Going for an emergency visit to the bathroom and forgetting to pause the game while under attack.

And when I get back

that's another career blown away

Then again I am not going to do you know what.

Well, once I hit one of my own merchants leaving port. Repaired the damaged and sailed on like it was nothing. I had to crash dive and at about 50m my boat imploded. I guess damage was more extensive. I should have just backed into my berth and repaired in the first place

whilst playing with the keyboard i fired a torpedo. in dock.
sank a type 34.....

Oh the shame....

the funny thing was i hit the key then paused catching my breath. (cause it isn't instantanious) and for a fleeting moment i figured i may have just hit the hash key by accident. until the horrid Hiss and report "torpedo eins Los!"
by sheer bad luck two type 34's were ambling accross my path and it very nearly missed the first (but would have hit the second if it did) struck her in the rear and blew her clean out the water.
Boy was i popular.
i now use a key changer so you have to press Shift-Enter to fire a torpedo....
