2022 BM Playoff R2 Me1945 v Gamerman01 (+24)


  • @farmboy Is there a hot line to place a ticket? Please share.


  • @Me1945 I’m not sure. You can probably reach out to Panther or post in the forum discussion page https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/category/15/website-forum-discussion. Because the problems seem pretty widespread, I’m assuming that they will be aware pretty quickly and fix it.

    Thanks, farmboy. Just post/sent PM to Panther / djensen. Hope it’ll help.
    Gamerman, as the moderator, can you please advise what is the best way to settle such the issues?

    What a smack in the mouth, you pop back in and call me out for hypocrisy! :fearful:

    It was a nice break for a while, here. Without you or Bold, nobody has been poking me.
    A guy can adjust his strategy a little over the years, right?

    Yes, absolutely. There was no poking intended, just the opposite. I wanted to share once more who taught me countless lessons in A&A and whose style always inspired me:)

    (You are most welcome to comment as long as it doesn’t interfere with Me1945’s zen, don’t get me wrong)

    <cough> I bought only 2 in the Pacific theater, though. The carrier buy US1 in the Atlantic is especially when I scramble G1 because Carrier can go out to sea with 2 planes US2 and that is the only way you can get fighters to London or Scotland US3 (crazy JDOW1’s excepted). I don’t know if anyone else ever takes advantage of the little 102 while USA is neutral rule :sunglasses: - I take some pride in that one.

    I also like to think no one goes as light in the Pacific with carriers as I do but of course I can’t know that for sure either. :thinking_face:

    I agree no one goes lighter with Carriers than you and as said, I only wanted to express this always reminds me not to overbuy them. Always ask: what juice boats with attack value, planes or amphibious units I can buy instead:)
    Vs J3 there isn’t much the US can buy in the Pacific and as the German fleet is still active, Allies need at least some kind of naval defense when trying to join the action in the European theatre.

    Interesting game so far, will be fun to watch.
    Good luck to both of you. See you around!

    Ah and regarding no attachments can be posted: Back then, this happened frequently when the forum server was simply full.

    I guess the admins have to run a purge and remove attachments from older games, that’s why, in case you browse the forum to look up older games, you won’t find any attachments in those threads.

    It’s a good idea to not let the USA roll dice on the 4th of July


  • @Me1945 Tested twice - it doesn’t work

    They did maintenance yesterday

    Have a fun 4th, Me


  • @gamerman01 Oops, just saw farmboy/booper/JDOW posts that were before mine. I agree with them - when the upload function fails we just wait a day or two.

    Upload works for me now!

    Sure. Will try to get you rolling dice on the 7th of December.:blush:


  • What is wrong with my notifications?

    I’m just now seeing you did J4.

    If you come to Z26 with 5 fighters and 5 tactical bombers and I have a battleship, cruiser and destroyer, you will do well.

  • 2024 2023 '22 '15 '11 '10 Official Q&A Moderator

    Didn’t make a difference this time, but
    friendly reminder that amphibious assault battles must be rolled first, thanks

    (nod to @JDOW for teaching me that years ago)


  • Spend kamikazes at the Marianas?

    Will most likely need casualty choice at 91, but didn’t roll yet because I thought you might not appreciate that roll being done on the forum. Just playing it safe.

  • @gamerman01
    Please scramble two kamikazes.
    And wherever you roll the dice, let’s go step by step in sz91. Probably I won’t be able to respond immediately.

    Absolutely


  • Kamikaze hit, I assume Japanese submarine submerges


  • Subs miss, but 3 hits from the rest.

    Your choice?

  • @gamerman01 Damage AC & BB, lose sub

  • '21 '20 '18 '17 '16 '15 '14 '13

    I assume Japanese submarine submerges

    Correct


  • Thank you
