Tense problem, simple or contiuous, past or perfect tense?
Could you please tell me how to properly say these sentences?
- Let me know when you are here/get here.
- I came tonight because I knew you would rather I came/ had come. (does this mean I came)
- When I ask you for a favor, it always feels like I annoy you/I'm annoying you and owe you something.
- He doesn't know if anyone is behind him if the opponent were/is to do that.
- Imagine what happens/ will happen once he starts playing better.
- Where were you seated/sitting?
- I was nice enough to give you my spot while you ate./while you were eating.
- He hit a shot as the clock winded down./was winding down.
- He picked up the pace as the game moves along./is moving along.
Thank you
