Okay i think im ready!!

Im looking for a novice with similar experience of playing WITP as i do (Four weeks worth)

I dont want to play any Experienced players at the moment for the simply reason that ill get my ass kicked...and be laughed at!

I can play as the allies or Japan (Im not exactly the best jap player in the world)

Any takers?

PM me!

Gettin' your ass kicked is a good learnin' experience. I learned well from Wobbly in UV...

Getting laughed at by someone bigger and stronger than you is not...

I never let an opponent know that I'm laughing at him. He might realize that he's screwing up. You want them to keep making the same mistakes. At least until they figure it out themselves.

I will make oblique suggestions to guys I like though. Just to see if they're as smart as I think they are.

I believe there is a famous quote from some roman guy...

'Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake'

Actually, the quote is from Napoleon, commenting on the Duke of Wellington's
preparations just before the Battle of Waterloo. Apparently the "mistake" wasn't
quite what the Emperor thought it was....

For the moment i wont be playing any other PBEM, simply because it takes so long for me to upload files!

I started two games today (Sunk a BB in each!

) And will probably be starting one tomorrow...maybe two. (I feel four PBEM's at once may be too much to handle for a novice like myself, but we shall see!)

So thanks to all the guys who PM'd me

all four of them!
