If you arranged a Baden family reunion, then we could have two simultaneous FHs every night.
(Ghay Kakken Offten Yam? Is that some sorta Bolivian llama and sweet potato stew?) |
"K-SWISS" is far to busy in his job and has certainly no time to play a game (even if you readmit him). You would be amazed however if I told you more about his actual business.
My daughter is busy with her son since two years now.
So there will be no family reunion.
But perhaps I might meet your cat in a game if we need FH?
Booting me is no solution. |

Yes, but banning you would be. |

"Ricou" actually seeded 4th has this FH Percentage: 16.55%
Did you ever make a weekly 1st medal? I see 3rd as best result.
I have a weekly 1st and run to the Forum and tell that you are "mediocre"?
Come on! That is stupid and kills the game. Bio rots the brain obviously. |
Look, I don't have a big problem playing against you and luckily I haven't pissed off too many others here through my game-play (my posting may be another matter). However it IS clear that your gameplay annoys a significant number of LUXXERS so I thought I would try to point out WHY exactly people react poorly to you. What you choose to do (or not do) with that information is your own choice but please don't act surprised when players boot/asshat/etc you. I'm not saying such reaction is correct-I NEVER advise people to let their emotions get away from them; but you shouldn't be shocked that some players will continue to react negatively to your style of play. |

Mere annoyance? You're being much too kind, Cloobie. He's ruining games, plain and simple.
(Deliberate board flipping, and if you don't think he's getting off on our reactions, then you don't know Baden.) |

Perhaps you should change your game-description, Para:
"Respect the non-aggression pact until there is no risk at all."
And consider:
Clausewitz suspended any possibility of producing a simple, mechanistic, and predictive theory of warfare.
People avoid "Classic" meanwhile because you made it simple, mechanistic and predictive.

You're missing the point, Baden, as always. In traditional classic, needless aggression only weakens yourself and your target, while relatively strengthening four other opponents. Worse, you often ensure that the person who moves immediately after you will benefit more than anyone else. Your stupidity turns the game into a "starting order" lottery. I guarantee: 98% of the time you crash into Oz, you will not win, and more often than not, you'll finish no better than fourth. Again, look at your stats, Baden: Only 10.1% wins in 556 FH games this last year. Obviously, you need to adjust your strategy, unless, of course, winning isn't your primary concern.
(I'd wager that it's not.) |

Bullshit. People avoid classic nowadays for other reasons, and when they do gather and play, they all disappear the moment you arrive and guest in. Ultimately, traditional classic is a logical game, much like chess. If you wanna play horseshoes, Baden, then please, remain in your 50% room, or join the madhouse known as biodeux. I think you, and everyone else, will be much happier then. |

You played one 5,5,5 online if I am well informed and judge? |
