Default Re: Noobs are gone frenzY - Late Age - (Running)

UI development might have been better there but it is indeed a strategic mistake if one _lacks situational awereness_ on to whom he/shes is sending such a delivery. this is (the simplest form of) risk management: if you feel uncertain of what you did you can always redo your turn. On the other hand, if you r sure you did the right thing (or unsure that you did but lazy to make sure of it by playing the turn again) you go forth and send the 2h-file. the outcome is on you.

everyone makes mistakes, no argue on that - however there are more drastic mistakes done on regular basis, and no compensation received for them. being sloppy is being sloppy, theres no shame in winning a game, battle or war because your enemy is one. mistake causing a (major) default is strategic - from the perspective of the one who gains, at least. enemy, in a game and in a real life, is free to take advantage of it.

but like I said, very noble, indeed.

The only thing I personally would have sent back is a thank you -note being assured that nex time the sender pays more attention on what hes doing. Of course, I would be happy to sell them back with discount.........maybe.
