BOTA RD2 NWO Verq vs Seth

@gamerman01 said in Gamerman01 v TheGoodCaptain (+8) Loser bracket final:

I was unable to post the finished turn, and I went to my MARTI folder to make sure I was online, play by forum…

My last MARTI e-mail is 11/25, I guess that’s “only” 11 days ago and sometimes there are big delays. I made a test roll in a different game and it didn’t come through.

Anyway, I know I was in play by forum mode, the dice surely were live, and since I can’t conveniently post from TripleA right now, I upload the save file.

Sorry about the delay, thanks for your patience

You don’t have to worry about proving you were on the server. I know you were because when I open the file and select “play by email”, the emails populate and do not require that I put them in. If you had not been on the server, the file would have saved such that I would have to input the emails. Otherwise, yes - it randomly takes days for the dice to show up many times. I hope you didn’t waste too much time on that. No worries on any delay.

sent a chat so we don’t clutter up this thread

No problem. I will ask you next month for W@W game.

@The_Good_Captain

It took me awhile, but I see what you mean as the G1, G3, G4, G5 North Sea dice are not grossly out of whack all put together.

After the 1% G3 result, I would have continued if the prize was $5,000

We re-set, and played just for fun. G4 was lucky with 0 planes lost instead of “supposed to be” 2, which set up G5 situation.

After the 1% G5 result, I would continue if the prize was $5,000, but I’m not going to grind out a just-for-fun game trying to win, and I think it might even be insulting to continue against a strong player after losing 6/7 of your luftwaffe early in the game in that situation, to say I will show you that I can still beat you

:) :) I only post this because I think it’s fun and mutually enjoyable to talk about the game and situations we all looked at. Hope I’m not wrong.

@leemorrison You’re being polite. Yes I got my bomber and some air shot down during the first two turns but I overextended very badly with Japan, mostly because I underestimated the value the tanks would give you in terms of exploiting openings in my positions.

@elche I wonder what the purpose of this GB move is on turn one? Isn’t it better to go for Africa to secure another unit for Persia, since Japan’s Sub in Solomon Does it cover all entry to Australia?

I suppose he is waiting for Salomon’s sub to retire, to go to Australia and is he safe in that position?

@DoManMacgee Just to make sure you know, Classic has been added to the league (under play boardgames) so you can enjoy matching up with other Classic opponents to your heart’s content, supported by a community, moderator, league rules, and a rankings board

Get in on the ground floor!
