RE: Advice please

Post by bigred »

Hi All. I produced an allied turn about 11pm. I then fell asleep. I woke up at 1130pm, then ended and locked the unprocessed pure allied turn then emailed it to FatR.

So next morning I get an email from FatR and he asked my why I did not send surface units after his KB. I thought I had.

So I looked at the file. I sent FatR the pure allied unprocessed turn in locked format. I immediately sent him the processed turn within 15 minutes of receipt of his replay and email comment.

If we play the unprocessed turn I loose two CVs. If we play my processed turn FatR looses 700 planes.

What should I do.

1. Play on with the unprocessed turn.

2. Ask FatR to except my processed turn.

3. Ask fatR to redo his turn.

Seems the right thing to do, but damn, bummer.

What would FatR want if the tables were turned?
In my game with him we've both sent the turn a second time with additional orders, although only once each and before knowing the results of the replay.

Option 3 would be fair on both sides, option 2 would not assuming you saw the replay before sending the processed file. Option 1 would suck but the error was yours so sometimes you just have to "it up"

i think you have to play the turn you first sent. it was your error unfortunately. gotta own it, which sucks i know. but once a combat replay is engaged its no going back unless he's ok with it. then you have to be willing to do the same if it happens for him etc.
