@max334 If you will allow, pls move my US Cr and Trn from sz91 and put them in sz86 with only an art landing in Brazil. Then move the UK trn from sz88 to sz87, landing the mech in French West Africa.
-
@max334 Sorry no. Part of the difficulty of the game is being able to visualize what the board will look like after a Round is completed. I will neither ask for or approve any edits unless they are related to TripleA game mechanic errors.
-
@max334 You performed an illegal move during the UK non-combat phase by flying the India fighter and tactical bomber to Syria; overflying Iraq. Per TripleA notes: (PE) You can not fly over unfriendly neutrals, unless they are being attacked or they have previously been attacked. Please correct via Edit and save a new file. The two planes may perform any other legal non-combat move you would like.
-
@AndrewAAGamer Understood, but it makes for a less than friendly game. I don’t particularly like playing unyielding people, but we will see. I’ll just count this as strike one.
-
@AndrewAAGamer We can just leave them in India. You can edit or I will on my turn.

Hi Max. I am sorry you feel that way. While I do not agree with your viewpoint I do understand it. I used to play online many years ago at AAMC and this actually was the reason I stopped playing there. Some players like to be loosey-goosey with their moves and ask for many edits. I personally will never ask for an edit. I figure if I make a mistake or forget to do something that is my fault. Why should I ask the other player to remove one of my mistakes? That is not fair to him or her. Since I never ask for an edit and other people did every time I granted one I felt taken advantage of. And when I did not agree to an edit the general response was the same as yours seems to be. I am the bad guy because I will not allow you to make a change that is not my fault; it is yours. Personally I do not think that is fair and I will admit it troubles me greatly. People tell me I am the nicest person they know. So why am I the “unfriendly” one and have a strike against me because I will not let you change something? That bothers me a lot too. I am not being unfriendly; I am just asking we follow the rules and have a level playing field.
While I agree that your request was a minor one as far as overall game play is considered the question is where do we draw the line? Do we allow edits to combat, purchases, within the same Power’s Turn or previous Power’s Turn? Do we allow any change as long as dice are not rolled? Or only before the other person has gone? What is allowed and what is not? Do I allow changes that are minor and do not affect game play, such as yours was, but not if it really affects game play? So I allow a move to be changed that I cannot take advantage of but I refuse an edit for a move that I can take advantage of? How is that fair? Does that not make me a hypocrite? Do I allow edits for people I play with that I like but not for people I do not like. People who are pushy get edits to shut them up where people who are nice about it do not get their edit requests granted? To me, it is important to be consistent and it is very stressful to have to make such emotional decisions.
I want to enjoy the game too without the emotional stress of edit requests. This is why on my original looking for a game post I put in the below. So hopefully what happened before at AAMC will not occur again are at Axis and Allies. I guess I needed to be more specific than what I said in my original post…
Looking for a Global 1940 2nd Edition OOB game. I guess I am tier 3 since this is my first game on this site and need 3 completed games to get a ranking.
Will be using League Rules as defined.
Perhaps this was not specific enough about my disinterest in doing any editing. I guess I need to add more detail as this is only my second game here at Axis and Allies and already I am having to face the emotional stress of “edit requests” again which I certainly do not enjoy and thus the length of my response to try and help you understand my perspective.
I have no interest in forcing you to play a game you will not enjoy. At the same time I want to be able to enjoy it too without any emotional stress. The idea is for both of us to enjoy some fun and competition.
I see three possible options:- If you would like to null this game with neither of us gaining a win or a loss I am fine with that.
- Since perhaps you did not understand my desire to not play with edits I will allow this edit request this one time and going forward there will be no further edit requests. I will not ask for a tit for tat edit request down the road.
- We come to some agreed edit request rules and clarifications that we both agree with for this one game. If we both agree to the standards ahead of time than we are following agreed upon even rules and perhaps if I make an error I actually will ask for an edit request then.
Please let me know which of the above options you would like to choose or perhaps offer a 4th option.
Thanks! Andrew…
PS. I will say though I value my own integrity by following the rules and being a good citizen I can say at times I wish I could be more like you. I do not like all the stress that comes with following the rules however that is how I was raised and lived my entire life. Following rules and being fair is important to me. I wish I could, at times, let it go as easily as others seem to be able to do that. Take care.
-
@AndrewAAGamer First, let me say thank you for your reply. I wholeheartedly agree with your position and think it could actually be fun playing you. By that I simply mean that I enjoy playing people that are focused, sincere and thoughtful. Your response reflects all that and more.
Second, let me say that this is a game and only a game. I believe games should be played for fun. They should not create the kind of stress that you have spoken about. I want to have fun and I want you to have fun. Yes league play, the keeping of win/loss tally and all leading to tournament play is stress invoking. And I, like most other players, like to win and I, again like most, play to actually get wins and not just for the fun of moving armies around :).
But let me get off my soap box… I’ve actually been a bad sport on a number of occasions or put in more realistic terms “a soar looser”
Yes, edits are for the benefit of the player making the request and hence to the detriment of the opposing player. So in an intense game were the stakes are high or perceived to be high edits probably should not be allowed.
I know I have much more to say on this matter, but I will hold for now as I want you to get my response ASAP. So for now let me just say that I do hope we can continue our game, but it really really must be under less stressful conditions. Pls consider allowing edits if no dice have been rolled.
Cheers my good friend and its good to know that my initial thoughts of you were wrong.

@max334 …I just remembered that in my first few games I used to make edits without even asking. I mean they were just harmless ones that usually happened because I forgot a move or something. Maybe I clicked done before thoroughly checking everything and then later saw the mistake before the opposing player started their turn. That’s the other exception to editing. If your opponent has taken their turn an edit is usually not acceptable.
-
@max334 … but, since then, I’ve learned to always ask for edits. So now I do, but then when they are not granted, I get upset. So my apologies.
