Well if that is how it goes, then so be it. I don't agree, however, with how this is formulated.

In essence, in our game, dee was disabled because her engine was shot through whereas, you shot down Autheman the turn before the game ended, who was simply out of gas. Prior to your shooting down the fuelless Autheman, we had thoroughly dominated the game.

I do not agree that a plane retired with honor should be considered on the map. If a player wants credit for "being on the map", then keep the plane on the map as a glider, and lets see how long it remains on the map.

Again, there is no anger in this at all - it is just my opinion regarding the way things are/were scored.
