Sure seems like you were accusing him of cheating to me, when you asked him to restart as a server game? Why do that unless you are basically accusing him of cheating?

And maybe he was cheating, but you haven't really provided any reason to think so other than the fact that you are not doing as well as you usually do, even though you didn't do anything different. But I don't understand why you would expect to have the same results against different opponents, using different strategies, etc.?

I think it's always the easy way out for people that don't want to believe they are losing to suggest that their opponent must be cheating because he's winning. I remember when I use to play Counter Strike, way back in the days. It didn't take long before somebody would accuse you of cheating if you were doing well and piling up the kills. I'm sure people can relate to the ignorant comments of 'you must be wall hacking' or 'stop using that aim-bot' or even 'turn off your shield hack'. For me it was actually a good laugh and took it as a compliment because I was doing so well they thought I was cheating when I was not.

I've followed this AAR and I can see some of the mistakes that Sveint has made, although it would be nice to see more from the perspective of a Soviet AAR. I know jzardos started one recently, maybe he can still bring it up to speed. I'll post on it and see.

For me if you're going to even dip into the realm of accusing somebody of cheating, you better darn well have some proof. Otherwise, as one already mentioned, you're just going to look like a sore loser. [:-]

Seeing all the unapproving comments I really don't see why I write AARs.

There needs to be respect and friendship between two opponents for email games to work, so choose your opponents carefully.

How many times did he have to be asked for the password to be sent to you?

One. Even though I had to check my spam folder since I've had to block Jason's emails to me. He can contact me here in PMs if he ever needs to.

Sorry to see some of these comments from all sides and to see a game end this way.  Not to take sides but it seems that frustrations on both sides caused this falling out.  Hope this doesn't sour your like for the game sveint.

Sveint,

You seem to have some sort of misplaced attitude that you did nothing wrong and are clueless why anybody should be upset with your actions. Am I perceiving this correctly? Not sure if I missed it, but did you even once apologize for just leaving the game with such, IMO, rude comments? From what was remarked earlier, you had some initial agreement to play through to the end with jzardos? I don't care for people that feel they never do any wrong and are above making an apology at times when making a bad decision. The irony is, when you mention 'choose your opponents carefully', you're actually warning people about playing against somebody like you. I certainly would never take a game up with you as you've demonstrated being unreliable and somewhat rude. Just how I see it as we're all entitle to our opinions.

As far as an AAR, nobody is putting a gun to your head to make a WitE AAR. It's purely a personal choice, so I suggest if you don't see any reward for doing it, don't do it. [;)] But complaining about making an AAR is just silly.
