Orders coming up on Sunday
Sealed bid gives us both incentives to put in a number that we think is fair, and then end up getting something that is better than what we think is fair. Not as much thinking about what the other person will do.
Sure, if it is a tie, you get to choose sides.
Fine, fine. Do you ask Andrew? Do you want dice to be LL? I’ll let you know when I chose my bid.
@pacifiersboard regular dice. I have submitted my sealed to Andrew and let him know to validate it on Wednesday or later if you ask.
What is your Allies bid?
sure, that works. I actually find it a challenging way to bid and having little clue what an overall fair bid is I guess that I will end up with Axis… but 55 it is
May I ask the favor to continue with the game of this thread at least for a little while?
@pacifiersboard sure no problem. We can play as long as you want.
Need a pause for the next game bidding, or will you be able to decide before Wednesday?

I made many words, but I stick with 55 :)
@pacifiersboard I bid 56 so we are very consistent with our ideas
When we start next, you will be Allies for (55+56)/2 = 55.
oh, wow, yes - that doesn’t feel like a poor bid then!
just use as many opportunities as possible for blunder in the current game and we can start the next!! lol
I am doing the same with my match with Andrew. Make some mistakes and learn.
great, thx, was totally trusting in your integrity - but I would have confirmed, too

took some careful calculations to make sure Japan would not fall… harder than I thought initially.

Always good to confirm so you have 100% confidence that everything is honest before spending a few months playing the game.
I can confirm the sealed Bid of $56.
given this there is little left to do… and I am wondering what is more reasonable: to just give up or to bear the embarassment and ignore the odds first (I mean gratefully it is a game only but a naked nemesis is still deterrent)
@pacifiersboard Your call, but I tend to give up if Moscow falls and there is little hope to stop the march to Egypt.
alright, I wanna see the fireworks prior to shifting away.
Am I right to assume kamikaze in sz6 but no scramble?
And do you detach planes to intercept against 1 tac?
