The reason I made the remark is he told you he went on 3 Patrols and you stated "it is not possible to sink 86 ships if you only refuel and replenish the topedo payload three times" and " you had to be playing with unlimited torpedoes" So I am showing that he did not have to be playing with unlimited torpedoes because 3 Patrols is different than 3 Refits and you simply misunderstood what he said.
"I submit that this is an impossibility unless manual targeting turned off and/or you have unlimited torpedoes." And I submit that it is not Impossible because you were assuming he only reloaded 3 times, and that is not what he said.
He told you how many ships he sank, that he used manual targeting and did not have unlimited torpedoes and there was no need for you to imply he was not telling the truth.
After you tell him you don't believe him and then tell him he can't learn manual targeting in a month (people can learn it in a day) you don't accept my explanation and basically tell me to butt out you will do what you want with your "If I wanted to insult him I would have insulted him"
So carry on. But don't try to hide behind " I was trying to figure out how many times he rearmed." You flat out told him what he was saying was impossible.
Maybe you should read Webster's signature line again.
