14L G40 Bold (allies +17) v Cow (axis) - game 2

[Jennifer]

In regards to edits, I say any edit required to abide by the rules (such as moving a carrier to pick up planes that have no other legal landing zone) has to be allowed if the carrier can legally make it there (i.e. was not in combat, or some other disqualifier to moving to pick up the planes.)  This is in accordance to the rules of the game.

All other edits are at the consent of your opponent.  It is, ultimately, the player’s responsibility to make sure the map is the way he (or she) wants it to be before finally posting it.  Honestly, it is one of the things I dislike about TripleA because sometimes you don’t see something until you start placing units and if you go back it says “EDIT” on it.  So generally, I am inclined to allow any edits in the final post without quibble, as long as they were done through TripleA and were posted along with the NCM, Place Units and Collect Income phases.

League Rules on Edits:  Edits are allowed after placing the last post of your round as long as they occur before the next round begins.  In this situation, it seems it would behoove Boldfresh to immediately type “starting my turn now” right after he sees Cow is finished with his turn.  At that point he could insist that Cow not make a non-com edit (provided the edit does not conflict with those needed to follow the rules of the game.)

The way I see it, something like:

German Round 5
I have 108 IPC to Spend
(more to follow)

That clearly stipulates you have seen the map as it is, you are planning your turn, and you would not appreciate any changes at this time.  The point of editing is to catch something you missed in the heat, not something you noticed a day later, in my opinion.

So there, that is my opinion, as asked for by Bold.  It is in concurrence to Gamerman’s of course. 
As of now, I am giving Cow until 5 PM EST (GMT -5) to make edits, then Boldfresh may post Russia 3.

[boldfresh]

looks like we are good to go then.  R3 posting soon.

The UK fighters and tac that were lost over Burma belong back on the board.  The aircraft must be landed during noncom and can not be lost.  It should not even be an issue.
