Default Re: A funny opponent

I vaguely remember my first PBEM game. I was very unsure about what I was doing and I didn’t even know about the green playback button until my opponent pointed it out to me. I know ... I should read the manual.

I haven’t played a PBEM game for many years now. I found that most of my opponents were less than reliable or overly suspicious. A couple of them abandoned games and ended contact after only a few turns. One opponent accused me of cheating after an unlikely shot destroyed one of his tanks. Yet another implied that I must have cheated when my Iranians defeated his Americans. I only had one good regular opponent. We had several great games - but then he broke contact after he set up a large game that I did not have time to play. I have stuck to playing the AI ever since.
