in Europe I would have a decent position.
Now I have a decent Pacific and a very bad Europe position and my last joker - to blame the dice - is now gone;)

[JDOW]

I btw cannot promise the big US/ZH/UK block to be done today, sorry.
Have to do US/ZH/UK vs gamerman first and they are both (especially US vs gamer and UK/ZH vs you) quite complicated, as usual.

Shan State was annoying, but I actually still feel that I am doing ok in Pacific, and very well in Europe. You will certainly feel the difficulty of not having london produce for minimum 2 round, if not more.

I understand. Of course, I am VERY impatient to continue this game, since I especially like the European map, but I know you have BIG moves ahead of you. Especially in Pacific. You really need to get the job done there quickly, before Germany gets a win on the European map. Russia is about to receive some real beating ;)

And you should feel honoured - I have prepared an especially painful move that you are NOT going to like ;) hehe

[arathorn]

I have not forgotten you. I’m getting married on the 12th of October, so I am a little busy these next few days, and then, after the 11th, I will be gone for a week and a half completely. Just giving you a heads up.

Alex

[JDOW]

Well…afaik one should not congratulate before the big event happened. But I am married myself and know how busy one can get few days before the wedding.

All of luck that everything goes as you wish it.
