A note to my partners and opponents: I'm still recovering from my move ("Hmm, what was in which box again?!") and have a crappy internet connection at the moment (telecommunication companies - either they're doing wonders or they seem to do nothing at all...), but I will send my turn eventually.


I fully understand you, Gkar I went through one last summer, and I don't want to rememeber it, something like a nightmare, even the fact that we moved to a bigger house until everything was in place it took a couple of weeks. Before moving I had works done in the house horrible...
My pc was unpacked two weeks later from the move.
So Gkars opponents, have some patient.

Hi everybody, and MrQuiet in particular...

I am interested in joining in, but lacking a "partner-in crime". Don't know if you have a free spot either.
So, if there is somebody out there to join me maybe we could throw a challenge?
(The towel may soon follow...)

So you finally decided to join Marshall Art Hhmm I knew it was not going to take you long to master the sequel to GGWAW --> AWD


edit: forgot to write the negative "not" which changes completely the meaning of the sentence

I am adding you to the list Marshall Art.
Hopefully others will follow.

GKar goodluck.
I remember my last move, and it certainly takes a while to feel you are back to normal.

Hi,

If not more than 1 game running at the same time then I'd like to join.

I would have think of a partner but he seems already in

At least I'll know a bit how he plays already not sure it will help me much

Cheers,

Marshall Art, you can take my spot if you like, I didn't make a move yet anyway. I don't have much time at my hands at the moment and made it to the second round of the 1vs1 tournament, so I fear that I'd be the bottleneck here once again.

Hmmm... GKar, I guess you will also be as slow playing our 2v2 game as well. If that is also the case, should we find a replacement for you?

Polonthi you would be involved in 2 games at once.
But do realize that 2 vs 2 is a very very slow game.
Playing 2 games of 2vs2 will probably consume less of your time per week than 1 game of 1on1.

Dobeln:
Yes indeed, the tournament has started and you should know that you are required to post in the appropiate threads here and here in the AAR section of the Forum.

Yes, that's what I meant. Marshall Art can take over for me if he wants, both games are untouched by me.

GKar, sorry to hear that. To add to the predominant topic in this thread :-)
I know too well what it's like to live out of boxes, been there - done that just months ago...
Did your games start already? If that is o.k. with the other players in the grid, so be it. In the end, I'll play whoemever MrQuiet puts me up against (and with...).

GKar, our messages crossed... You already answered my question I see. It took me 30+ minutes to post my message, someone must have stepped on the big Internet cable somewhere...
Sorry, I am sure I am not the first to ask - where can I find help on putting up a screenshot on the AAR, is there a preferred method, and size?

As per your request GKar I have replaced you with Marshall Art. I hated to do it because he and Polonthi made up a new team but I understand you are a bit out of your ellement right now with the move. If you decide before March 11 you want back in you are more than welcome to rejoin.

Mr Marshall Art could you please PM Avatar47 with you email address as he will be the one sending you files in Game 1.
You will be starting game 2 since you are the German player. Remember to use the Uncommon Valor Scenario. Also set the pbem up for 4 players with the same player playing Rus/China.

1. Once you are in the screen you want the picture from press the print screen button

2. Now open Paint => Start-> Accesories-> Paint

3. Paste: either "ctrl v" or at the tool bar: edit and then paste

4. Save as *.jpg where * is the name for the save file. Remember to change to jpg or otherwise it would be a bmp file, much bigger and you might not be able to upload it due to its size.

5. To post it, tic "Embed picture in post", then "Click here to upload" and select the saved jpg file.

More things can be done to the jpg file (retouching, resizing...), but these are the basic.
Also using a better tool than Paint would give thousand more options

I highly recommend Screenshot Assistant 1.3 however. It's free and with a few macros you can get your pic's saved and sent easily. Just google for it.

Waiting for your PM Marshall

mikemcmann should send you his turn (as a Jap.) to you (as a SU/CH), and in the second game Dahnyul (as a Jap.) should send you his move to you (as German)

edit: wrong WA-SU/CH

In Game 02 you are Playing Rus/China, you will recieve emails from Mikemcmann and will send them to BoerWar.

In Game 03 you are Playing Germany, you will start the game and send your German turn to BoerWar who will play Japan. You will be receiveing emails from Dahnyul in that game.

Make sure you start the game using Uncoman Valor scenario and set the game up for 4 players with the same player playing Rus/China

Clear?

MrQuiet,
Are you still looking for players, or are you fully subscribed? I can't quite tell from the thread. I didn't sign up originally due to a rather hectic work schedule, but the skies are clearing a bit now.

If there's still room, please put me down.
Cheers,
Tim

I would like to point out that I have redifined the rule on getting to the East vs West Scenario.

As long as the Axis Powers surrender before the end date (fall46) then the Allies will continue on in the East vs West regardless if the Allies won or lost the Uncommon Valor Scenario.

The point here is to cause as many East vs West games as we can.

OK Boys and Girls, I think I have decided on the trophy for first prize.

I have been undecided because I really wanted to find something that would symbolize the Cold War but I have found nothing that I really like.

So instead I think I am going to go with the 'Command Decision' trophy.

I can have up to 3 lines engraved with 50 characters per line.
If you would like to make suggestions on what should be engraved you can post here or pm me if you prefer.

On another note I am glad to see that all of the games are finally under way and most are progressing nicely for 2 vs 2.

Carry On and Happy Hunting
-MrQuiet

Hi Polonthi/tica

It looks like no other teams will be joining the 2 vs 2 tournament and that means your team will be matched to the first team in the list.

07) Polonthi-----------tica-----------------MrQuiet------------Avatar47------------1939 

Polonthi will be starting the game, remember to use Uncomon Valor Scenario and set it up for 4 players.
Good luck to you and your team.

I would like to inform all the tournament players that I will be away on vacation (my annual Harley Ride down to Bike Week Myrtle Beach SC) Sat May 12 - May 19

I expect to have no access to the interent except via my cell phone to check my emails.
All my pms on this board are fowarded to my email but I do not think I can respond to them that way.
So if any players need to reach me they can email me direct at MrQuiet67 at Yahoo.com and I will be able to reply in a limited mannor.
I will be making a bit of a effort while I am down there to find an internet cafe or something so that I can visit this forum.

Carry On
