If we ever do this again, we need to accumulate total points rather than just wins.
I just had a guy get a 10 pt advantage and fled. No tmuch I could do.
This counts the same as the game where I destroyed every ship.
Across the two games, I basically have double the points.
The way straight W/L is handled in the on-line game has always been shoddy at best and folly at worst.
Read the rules before platying... and speaking!!!
If that is the way you want to "win", that is fine by me. There are lots of ways to "win" at games that I find unacceptable in terms of how I choose to conduct myself. As my father often said, 'it is not whether you win or lose but how you play the game'.
I am guessing this might not be your mantra.
And you are still a lilly-livered paintwaist for running when you are ahead. None of the players here that I respect do that.
The point really was that simple W/L is a poor metric of how well someone did and we should improve it next time. Especially when we are all playing exactly the same scenario.
