skelley Posted May 30, 2002 Share Posted May 30, 2002 I know this post doesn't belong here but I lost your email address. When are we gonna kick off our proposed battle. I believe we agreed it would start sometime in may. When ever you are ready, stop by TournamentHouse Chat or email me.....skelley1@cinci.rr.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fionn Posted May 30, 2002 Share Posted May 30, 2002 Skelley, Cool by me. I'm in a rush right now but I'll drop you a line tonight and we can get started k? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larsen Posted May 30, 2002 Share Posted May 30, 2002 My money are on skelley. Do you guys plan to post an AAR somewhere? Maybe on thforum.com site? Larsen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwolf Posted May 30, 2002 Share Posted May 30, 2002 I'd like to bet, too. What are the parameters for the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtweasle Posted May 30, 2002 Share Posted May 30, 2002 How about - even money, straight up win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWB Posted May 30, 2002 Share Posted May 30, 2002 I think we need to know the parameters of the engagement before setting the line. When I have those in hand, I will consult with some other nefarious characters and give the official line. WWB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fionn Posted May 30, 2002 Share Posted May 30, 2002 LOL! And the above is precisely why I wanted to keep the game and results private. Still, you guys are great. MAD but great!

Redwolf Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 Ah, skelley should defend ours colors nicely. What we really need (no offense to either player) JasonC against Fionn, and every email, including all comments, all PBEM moves, with passwords, CC'ed to The_Capt, who will do a life reportage here on the forum for our amusement. "Why don't you attack. The flank with your Schlumpfpanzer is wide open?" "It can't pay off, statistically, and besides the Schlupfpanzer costs too many knockout points" "Now I'm getting mad". SMG counterattack follows. Precise shells with lots of probablities drop on single men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skelley Posted May 31, 2002 Author Share Posted May 31, 2002 Thx Larsen and Red:)...I will do my best to defend the TH name. Fionn I watched your AAR movies...you should walk through that defense as if you were playing the AI. No offense warren:). Sorry bout going public with the Titanic Struggle we are about to embark fionn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skelley Posted May 31, 2002 Author Share Posted May 31, 2002 Oh....by the way Dirtweasel....I have never played you unless you go by a different name at TH. So you don't know my amazing skills:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fionn Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 Skelley, NP. FWIW though I don't understand what you are saying about walking "through" that defence. Walking "through" FJs entrenched in a town? Unless I really DO have psychokinetic powers and make all my men impervious to bullets I don't see that happening. I, personally, thought Warren's defensive setup warranted praise and actually singled it out as being something people could learn from. Interested to hear how you think one could walk through it? I simply don't see it. Redwolf, re: JasonC... As a peddler of "obscurantist nonsense" and a schizophrenic ( both according to JasonC) I can say with absolute certainty that no game between us will ever occur. He's one of about 4 or 5 people I simply won't play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwolf Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 We want the show! We want the show! We want the show! If you would please be so kind to CC: me your PBEM moves and passwords, I'll keep the crowd informed. Much appreciated, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsenal Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 Hehe,I don't think there's been this much interest in a pbem challenge since Kiwijoe's infamous post "I've won so many games,I'm getting bored". I'm with Redwolf,We want the show! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSpkr Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 Give me ten bucks worth fo that action. I'll back Fionn (who, by the way, has owed me a setup since that Invitational Tourney fell apart lo so many moons ago). Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xerxes Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 $10 on Fionn, should be a great match though going down to the wire. -marc s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fionn Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 Umm, I haven't said I'll let anyone see this or do an AAR (ever). Skelley can do whatever he wants of course but I need to consider the negatives ( absolutely immense) and weigh them against the positives ( I see none as of now). I just don't want people thinking I've promised something I haven't and then feeling betrayed later on.

WineCape Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 Fionn, I'm happy to sponsor a double round match in the near future (playing Axis and Allies against the same opponent on different maps) to settle THE CHAMPION once and for all. It will be at most a 4/5 man tourney, consisting of the Champions of other tournament websites [Wreck, Ghost, Swamp etc.] If interested, let me know.
