That wasn't an insult...

i was talking about the other guy, look all i did was make a light hearted post, i wasn't trying to make a big deal out of it honestly but people started on me first. I'm a moderated person and wasn't the first to start arguing. I'm happy to leave this alone, and happy to prove the title of this thread to anybody.

You made a 'light hearted' post which you kept bumping to the top of the forum. Bumping your own post just to show off is extremely pathetic and is likely to annoy everyone, which is what you have achieved. You are a dumbass.

Then as soon as rlumley commented - telling you to stop bumping your own post - you began insulting him. You are the bad guy here. Grow up.

Sorry cause I am the only one who bumps! Anyway can't people just be happy for each other If people like you jamie didn't keep bathing in this would've been over ages ago

@Griby98: "Sorry cause I am the only one who bumps!"

You are not the only one who bumps. Bumping your own thread six times in the space of 10 minutes is, however, the behaviour of a prick.

No it's the behavior of somebody overcome with joy, I think you might be losing ur sense of fun on this site and u have forgotten the euphoria of those first few wins haven't u

You realize how ridiculous it is to create a thread to celebrate avicytory with Russia in game where Turkey and Germany went CD and Italy NMRed at least once...?

It is probably fun to be a troll... but it should be enough by now...
Get yourself in another game and have some fun playing... stop being such a kid annoying people.

live gunboat.
wanna try it?

I am having fin playing but also having fun with people getting lairy randomly I had fun in the game and that's all that matters @ troodonte I can't stand gunboat the name is diplomacy! Hence you should talk to each other

That is curious from someone claiming to be a great player because of winning a game like that :D
Did you enjoy the talk with Turkey and Germany?

Yeah I did lol but I did completely destroy Austria by convincing him I was helping him. Anyway can we just stop this now, it was a good thread and a laugh but I am seriously bored of having to constantly put people down it's not helping me make friends ;)

Griby, I hate you cause you remind me of myself.
You cannot make friends. You are a troll and trolls' job is to provoke people.
I like your attitude. Wanna become my student?
I already have another student, noob179.

Oh, so you used diplomacy with Turkey & Germany in your gunboat game?

fig +1!

And hellalt, if he bcomesyou studnet, does that make me a grandmaster? You learned from me after all. <grin>

Just kidding hellalt. We may but heads, but I like you and denis both.

Oh, and Trisk is my new hero!

God that was atrocious typing. Sorry gang!

@Hellalt - you said "I already have another student, noob179. "

Oh...... nothing could be further from the truth. I beat you in last month's ghost rating and I *might* even beat you this month too. Nah nah!!!

And so the student becomes the master. Are you gonna let Noob179 get away with his insolence, hellalt?

WHEN I TYPE IN ALL CAPS, I AM EVEN MORE INSOLENT!

Bwah-hah-hah!

Of course not. I'm going to teach him another lesson some day. That is when he grows some Christmas balls to accept my constant challenges.

You know I'd accept if I had the available points, right? I love it when you get your clock cleaned then make the game fun by insulting everyone. JK!

@Draugnar:

here's hellalt's stats:
* Defeated: 27 ( 37% )
* Won: 10 ( 14% )
* Drawn: 13 ( 18% )
* Survived: 20 ( 27% )
* Resigned: 4 ( 5% )
* Total (finished): 73
* Playing: 3

Here's mine:
* Won: 9 ( 32% )
* Drawn: 12 ( 43% )
* Survived: 6 ( 21% )
* Resigned: 1 ( 4% )
* Total (finished): 28

I let you draw your own conclusions about who's the teacher and who's the student. ;-)

and here is the game where I tactically outsmarted you

boohoo just a survival for mighty noob179 and a win for hellalt
I was probably just lucky, ha? ;)

btw my win/draw percentage in WTA games is 70%.
PPSC is for noobs.

There's this thing in statistics about having a proper sample size. Your 28 games is a much smaller sample than his 73, just as Griby's 10 is too small a sample for comparing against my 40. the more accurate representation woul dbe to compare his last 28 to your full 28.

Also, you need to compare and weight those statistics based on the level of his opponents. Honestly, just compare your GhostRatings and you'll get the best picture of who is truly better.

But I was talking about the lessons in being a swarmy smartass, which you both are still amateurs compared to *me*.

quoting Griby:
oooooooooooooooooh what an insult!

@Draugnar:

"Honestly, just compare your GhostRatings and you'll get the best picture of who is truly better."

GhostRating for November:

Hellalt #533
Me #465

As to your sample size point.... well taken but wouldn't it be even MORE accurate to use his first 28 games against my first 28??

No, noob179 it wouldn't. Cause in your first 28 games you had the chance to play against great masterminds of the game like me. That's why and how you evolved. I never had that chance in my first games here.

And hellalt's first 28 games show how good he was ages ago, and arguably how naturally talented he is at the game; they show very little, in my opinion, about how good he is now.
I'd say last 20 games played is a good sample... with added importance to the more recent ones.
But if I follow this road I'll end up with the GhostRatings so yes, just use them.

@hellalt, those are very impressive WTA results
