2010-02-01 18:14:55 - Frankly, my dear: I am so lost. I am basically just trying to kill your guys.
2010-02-01 18:18:55 - Frankly, my dear: This is pointless. You clearly know, I have no clue. You win.
2010-02-01 18:19:21 - Frankly, my dear: I will finish as promised but you will need to speed play because this makes no sense to me.
2010-02-01 18:19:46 - Frankly, my dear: You are holding... I am not... etc. etc.
2010-02-01 18:21:08 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: ah, sorry, family.. .and was just playing games/

2010-02-01 18:26:20 - Frankly, my dear: Fair Gameplay? Not in the slightest.
2010-02-01 18:27:20 - Frankly, my dear: When a person asks simple questions regaurding the map, "Is the Middle East part of Asia?" You answer those questions unless you are an asshole.
2010-02-01 18:28:04 - Frankly, my dear: If you are an asshole that wants to beat chefs your response is, "Ask me after the game".
2010-02-01 18:30:49 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: hey,

2010-02-01 18:35:11 - Frankly, my dear: This map makes no sense.
2010-02-01 18:35:21 - Frankly, my dear: If it did, I would have been fine.
2010-02-01 18:35:31 - Frankly, my dear: You could have answered the basic questions.
2010-02-01 18:35:37 - Frankly, my dear: Like what defines a territory.
2010-02-01 18:35:39 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: Frank, I wasn't reading ALL your info during the game, but waited until AFTER
2010-02-01 18:35:53 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: a territory is 1 outlined piece
2010-02-01 18:36:06 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: a BONUS are colored groups.. .OR like kinds (flags)
2010-02-01 18:36:13 - Frankly, my dear: So what makes a group.
2010-02-01 18:36:41 - Frankly, my dear: So what do the 5 keys mean.
2010-02-01 18:36:44 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: 5 keys, because it IS complicated.. . .I don't invite ?-new-recruits to play ANY map
2010-02-01 18:36:47 - Frankly, my dear: Left to right, top to bottom/.
2010-02-01 18:36:56 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: you seem to stick to Classic.. . I offered something different
2010-02-01 18:37:18 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: Groups are same COLORS
2010-02-01 18:37:34 - Frankly, my dear: I do stick to classic. I can play other maps too.
2010-02-01 18:37:34 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: or Groups of FLAGS or 4 villages (listed on top right)
2010-02-01 18:37:41 - Frankly, my dear: But this is not a map.
2010-02-01 18:38:00 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: key in top left tells about HORSES and Cannonballs
2010-02-01 18:38:01 - Frankly, my dear: This is a very specific game and you could have answered my questions.
2010-02-01 18:38:08 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: Horses can move 2
2010-02-01 18:38:21 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: Cannons can ANNIHILATE far away,
2010-02-01 18:38:37 - Frankly, my dear: Yeah, I see that. Turns out they suck because I cannot attack the ones next to it.
2010-02-01 18:38:44 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: lol, they are ALL maps.. . this just happens to be more complicated
2010-02-01 18:39:08 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: Frank, when you lost you lost only 5 pts, I'd have lost 80. Should I make it EASY on you to win?
2010-02-01 18:39:15 - Frankly, my dear: Do they have more power?
2010-02-01 18:39:33 - Frankly, my dear: No, but you would have had no problem winning if you told me the basics.
2010-02-01 18:39:43 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: Artillery: CAN ONLY bombard those in target.. .doesn't say you can move, says ONLY
2010-02-01 18:39:45 - Frankly, my dear: I would have had far more to cosider than you and it would have cost me the game.
2010-02-01 18:39:57 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: Artillery can hit things 10 terr away
2010-02-01 18:40:07 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: AND lose NO armies doing it sometimes
2010-02-01 18:40:42 - Frankly, my dear: And the colors... How can you even tell them apart?

2010-02-01 18:45:02 - Frankly, my dear: You helped now, but durring the game you just wanted the win. You could have had it being nice, but it was more important than being helpful. Now that you have the points, the helpful comes. Thank you.
2010-02-01 18:45:34 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: Frank, you appeared to be a pretty good player, so I offered to play you here. If you didn't look strong, I'd have played you on a easier map
2010-02-01 18:46:04 - Frankly, my dear: I appreciate your help, thank you for the game. Good day.
2010-02-01 18:46:11 - Gen.LeeGettinhed: Frank, if I help too much too soon, I risk losing 16:1 vs you on pts

You know what I did after this? I saw him later in chat, I pm'd him an apology for being an ass in game chat, and admitted that it was MY OWN FAULT FOR PLAYING A GENERAL AT WATERLOO WITHOUT READING THE MAP. David and I are friends now. He has given me advice on many instances and I cannot think of a better way to lose 5 points. In the 3 days that followed he had taught me enough to launch my playing into the future. I am an eager learner with an excellent aptitude; that 5 points bought me 100 more. And it is still buying me more.
Here is my point, the people who WANT to play David over and over will, and there should be no restriction on them doing so. The people like me, who have had enough after the first time, will not play again. Although from time to time I joke with him about possibly doing a Waterloo FS...
Your accusation is clearly aimed at David, you are not trying to protect *netham*, you are not trying to help me, you are trying to hurt David and the only reason you are doing it is because you will naturally gain from it. Your accusation is SHITE, at best, it is selfish, conceded, self centered, and ignorant.
Ignorant: adj. Not knowing or having very little knowledge of.
