I thought it odd that I could be so fortunate with dumb luck the one time, and so entirely confounded on the next. And I DID put two torps into the exact same spot on the second cruiser that so effectively destroyed the first.

Sometime you just get lucky, but it is usually better to spread the shots along the length of the ship. If all you shots are going into the same area, maybe even the same hole you are not adding any more water to the boat. You are basically flooding a compartment that is already flooded, so in effect you are not doing any more damage. Or at least obviously not enough to sink it.
At time there are exceptions like hitting a magazine and blowing the ship in half, but that doesn't happen that much.
And like WhiskeyBravo commented what MODs you are running can make a difference.
Of BTW thanks a lot, now I have to buy a dictionary to read the forums.
And I am very sorry your chotomy died.
I think some kind of medal is in order here. Anyone who can use the word Dichotomy in a Subsim forum deserves some kind of special recongnition. (of course what you will get is some harrassment, all in good fun!!)
