Post here your messups!

Well, we all do messups!
Let's post it here for the fun of it ?

Here is my latest messup:
-I saw a juicy fleet on my plunder page, I rubbed my hands together in greedy anticipation and set forth to capture the shiny ransom!
I clicked on the target, I selected my only fleet (Royal Fleet) and... BINGO! That wasn't my attack fleet (It was Royal Mail but in my hurrines...) :o but rather a single cutter trying to beat 5 ships of the line :cry:
Moral of the messup: Make sure the names of your attacking fleets do not start with the same adjective!

Oh man, I have a lot of these.
My most recent: I was anticipating getting hit by voodoo so I activated Countercurse on myself. Then I realized I had an Exposition Journey which I could use to raise my Ship of the Line from level 9 to level 10. Not thinking, I cast it onyx my SotL and got the message that my Countercurse countered my Expedition Journey! So I waisted 2 incredibly powerful cards, costing my 3.3million gold.

Moral: countercurse will counter yours and your guild's positive curses as well as attacks! (Unless this is a bug... I would prefer if Expedition journey wasn't countered- why would you ever want to counter that card?)

Not so much a mess up as bad luck, but I did recently spend hours getting max crew and cannons on all my trade fleets (deleting a lot of other trade fleets to streamline)... just for the day after to have hire max crew and cannon for all capability. >.<
