08 Jul 19 UTC Spring, 1905: Looking back through my game logs I noticed something. I have challenged you on the ladder at least twice, maybe thrice, and you always pick maps that are not the most balanced. EvT and GvI both have slight tilts one way or the other.

I wanted to ask if you do that on purpose, and if so, why?
08 Jul 19 UTC Spring, 1905: Certainly fair question! To be honest, EvT was mainly because I played it a handful of times and enjoyed how close the unbalance was. With a little risk taking, Turkey can force a draw or eek out a win. Often times when I'm challenged, it gives me a high probability of making it through the first round of challenging with at least a tie if I can win as England. For a while I mainly picked EvT and practiced to try and get better on it for that scenario. Now I've dropped off a bit and am not quite as good on it as I was.

As for GvI, I played it in a match recently and it was reasonably chaotic so I thought what the hell since we have played each other several times ;)

Also, I'm awful at FvA :D
09 Jul 19 UTC Spring, 1905: Interesting. I had thought that you did it in order to make it easier to force ties the first round of the challenge. I do also enjoy EvT. And these GvI have been fun.

Hmmm, I wonder what map I'll pick for our rematch?
09 Jul 19 UTC Spring, 1905: ;)
12 Jul 19 UTC GG! Looks like you'll win the other one though.
