  • TripleA

    I prefer to go undefeated with lucky dice bailing me out at the end of every game.

    hah, to each his own.  you are on the run of a lifetime.  the dice you got against atlanta axis and now us have got to put you in the top 0.01% or something.  :-P

  • TripleA

    We like to win our games defending. In order to do that we have to make it tempting for our opponents to attack.

    i like it.  we’ll see if it works again.

  • Liaison TripleA '11 '10

    I suffered the same fate at the hands of the Dairy Qyrn!

    Now we just need to see how the final turns out. :P

  • '12

    you are telling me that DQ got miraculously lucky in at least 3 of their games?  hilarious.

  • TripleA

    Everyone needs luck.

  • '12

    hahah ok cow.  well, i will say this, a guy who is playing the game with the expectation of getting greatly lucky and gets it is tougher to beat then the better strategist who is playing the odds.  in a low luck game you would have had your ass handed to you in this one but who would ever want to play low luck.

    the thing is, when you plan for good luck and you don’t get it, you fold like a little girl, like you did to rommel…  but that’s how you play the game and i respect that, wouldn’t want it any other way.  you just better hope that luck doesn’t run out before the last game you play…  :wink:

  • '12

    Strategy can always be trumped by truly miraculous dice… absolutely no way around it… it happens.  Thats why garg made it double elimination.  Your chances of getting that luck in 2 of 3 games against us are nil.  :-D

  • TripleA

    Would you like to play a low luck game? You would be surprised to see how much luck is involved in low luck.

    low luck games have different bids from full luck (dice) games, just fyi

    whichever side has the “most attacks to do” in the first round (normally the side that goes first, but not always), benefits far more from low luck than the other side

    this is why the bids for a low luck game of AA50th 1941 are like 15 for the allies right now

    on a side note, this thread should be locked

    no, i do not want to play low luck.  odds are your luck will come crashing down, and it will probably happen in your last 2 games.  that’s where you will be exposed.  the sad thing is you have no idea how much trouble you were in that game…  just no clue.  but whatever, we know and that’s all that matters to me.

    cheers

    regarding the locking of the thread, i’m not sure why that would be necessary.  when we needed it to be locked, there was not a moderator available anywhere that could do anything about it apparently.  which is why i have tried to start support for getting an actual acting moderator for the burgeoning G40 population.  there are like 200 games already in the league through less than half the year and we have no acting moderator.

    as to cow and my discussion at this point, no one is namecalling or being unruly in anyway, so i’m not sure how you or anyone else is being negatively impacted.

    as far as low luck is concerned, just not interested in ever playing it.  i want cow and guys like cow to be playing the game  presupposing good luck, it’s to the advantage of the strategic player much more often than not.

    cheers

    my offer of a league game still stands cow.  you need to stay sharp for the final ya know.

    :wink:

    IF you guys play a game, make sure to make it a “Best of X”, where X is at least 3 games, preferably like 5 or 7

    league can only be best of 3 (another outdated league rule that should be changed) but yeah, whaddya say cow?

    all the earlier trash talk aside, i do respect the game you play - it is highly effective when it works.

    we can each play one side with an agreed bid, then if we each win once, we can straight up bid for game 3.  another thing to consider, i play a very fast game and so do you.  we can knock these out lickety split - you up for it?

  • TripleA

    My number of global wins compared to losses, was nothing but pure luck. If I play more games than my luck eventually even out. WHY WOULD I DO THAT?

  • TripleA

    It is OKAY. Many use my strategies to great effect!

  • '12

    haha.  i understand why you don’t want to play.

    it’s like the fish that was sitting at a table with a bunch of sharks and went all in with 2% to win and sucked out.  that’s the best time for that newbie to get up from the table and leave.  problem is, you still gotta win one more game.  :wink:

    @Cow:

    most people have no idea how to play this game yet.  you are the guy putting up strategy guides, so yes, people are following them.  i wouldn’t conclude much more than that yet.  :-D
