the walking math book doesn't lie

Ain't that the truth, it gets around abit.


I've just signed up on turbo, looks like it's gonna be a ruff ride  :evil:

even at 60% (which i seriously don't think he killed off that much) it was a complete waste of 300 turns, since i was back to my own strength in one run, and he was at 1k land (same run!)

even without the retaliation, he would have made more NW with the land he took. Or would have made enough loyalty to gain enough NW at the very least.

that's not the point and you know it. I don't play turbo to win. I play turbo to learn. I learn by smashing people and then dealing with the retaliation. It also afforded me an opportunity to kill Sevah, which I have been trying to do all round because of his arrogance:

Unfortuneately, kill runs are very weakening when you are trying to defend your city against a billion dollars worth of troops :roll:

I've taught over 100 people to be contenders for top spot over all the servers i've dominated
redan was the worst student and that's my whole point.

Dash's strat is predictable and easily beaten if you know the math behind it

well i took him and his buddy from billions of networth to not even a top ten spot.
-------------------------

i destroyed him last round. I took him from 650mil net to 300 in one run before the reset

that's what snare said to me before he messed around.
i taught redan a better strat and he's treating you all like [dogs].<-- this is the kind of stuff you report, shadow. /PA

we will see how that goes when you clan
----------------------
i think you underestimate the players here

--------------------------
i'm not arrogant, i'm honest.
You don't stand a chance, i've taken on this whole server and stomped in the past
------------------------------
Tue, 06 Nov 2007 18:29:54 -0700From Shadow (#6) (?)

you are very arrogant for someone without a known name in this game
---------------------------

Tue, 06 Nov 2007 18:29:03 -0700From Inactive (#37) (?)

you mean you look forward to being slaughtered.
It's not a challenge against me,
i'm like an aircraft carrier going to war with a mini cooper
--------------------------------
Tue, 06 Nov 2007 18:28:00 -0700From Shadow (#6) (?)

Well I look forward to a challenge

let me know when you are up for it
---------------------------------
Tue, 06 Nov 2007 18:27:22 -0700From Inactive (#37) (?)

i've never played seriously here due to the lack of competition.
perhaps you would know me but i can't remember my names.
---------------------------------
Tue, 06 Nov 2007 18:26:16 -0700From Inactive (#37) (?)

within 3 minutes of me clanning you die.
i'll clan when i wish
----------------------------------
Tue, 06 Nov 2007 18:26:15 -0700From Shadow (#6) (?)

will do

what was your name as an oldbie? I played in the first few eras so I might recognize you
-------------------------------
Tue, 06 Nov 2007 18:25:36 -0700From Inactive (#37) (?)

i don't use the forums
snare and alazar aren't as good as me, ask snare
--------------------------------
Tue, 06 Nov 2007 18:24:16 -0700From Shadow (#6) (?)

heh, well I have a feeling I'm going to be going up against snare and alazar this round, but if that doesn't happen soon I'll gladly take you on. Theatening to kill someone while unclanned is just funny though...

Who are you on forums?
----------------------------------
Tue, 06 Nov 2007 18:21:55 -0700From Inactive (#37) (?)

i'm not active enough to clan, i've ran twice from protection, first run i was onlined.
yeah i'm an oldie.
last time i played here i taught Redan Dash a better strat, if he's an easy beat for you i might consider letting you challenge me.

interesting convo. I'd be interested in knowing what his name has ever been on any server... seems to me I'd recognize anyone that big, even if they're from a different promi (i frequent them all)

what do you mean?

Here's another interesting little except i forgot about: (i bolded some of the funnier bits)

sevah.. i vaguely remember that from somewhere

the agme right now has more skilled players then there ever were before, why not try to hold top this round?
----------------------------------------------------------------

Tue, 06 Nov 2007 21:26:58 -0700From: Inactive (#37)
sorry the name was Malicious, i deleted MASSACRE
sorry but i refuse to flood the top spot history with the name Sevah
--------------------------------------------------------

Tue, 06 Nov 2007 21:23:55 -0700From: Shadow (#6)
not ringing any bells

why not finish this set? I've been trying to make this round interesting for a while and so far nobody is responding. I suppose snare will be out for my blood as sson as he can leave the clan, but that's about it
-----------------------------------------------------
Tue, 06 Nov 2007 21:22:22 -0700From: Inactive (#37)
i haven't used a computer in the last 2 months, i use different names yes
you may remember me as MASSACRE
i think that's the only set i've finished here
------------------------------------------------

Tue, 06 Nov 2007 21:21:22 -0700From: Shadow (#6)
well unless you have been under a different name every set I havent seen you anywhere near the top in the last 4 sets

-------------------------------
Tue, 06 Nov 2007 20:57:53 -0700From: Inactive (#37)
yeah i'm an honorable person, i don't online people except for people are notoriously know for onlining, i don't bash the n00bs up, i delete before the end of everyset so no one feels like they can't beat me and quit out of frustration, I'm one of the more curtious players around.

Note the censored word.   

And you should know Sevah sticker.  He's been around a few times.  Odd chap.  Big head.

yes but i didn't think there was any kind of reporting system for that. i though the game just blocked profanity.

he went around it with the "!"

anyways

thats sevah? Ahhh that explains it. Always could talk the talk, hehehe

Shadow

I guess I have to thank you for trying to kill me :evil:

If he hadn't been overconfident enough to lock himself in a clan I would never have got him. Pippin stole my kill while i was healing though, and then appologized about 6 times in the same sentence several seconds later.

No, there's where you went wrong, see. I'm awesome. He is something, but it sure isn't the same thing as me ^_^

White Fang

I must admit to being rather amused--if nothing else, Sevah only gave me a couple of ideas to further hone my strat; it was quite a far cry from teaching me a new one altogether, nor was I his 'student.' As for treating anyone like a..."dog," I'm afraid that I'm altogether clueless as to what he is referencing.




Shadow

Yes. I must say the fight wasn;t anything like an aircraft carrier vs a minicooper either. He clanned and started attacking AFTER i was at 1000 land, failed and then died. I guess having someone like Pippin having that kill count is like an extra insult.

Sevah is such a tool. He's gotten his butt kicked on every server I've ever seen him on, yet he still acts like he's the greatest player ever. He's won what... one round here when no one was playing? Yeah... he sure is "curtious", letting us walk all over him like that.
