Have you ever had that send anyway moment?
after capping a villa off magwyn, insaneluver sent recap nobles of his own. i timed a recap to hit just after his and fell asleep with my hand on the mouse lol
woke up hours later and realized what i was suppose to have done, and pressed send anyway , needless to say , my recap train got facepalmed .

New Years Eve 2009,
<bag of magic dust=check,box of liquid gold=check,green vegetable matter=check>
I stupidly decided to play shenanigans with a rival tribe.
Was a photo in circulation that was causing alot of giggles and alot of anger from both tribes concerned..
"How dare he make our Duke a pig!!" was the general feeling from opposing tribe..

So i thought it would be funny,as some had not seen said picture,
to send the picture to every member of said tribe..
back in those days,if you started a circular mail...and pressed OK once,it would send 1 circular mail..
so i sat there off my nut,clicking OK for approx' ..idk?..3-4 minutes extremely rapidly..
NYDay, they all awoke to ??? 5-600 pages of same mail,and picture..
Now this is where the noobness "GOLD AWARD" is given..
I woke up to 780 villas BARBED BY TWSUPPORT! -
and a very impressed coey..

Attacked a player.

Got attacked back. Thought is was a possible ramless nuke. Decided to waste 2 minutes pulling all local D that I could get in within a 6 hour period (the rough distance of the attack).

Got a little over-zealous with the defending.

Turned out to be a fake :icon_neutral:

Did I mention he only had the one village? Why do I bother...

PHX member sends 2 trains and 1500 fakes at me. I tag all accurately, and forget about it as the trains were 2-3 days away.


PHX member hits me up on skype after the first train landed:


[spoil][01:57:04] Alastair - Ali: You missed my trains... So upset
[01:57:09] Alastair - Ali: and lazy noble :(
[01:57:31] ~Googly~: ?
[01:57:44] ~Googly~: missed your trains mate?
[01:57:53] Alastair - Ali: The attacker has won

[01:58:01] ~Googly~: oh crap
[01:58:03] ~Googly~: (facepalm)
[01:58:13] Alastair - Ali: :^)
[01:58:20] ~Googly~: i forgot
[01:58:21] ~Googly~: :D
[01:58:21] Alastair - Ali: Crappy noble
[01:58:49] Alastair - Ali: Dw, next time Ill get you lots of incoming
[01:58:54] Alastair - Ali: and sneak in more trains[/spoil]

...At this point I somehow thought he was in my tribe and trolling me about losing a village...

I go through reports, see the exact same train report he'd just posted and because I had convinced myself I "lost" the village, say this...


[spoil][01:59:16] ~Googly~: building a recap next :p

[01:59:38] ~Googly~: LOL
[01:59:41] ~Googly~: i nearyl lost 2
[01:59:42] ~Googly~: (rofl)
[02:11:31] ~Googly~: oh
[02:11:34] ~Googly~: that was just the 1
[02:11:42] ~Googly~: thought there was a second train
[02:11:46] ~Googly~: ~Googly~ goes to actually check incoming
[02:11:48] ~Googly~: (rofl)
[02:12:25] ~Googly~: i'll put some D in Stout 006
[02:12:26] ~Googly~: :p[/spoil]


I had so many red dot reports from sending fakes that I didn't notice that first train. And I'd be actually losing a village in 12 hours due to not remembering about the inbound trains had he not hit me up on Skype after the first one under-nobled.



:icon_redface: I think that's a facepalm for me for forgetting about 2 inbound trains from 2 continents away

And

:icon_redface: A facepalm for me for convincing myself I'd lost a village and then reacting "oh phew I nearly lost the 2nd" when looking at the report Ali'd shown me


And

:icon_redface: A facepalm for General Ali for telling me before the second train landed and so inadvertantly reminding me to defend it :lol:




Note to self: drink less
