Are we playing each game as a team effort or are we actually playing the person listed as our opponent and is the person listed as our opponent actually the person playing the game? Questions to ponder

how old is filin?

3.dav11 - Placid.

Very,very interesting game.Look at the screen-short.David (dav11) catch Jim (Placid) in the centre of the map.Actually Placid`s biggest allies dont have a good attack.They are "swaddled".David has 2 % anvantage already!Well,well,if not super-Placid then who will gives the victories for West Team?


P.S. Vladimir Filin 53 or 54 years old -I think he will not takes offence if I say

that makes me the oldest by about 8 years--i feel lucky that i still can remember what button turns the computer on--who am I playing again and what map--what game is this anyway and how do you play it -- is there some sort of nuclear option?:wink:

Ich begrüsse, teuere Freunde! Mir die 54 Jahre.

I think placid will still have a few tricks up his sleave....
Trinity is a big map - and there are still lots of secrets left to reveal.

I was up to 98% once.... and Lost...
(now that takes talent).

As for who will win in the west - I made an awesome move on my red turn (sic) - but have not received any response... very hard to get ahead if I can't make any more turns...

But - I chose 14 day turn limit and will wait patiently.
No rush (as long as the whole of EAST does not gang up on me).

Are we supposed to help out team mates.. (I hope not - I can hardly keep up with my games... let alone help a whole team of players).

Le-Roy - Please clarify this.

Any prgress reports from Morn v Aghepu?

How many players solicit advice from others in making game turns?
I have enjoyed another player "looking over my shoulder" and making comments regarding the situation.
Generally speaking it is a rarity and I have never won or lost a game because of any advice.
I am happy with knowing that I win or lose my games, and if another player would be "pulling my strings" he might as well be the one playing and the credit goes to his username, not mine.
Storm and I have done a little of this "aiding and abetting" and he knows that neither one of us has ever relied on this to win or lose, and we're both too hard-headed to really take anyone else's advice.

True - I have had a peek at some of my friends games - and made suggestions - most have been ignored - and the rest they would have come up with anyway.

Most players like to play their way or the highway.

Works for some (AHgpeu/Morn ) better than others (Me)

Seems like many on the east's team have not made any moves. I have this picture of Jedi feeding floppy disk after floppy disk of west team layouts into his brand new IBM 286 --capable of literally 10s of thousands of calculation per minute,and while this is a substantial upgrade from the old atari 400 team USSR furnished to it's Arab allies as tank fire control computers , it is probably still a little lacking in speed in trying to come up with a detailed attack plan (other than ask ahgepue) as to how each east team member should play their game. But, as Ravermister said, we must be patient, I am sure the proper fireing solution will soon be coming and game progress will commence
I may have some memory dimms for that 286 somewhere in a box in my basement--i could air them over if it would help!

IS this better than my Commodore-64 ? With memory expansion board!

Yup, I'm still patiently wating for this Filin guy to get started. Tick tock!

I think the Russian version of star buck's has free coffee and donuts on the first of the month, along with free wifi, so they may all be waiting for Feb 1st (or for Jedi's 286's fire control solution--would be quicker to just ask ahgepue)

Nobody in Eastern team are going to ask AHgrey. Each player have it's own head for that to make turns without AHgrey's help.
Some players for example Bambr and others are really busy. So Western team pleace be patient and waiting your turns.

We were just giving a hard time, comrades!
Please, everyone, enjoy the war.
Let's fight in peace.
Good luck.

My post have been in jest and in an apparent failed attempt at humor! Le_Roy has been giving it to us in his posts so we wanted to give it back a little, sorry if it was taken the wrong way. We all know that Jedi does not really use a 286, those were all taken for fire control system in the migs

Its not a problem -sure,players from top-50 cant play like "lend me your brains" and "move my tanks".But this is a team match,if one of my team-mates ask me to make an opinion about his game,I will do.Team spirit.

But who can ask me?Most of them play much better then I.

Let the cheating begin!

Funny, no one has asked me for my opinion either
BTW--just for the record (since some of you seem to have way thinner skins than i thought) I don't really think you are all asking AHgrey how to play your games

continue to comment the interesting moments in the games .....

Tiger - t555t

Why does t555t hurry so much?He still doesnot conquer the 8 $ country,but already attack the 12$ one.Risky game or the mistake?mmm...If Tiger`s guerilla will annihilate robot and tank and Tiger disclose the 8 $ next turn?Many,many problems for t555t.So I will change my forecast to 2-2.
