That seems fair to me. Moreover, my record of games played is on display for all to see in the Ladder. If POS disagrees, I will delete the game from my record as a win.
My ribbing of POS was completely in jest and I believe he took it that way. Given the response to the ribbing from other players non-solicited I guess I will not do that again in public forum. POS is afterall ultimately very ribbable as you all know.
Herroberst,
Hehe...sorry if I offended you. I thought it was clear that the true target of my comments was POS, not you - the very fact that I was taking you to task for bragging about your win in a scenario you played before in a thread where POS was bragging about his win-loss record in a scenario he had played 22 times was, I thought, ironically funny.
Turns out irony is a tricky concept to convey through typing alone, without being able to convey tone of voice. I thought the winky smiley would do it, but apparently it didn't.
No honest contempt of you was meant in any way at all - I don't think you were doing anything debatable at all. Sorry if it came off the wrong way...
Please try to understand - I've got to keep my pokes at POS deniable now, lest I bring down the wrath of RD on myself, so they're a little more subtle. Just don't tell RD that's what I'm doing, so I can publicly maintain that I have stopped POS-baiting. It'll be our little secret...
