  1. We all flip out once in a while, at least you did not go beheading anybody like ninjas do. And they never make apologies. But ninjas are cool (and by cool I mean totally sweet) and do not give a damn about rules, banning and stuff. Welcome back. Are you going to resume the Titan's tourney?

  2. Remember when shortly before the release of CMBO, Berlichtigen offered to play every single scenario PBEM against anybody who signed up to do so? Will anybody try to duplicate his feat (and I have no idea if he finished all the games)?

    We didn't have a list of scenario names at the time, just the number of battles that came on the CD. So people lined up to play scenario #1, #2, #3, etc.

    Anyone challenge me to scenario #1? Double blind please. And I live in Australia, so I will take a while to receive my pre-ordered copy.

  3. One of the great things about CM - PBEM is that there is no way to cheat. It makes all the ladders, tournaments, etc that more attractive and legitimate. Even if you are not a cheater, when something goes to well, the shadows of suspicion might always fall upon you.

    It might be a lot of work to redo your turn all over again, but I suppose someone could just play out the most important combat of the turn first, say like the attack on Stalingrad. If that does not work, he could just redo it. It's sad when people cheat, but it is so much more confortable when you don't even have to worry about the possibility of someone doing it, and above all, somebody thinking you might have cheated.

    Unfortunately at this time I do not know how the PBEM and game works well enough to present suggestions to prevent cheating. But if there is a more cumbersome time-taking manner to do it, this could always be optional.
