Thanks Andrew, majikforce is a high tier 1 right now, so no problem, right? Or are you saying majikforce played somebody who was under-rated…?

@jim010 You might want to study some games by the top players. Triple A is amazing that way as you can review an entire game move by move using the history function and the “next” button.
THANK YOU akreider - exactly. Easy to review anyone else’s games.

Now what would be the limits - they would all have to be defined. We’re not going there. I have a better idea. As you all could have all along, write me about your situation (I’m a high tier E trying to make the playoffs and this new guy wants to play me in league but I don’t want 4 points dropping my score, what can we do?) and I could make an exception for you. AD isn’t the only guy who gets exceptions. Then it wouldn’t even have to be limited to 1 game a year, a tier E or M could do several if he wants them to count toward 8 league games but not lower his score.
Now even with this exception, we’ll see how many tier E’s and M’s actually spend their time with newcomers.
Okey, if that is the way you want to handle it i support it 100% I also question that all M’s suddenly are going to start playing rockies… But we will see! Also it should end this discussion!
Guys like you or JDOW or Adam or AD piping up is pretty effective at ending the discussion too.
Bottom line: I’m not real keen on changing the system for little anecdotes when there are workarounds. We CAN be a little bit informal, like it IS possible to play a league game and if both players agree, PPG won’t be counted for the expert player - exceptions do need my approval
Not sure, but as I remember it was majikforce who discussed playing other players and how it hurt his record.
For me now that I know there is a friendly area to play n to help players get better I am content with the League as is. trulpen and I are doing a Tutor game and I expect to do at least 2-3 of those a year for those interested. In fact our first one is just beginning! CHECK IT OUT!!!
Yes, thanks for posting that again, Andrew, that you discovered the non-league area, that’s good, glad to have you in the league and A&A.org in general
@gamerman01 lol! Haha! I did beat you back in the day, didn’t I?
If a newcomer wants to experience what a tier M can dish out, I don’t mind being a guinea pig. I also don’t mind if it counts for league or not since I’ll make the playoffs regardless, but it’s a bit unfair to other players perhaps if losing to a tier M gives as many points as a tier 3 win.

Thanks! Glad to be here to play and have fun and give back to the AA Community too.
That many years ago, who can debate? Oh wait, we have records archived ;) I’ll go look in the dusty “basement”. You could always claim you beat me in a non-league game, though lol

I know I could, but that takes away the discovery for me. I want to find the solutions on my own. Which is ironic considering the India Crush and Sealion threads when the first esition came out. But still.
Great point Adam, but don’t worry, after a few more games their average will be close enough to accurate unless they can get a couple other tier M’s to play them so they can maintain that lofty 4.00 average ;)
Jim! We played ONE league game in 2012 when 1940 was brand new, and… you lost.
You very well could have beat me in some other game though, let me look for my old off-the-grid spreadsheets… <scrape, scrape>
No don’t look it up, lol! In case i lost!

LOL - Funny. Well Jim and I have only played one game and he did lose so I guess I have to start keeping records. Oh Wait! gamerman01 does that for us!!
THANK YOU!!!
You are very welcome. If they’re in the league, they’re forever, but out in the jungle… you’re on your own, baby
