To save any confusion Elliot is the name I use in Earth.
I come online to find these RIPS 27 mins out, now being a peaceable chap who spends his time mining, raiding inactives and doing Expos, my first reaction is to send Mr Shadow the following message " Oooh, that's gonna sting old chap" in the hope that he recalls.
Time ticks by - no recall and no response so what's a chap to do? My fleets lands and I jump stuff around. I am still expecting perhaps a safety probe to check me out but nothing.
After the hit I send another message " Terribly sorry about that old chap, I did try and warn you I was online" Now Mr Shadow responds indicating that retribution is heading my way due to his error, from experience most of us know that means moon popping on a grand scale.
What will be will be, but in my book such play is just not cricket but sadly we no longer live in a world where a gentleman takes it on the chin and doffs his cap when someone hits his googly for a six.
I am now in a pre-planned vmode period for the duration of the World Cup so my return from that may be short lived
c'est la vie
