[Karl7]

The most insulting was the last roll where it was my BB vs your ftr and I missed.

[snake11eyes]

Actually according to the bcalculator once you lost a cruiser to a kami you were only a 35% chance, I think it actually worked out very well for you to kill as much as you did

[Karl7]

really?  Just losing a cc could swing it that much???

hmm, I will check

[Karl7]

Hmm, DS Kelly says it wold swing to 47 for me… geeze, hard to believe…

[Karl7]

well, you won this game when I forgot to move my Brit dd to block your fleet from taking India… that was an inexplicable error by me

[Karl7]

also, I am stating to come of the opinion that the game needs reforming.  The US went all in against Japan and still could not break them even by R7.  That is crazy.  A 12 bid is too low.  I should have gone for 20.
