Please accept my apologies if you felt I tried to laugh about you or your realism level.

You don´t need to justify yourself about why you play or not at a certain level of "realism". I play at 100% because GWX says that I play at 100%, no wonder if I use contact updates or not. The primary goal for me is to find a balance between challenge, playability and fun, no more, no less. For me it´s irrelevant if Mr. X or Mr. Y think that I´don´t play correctly for their own "realism" standards. Who cares about that? If one of these days I feel that my play becomes tedious with my time/distance table, for example, I´ll look for another system of targeting. Or If I become quite mad, I´ll play at x1 compression time, I´ll wake up at midnignt if the watch officer shouts "Schiff gesichtet!" to play at 4AM, and, of course, I´ll not take a shower and a shave for all the duration of the patrol, played, of course, at x1 time.

The only thing I´ll not do to increase my "realism" level when become killed is to commit suicide!:rotfl:

Best regards and believe me: I was only laughing your joke about "realism" .
Te pregunto que para excusarme, entendía gravemente. Tenía dos opciones y elegí el mal...

And be sure that I was NOT furious, only passioned.
Don´t worry. Let´s forget this misunderstanding.
By the way, I agree wiht you that "realism" is a quite subjective matter. You say that the first time you were "killed" you were three hours thinking about the horrible death of your crew. I understand.

For me there is realism too when I put time at 1, and request to my radio operator to put a record in the gramophone. I can spend hours listening music at home while I do other things; sometimes I take a walk to the bridge and join myself to the watch crew, or I go downstairs to "Zentrale" and I request the "Chief" for the fuel or battery levels. Few times, very few times, you can be, for example, washing your teeth when from the computer you hear: "Schiff gesichtet, Lage drei-drei-funf, grosse Entfernung!", and you run like hell to the computer to press "B" and take your binoculars to give the proper orders. That´s also my realism.

Regards y... ¡Buena caza!
