Thx! Enjoyed the game, well played. Dice were unkind to you, especially the AA hits.
2015 League General Discussion Thread

After Master level, we’re sure to get Master BlackBelt Dan 1,2,3…all the way to Grandmaster tier. :lol:
-
The league gets better every year….
-
Whether or not this is a collective feeling of us scum of the Earth, but we’d like to experience the raping from an Expert or Grandmaster B or Grandpa D or whatever rank you 1% come up with next. There are those out there willing to take us peons on, and I applaud them.
In no way should they be penalized for it. I’m not asking for a 40 bid (although after just having London Nuked, it’s not a bad idea….), but as I mentioned in this thread about a year or two ago, we should be given a chance to get our S&#T packed.Proposal
A win by a level 1 or higher (ie. Expert, Master, Grandmaster B), can’t affect your PPG, but can be added to your win total. I don’t know if you want to call it the charity column. However, in the unlikely event you fcuk up and you lose, then you are TOTALLY held accountable to losing
to someone on welfare. I don’t want charity points for losing. I think, for anyone to get a point for losing (and this is my personal belief on ANY game), you should only get the points after say, Round 10. Why should anyone get a point for losing in RD 3 or 4 because of a catostrophic collapse of defense. That’s not skill. Hell, I lose like that half the time! So if you are going to get points for losing, make it after RD 10…hell, if you feel froggy enough, if someone can take it to say RD 25, fcuk it, give them 1 pt less than the win…how many games do you see go that far? Probably not many, but maybe some people would be inclined to see if they could last that long?#Tier4LivesMatter

I hear ya Mallery
Play Boardgames section…
Playing top players is a privilege, not a right. And even if their PPG wouldn’t actually go down, it’s still a lot of time and energy to devote to a game that will not raise it… And it shouldn’t raise it. I know people talk ELO and all that, but I have some experience with that too. I don’t think your rating should raise at all from beating someone a lot worse than you. It proves nothing.
Sorry, not going to go through a bunch of gymnastics to remove the built-in penalty for playing someone much, much weaker

Congratulations on logging several wins so far this year, and reaching the next tier! I think you’re there to stay!
Cool thing about the tiers…… sense of accomplishment when you reach a higher level, right?

I guess we know why you are adding tiers… :wink:
-
just too much space above 4.50
I’m getting plenty of sense of accomplishment with 5 and hopefully soon 6 playoff victories in 2 years :wink:
-
Lets see if we can keep it at 5 :-P

It’s a hot game!
If you weren’t aware, the championship game is being played daily right now, is in round 11, and is living up to the hype! (Of which there was none) -
Triple A still has limited instances of the naval retreat bug. I posted a bug ticket on the appropriate website.
I attacked a lone sub with destroyer/fighter and after round 1 it immediately rolled round 2 dice without prompting for retreat option. Now normally in this kind of battle you would never want to retreat anyway, but I wonder what other instances (probably involving subs only) this will happen.
You’ve been warned

Hmm 91.1% Axis win ratio in tier E…
For what it’s worth Gamer I think you are underestimating Axis-dominion or overestimating tier E. But I do agree that subjectiveness needs to be minimized in a ranking system. I don’t see a perfect solution to future PAAs though.
-
And uh why is there one more Allied win than Axis loss in the grand total?
-
I always catch those within a couple of days.
Did you not look at the data for opponents by tiers for Axis-dominion? To me it’s obvious he’s upper tier 1. Anyway, it’s purely numbers. Underestimating Axis-dominion? Maybe. And maybe you’re underestimating me. I am bearing down on a repeat title that requires 3 playoff wins each year against the top players to achieve, and I was never really in trouble in any of those 6 games. No disrespect to any of my opponents.

Thanks for pointing it out - it was from when I was undoing JWW’s result against Pherman - I didn’t change a 3 to a 2. Like I said, I would have caught it soon enough, but thanks

And I think you’re underestimating tier E. Maybe you just don’t think highly enough about your own skills

You don’t need to, but thanks. That’s what I’m here for :-D

Yeah I did look, but after the recent changes even I could be considered as ‘‘preying’’ on tier 2s since I have 15 games tier 2 and under.
Maybe you only won the playoffs because I wasn’t in them :wink:. Just joking, it’s of course possible that I’m underestimating you and/or tier E.

No, this is good, because this is what some people complain about - that you can’t get a game with a tier E. You played 15 yourself. I’m preying on 2 right now - nothing wrong with that - just don’t expect a sky high PPG, you know?

:-) Thank you, I really appreciate that. Maybe we will face off in the playoffs. I might be in 2 playoffs at the same time :oops: because I had to let the Zhukov game go for about a month when I was in busy season. He even bumped me :lol:

ghost, just a warning!
if you lose to gamer, you will fall down to tier 1, and guess what gamer would say. yep, you guess it:
there has been a correction, and you never deserved to be a tier E to begin with. you are now where you always really belonged, which is a high tier 1.
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
and that would also mean that gamer is playing in the championship against a tier 1……how cool is that?

of course, i consider it absurd that ghost would be anything but an E. but this is just another horrendous consequence of PAA :lol:
