And anyway, its not like I was seriously drunk. I'd only had about 6 beers. That's like, officially considered sober over here.

A word of the wise (or not so wise) to all the other noobs like me out there: when you see a plane, DIVE. Trying to duke it out with them on the surface is not smart at all. Just crash and get the hell out of there.
Good idea, the only time I would employ the AA guns are if the sub is too damaged to dive or its too shallow.

Oh, I have a very long list of noob mistakes:
1) Driving into my own fat eel.
2) Killing myself with 2 of my own homing eels.
3) Attacking a convoy, thinking I was submerged.
4) Surfacing under a destroyer while it was dropping DCs.
5) Exploded
6) While using hot keys, a set the speed to back emer. while leaving port.
7) Rammed a sinking C3 cargo.
8) Sunk a ship,dove to 15m, sinking ship lands on top of me and brings me down with it.

One time not too long ago, I was having a beer and biscut while reloading the externals 'bout 4 mins left.
"Aircraft spotted"
I drop my biscut which lands on a clean plate (Good day),
I drop my beer which lands on my pants (Bad day),
I spot the plane all it is is a search plane,
but that thing made me drop my beer, so flak crew on deck.
"Fire at will"
They blow the thing out of the sky,now it's his turn.
He crashes into the side of the ship, blowing me out of the water.(Karma on the spot)

But that was a great beer, I guess it counts as a KIA at least for my morale.

Steve thats not even the whole list I think there was about 50 or so I might post the whole list just to show how bad I was, and still am, at this game.
