Confused about where to post

@superbattleshipyamato

Thank you for the question. It definitely raises awareness of this feature.

@akreider2 said in Editing our Posts:

I see I can edit my own posts in this forum if I click on the three dots.

I want to be able to edit my posts in all forums, including the play by forum one.

Actually, I can edit my above post, as well. It is in the Play Boardgames forum that I cannot. And again, it is the mislabeled title that I wish to fix, in this case.

Actually, the primary reason is spam. In some situations, IL is correct but yes somebody’s first post could be a link to a map so that you could talk about strategy.

10 posts is either very hard or very easy but I think if you dive in and respond to a few posts in a constructive manner, you’ll find it’s quite easy. One idea is to revive a really old conversation with your ideas on it.

@Imperious:

Because we don’t want spam. Your first post and you want a link usually means you could care less about this site and just want a shout out.

Just post about the game in some meaningful way, sharing your ideas, strategy.

That does not require a link

If you have more posts than the secret magic number, then your posts will skip spam filtering.

This is new.

Yea, and it’s still in the shop too.

Here’s the sit (pronounced “sitch”)

I run off a laptop all the time.  A 90 watt power supply uses significantly less power than a 600 watt power supply, especially if you leave your machine on 24/7 like I do. (Yes, I know, the damage from power up/power down is no longer significant like it was in the late 80’s and the old 8086 processors (80386 DX, 80486, etc)).

There is a lot of construction going on in my neighborhood atm.  The home owner’s association decided to reside and reroof all the units, so as you can imagine, the air is about as polluted as the air in Bejing China atm!

The system fan (that would be the big fan in the unit, not the heat sink/fan on the processor) got clogged with debris and the brushes (the things that make the fan blades move) wore out so the fan does not blow anymore.  Thus, the system builds up heat (despite the external cooling pad I had under it) and shuts down to prevent damage to the processor.

The unit is under warranty still, but since it is a laptop, they cannot just send me a fan to pop in there.  They have to remove the hard drives and RAM and put them into a completely new enclosure (yay me) which of course means a complete format and reload of the software (yay me again) before they can send it back.

So that’s what’s goin on.  (Yay me.)  So I get to sit in a library and try to get posts in every so often (yay me) but I have not disappeared!

I have canceled all my competition games at AAMC because there are time limits and new rounds of the tourney have to start, etc.  I’m confident that league games I have here will be fine to continue, since we technically have until at least December 1st to complete or get close to completion for the year.

I do ask that if it has been a few days (ie a week) and I have not posted, or you see I posted somewhere but not in your game, you bump it because by the time I get back, there are 13+ pages of new posts to go through and I sometimes miss games.

Thanks

Well then post over in the “Theory v. Experience” game topic. I didn’t think this dance card would fill up so fast…

Whipped, eh? well my wife has been starting to resent washing dishes while I am hunched over my laptop scheming the demise of DarthMaximus. Much like I recall your GF tidying your kitchen last weekend while we had our sortie at your house… She probably wouldn’t be as jolly about it after 5 nights in a row…

We’ll have to rename this game from “Theory v. Experience” to Winnipeg takes on THE WORLD! Bwuahahahaha! :evil: But this is for the other thread, before I get moderated again  :-o

Turn 1

Buy 2 transports and 3 Infantry Take E. China with all available fighters and Infantry except one infantry in Manchuria and one in Burma Attack Pearl Harbour with All Avaliable Naval Unit (except Transports) and 2 Fighters and Bomber Load Guys in French Indo China Burma

countinue moving west so that you get to the border of Moscow by Turn 4. By this time you should take some transports take Hawaii, New Zealand and Austrailia. You should begin moving guys into the middle east and then later Africa.
