Whackamatt (Axis) vs.Karl7 (Allies +6) - G40 14L

[Karl7]

The only game I have ever seen the USSR get Berlin.

Will the Axis fight on?

[Whackamatt]

Maybe if Japan had a fighting chance, but I think no.

[Karl7]

Ok.

GG

I can post.

:mrgreen:

[Whackamatt]

Already posted.

Say, I would like to do one of those game write-ups on a future game between us, and was wondering if you would be interested?

I’m interested more in the overall philosophy as opposed to 2 tanks here vs. 3 tanks, etc.  I imagine I would write up what I’m thinking, thoughts, concerns about your moves, etc. AS THEY HAPPEN.  Often times in the longer games it’s hard to remember what I was thinking on Round 3 when it’s Round 18.

What I’m not sure about is how to post such thoughts.  I don’t want to hold back on my commentary as I write, but I also wouldn’t want to give tips and advice to my opponent.  I’m not sure if there would be some way to post in a seperate thread other than the game, and have some kind of Gentleman’s agreement not to read the other persons thoughts until the end.  You seem on the trustworthy end of the spectrum.  :mrgreen:  (Good thing I don’t know you IRL, right?  lol)

Often times in my games I worry about very specific moves on my opponent.  “Oh man, if he combines this with that and attacks THERE, I am so screwed!”, and I’d love to document all that.  But I don’t want my opponent to read it and say, “Say!  I never thought of that.  Great idea.”  CRUSH

I also forsee self-analysis in later rounds.  “Man, I totally thought Karl was going to do THIS, but instead he did THAT.  Boy, was I wrong!”

What are your thoughts on doing something like this?  Any ideas?  Oh…and would you be willing?  I’ve done write-ups before just for myself.  :lol:  Maybe I should start sharing?

[Karl7]

That would be interesting, but I think we played at the league game we can this league.  :|

[Karl7]

Unless you want to go one on the non-league boards?

[Whackamatt]

Let’s make it a non-league game, so there’s no pressure to win  (We’ll just overlook that I’m 0/3 vs you this season  :-P)

I’ll give you Allies +6.  Let me know where you want the bid and I’ll start the game.  I’ll also start the discussion thread, and just post a link to our game thread so we don’t have to keep reposting turns.  I may try something with screenshots to illustrate what I’m talking about so everyone doesn’t have to keep downloading the files.

[Karl7]

Ok, PM me when you are ready.

So where would we post our strategy?

[Whackamatt]

I’m thinking in a sister thread.  Perhaps with a link in the game thread so we don’t have to keep searching for it.  Upload file, go to sister thread and post write-up.

[Whackamatt]

That way it seperates our thoughts and there’s no accidental reading of opponent strategies when you just want the game file, etc.  this should be fun!  (unless I lose, lol)
