Hmm, I actually hope you’re correct...,but, this happened three times, with three different people after about 8-10 moves in each time. The thing is I’m very fastidious about these kind of things and after it happened the first time I was personally careful and even mentioned it to my opponents(two of them were experienced PBEMers as well). So it seems unlikely that I did anything careless more than the first time. So I guess I could be extreme co-incidence that this happened in all three games? Well, I’m playing another one and I’ll see what happens and I hope anyone else will post if they have any ideas or similar problems.
Thanks you Fionn for your prompt response, hope it was just bad luck/wacky odds. Let me know of any developments...
