That’s one of the happiest ASLer I know.
I know that you and Fish coined the term ‘jick’~ combo jerk/dick so I want to share another term. While playing ‘Fire in the East’ we had to count up flak factors and my friend accidentally coined the perfect word: ‘flaktor’. The game stopped for like five minutes of laughing. From then on we would say, maybe giggling, ‘How many flaktors do you have in that hex ?’ Good times.What would you like to hear from your opponent? Maybe you won, maybe you lost, your choice or answer for both outcomes.
For me it would be:
" That was really a fun scenario and we both learned a lot. Let me open this bottle of wine and you set up the scenario again. "
Happy Mothers of Invention Day to everyone.
Gary are you sure about the bills denomination's,That's a million in $100 bills...not as big as most folks think. A million in $1000 bills is only 10 bundles of bills (would make a single stack about 7" tall.

Gary are you sure about that? My eyesight isn't what it used to be but each bundle seems to be 100 million.That's a million in $100 bills...not as big as most folks think. A million in $1000 bills is only 10 bundles of bills (would make a single stack about 7" tall.

I hate that freaking dicebot!

There is one in every room. If you can’t figure out who it is, it’s you.The jick flaktor!
That was my friend and great wargamer Jim Gainer. He pasted away awhile ago. He would count up the entire front and then attack most efficiently, making every factor count. I learned alot from Jim and incorporated some of his strategies into my own repertoire making me a better wargamer.Gary are you sure about the bills denomination's,

Jick was actually combo of : jackass + dick.
Fish called it as he saw it.
Flaktor! That's funny!
The dicebot was worse than usual yesterday Joe, ask Tom, made your infamous dice streaks look tame!Ahhhh.. I am blind!!
I played today. Robert's dice on turn one: 11, 11, 12, 11, 11, 12, 11. It wasn't good. On the day, he averaged > 8 over 50 rolls. As people say, the dice even out <rolls eyes> -- jimThe dicebot was worse than usual yesterday Joe, ask Tom, made your infamous dice streaks look tame!
I don't mind a few high dice rolls, just not all at once in a playtest, sort of defeats the purpose but we'll
just switch sides and try again next week, at least we were playing ASL and having fun, no matter the evil bot, Vic.
I am running along that same streak. I have 3 Live VASL games going now and I absolutely guarantee my avg. DR is at least 7. I am rolling boxcars like it is cool. My opponents (not all of them) are rolling 3, 4 very often. It gets very frustrating.The dicebot was worse than usual yesterday Joe, ask Tom, made your infamous dice streaks look tame!

YES!!!!I played today. Robert's dice on turn one: 11, 11, 12, 11, 11, 12, 11. It wasn't good. On the day, he averaged > 8 over 50 rolls. As people say, the dice even out <rolls eyes> -- jim
Right. Because when rolling physical dice that never happens.The dice bot is absolute crap. It gets locked into one side getting somewhat low rolls and the other side gets somewhat high.
