How did you do that? 19 minutes?
I knew I needed to hurry up and get that edit in, but

Wow.

[gamerman01]

I guess you had it all planned out and Russia’s moves in relation to Japan could be anticipated.

[gamerman01]

Sorry, 17 minutes. 🥴

[gamerman01]

You went so fast you didn’t see my edit file? I knew I’d better hurry, but

What can I say? 😲

[gamerman01]

Sorry, several posts, that’s how my thoughts come -

Thanks for allowing my fighter edit.

[gamerman01]

I know you probably meant to leave the sub off West Africa to make me try and come and get it, but

Did you by chance forget it since it was out of sight like my Russian fighter?

[Adam514]

I did forget it, I meant to move it to sz84, thanks.

[gamerman01]

Of course,
And I’ll get it for you

[gamerman01]

Hi Adam,

I think I can squeeze in the big move today before leaving tomorrow morning for a big weekend family reunion that’s 7 hours away…

Fortunately it’s mostly North so we should be enjoying approximately 8-10 degrees less hot, like your Japs in Russia

It’s possible I get to UK9 and if your I9 is fast again then F9 could be done before I leave, not that it’s a race. Farmboy has a lot of patience, he uses that super long slow anaconda strategy all y’all use 🐍🐍🤔🙂

<cough> and obviously you have a lot of patience too, because I’m sure you’re looking forward to playing for another championship but my slowness is in the way

[Adam514]

No worries and no rush.

[gamerman01]

During NCM of USA, I realized I forgot to make the airstrike attack in China that I intended,

Had been focused on the Pacific Ocean and European theater, forgot the little planes in Tiny Tim(guska)…

I’m sure you don’t mind, and it’s probably going to backfire anyway. The battle did not depend on the results of the other US rolls, I just forgot it when it was time.

My belief in independent events has been shaken, but yet I believe that all prior events have absolutely nothing to do with this next die roll.

[gamerman01]

Oh. Don’t want them attacking China anyway, so no change, no edit, no forum rolling

[gamerman01]

[gamerman01]

Not sure you realize it’s your turn, since my posting of a turn is just one little line
Not that I’m in a hurry, it’s been nice knowing it’s not my turn, finally

[Adam514]

Oops yes, will move soon.
