Do you guys find this offensive?
This article came up in a twitter post and i thought it was interesting. Read the article, and in particular read the quoted excerpt from the pulled application. What do you guys think of it? And then also read the comments if you want to laugh a little because there are some very silly ones.

awesome sauce
It's an anonymous, 3-day, WTA for 30 D - all you people who complain about people playing for points instead of playing for the win -- WTA bypasses that problem.

If you want to play a game with me and you are not an utter noob leave a msg here.
the game will have small buy in and will be wta, anon, 1day/turn.
Rancher (1652 D(S))
29 Nov 10 UTC
we've only played together the one time, I'd do it again
butterhead (90 D)
29 Nov 10 UTC
I dont recall playing with you before hellalt, maybe only once, so ill play...
podium (498 D)
30 Nov 10 UTC
You don't feel the love anymore.What a way to break up over the internet.
Jack_Klein (897 D)
30 Nov 10 UTC
Seriously. I don't put out like I did that one time for just anybody. QQ.
jquirk (100 D)
30 Nov 10 UTC
I don't know if we've played or not and I'm too lazy to go back and look - but I'll join your game if invited.
hellalt (70 D)
30 Nov 10 UTC
taking a look at my stats I have already played with:

1. podium 11 times !
2. jimgov & bonotow 10 times !
4. perry6006 & Draugnar & ava2790 & Jack Klein 7 times !
8. barn3tt & rdrivera2005 6 times

on the contrary I have never played:
thucydides
ebay
friendly sword
sicarius
Also, I have played TheGhostMaker only once.

I would like to play any player that sounds familiar to me through the forums but without having played me before.

rancher, we have played before once but you are in.
butterhead, jquirk you don't ring a bell to me from the forums. thx for the offer though!

hellalt (70 D)
30 Nov 10 UTC
I'm really curious to play with Friendly Sword (if he's still around) and Thucydides.
hellalt (70 D)
30 Nov 10 UTC
I forgot to mention figlesquidge too. You are invited if interested.
orathaic (1009 D(B))
30 Nov 10 UTC
we've never played, it seems, but i have no memory of not playing you... odd.
abgemacht (1076 D(G))
30 Nov 10 UTC
FS was briefly around, but I haven't heard from him recently.
butterhead (90 D)
30 Nov 10 UTC
I probably dont ring a bell because i havnt been here long enough, only like a month or so, and i am not into any of the big pot games yet, so therefore dont way in as much on forum posts. give it a month or so and im sure ill ring a bell. :) maybe next time than...
Rancher (1652 D(S))
30 Nov 10 UTC
@hellalt, just say when and I'm in
Draugnar (0 DX)
30 Nov 10 UTC
I know I'm not invited cause we've played so often in the past, but I wanted to say that playing with hellalt is fun. I used to play him to get him riled up, but he and I have both matured and he can show some talent on ocassion and always make for an enjoyable opponent or ally.
I have got to stop getting into so many games. >_<
hellalt (70 D)
30 Nov 10 UTC
orathaic in fact I have played with you 2-3 times.
President Eden I think I have played with you once too but I can't remember it for sure so you are in.
Butterhead you are in too
Let's fill in the spots with players with 0 or 1 game with me first and then fill the empty slots with anyone else.
So far:
1. rancher
2. president eden
3. butterhead

Draugnar thx for the comments :)
As always half of my games go good and half go down the toilet.
I still rant from time to time in those that go bad.
orathaic (1009 D(B))
30 Nov 10 UTC
yeah, hellat i thought so, but i can't find the games in my record... i don't know why, did we play over on olidip or some such?
hellalt (70 D)
30 Nov 10 UTC
no you are right
it seems we haven't played in any games together.
I just checked mine and your list and nothing came up.
so
1. hellalt
2. rancher
3. butterhead
4. orathaic
5. president eden
looking for two more.
Urel (1005 D)
30 Nov 10 UTC
If interested, I'd be though I can't remember playing you before...
:)
Rancher (1652 D(S))
30 Nov 10 UTC
@hellalt - this will be good .... I just finished my first game with Pres Eden and it was a crazy one, plus Butterhead and I have played a few times though not often on Olidip, but not here
qoou (434 D)

Hi. I think I may have once played a game with you, but that was like a year ago.
DJEcc24 (246 D)
30 Nov 10 UTC
glad to know you have gotten tired of my type
hellalt (70 D)
30 Nov 10 UTC
qoou sorry but some other people express their interest first and we are now seven.

ok so here is the final list along with current GR rank and rating followed by win/draw ratio and number of finished games to spice things up a bit.

1. orathaic 131th 220.6 35% 32
2. president eden 190th 190.6 48% 113
3. hellalt 260th 170.0 36% 128
4. rancher 325th 155.9 40% 65
5. jquirk 658th 117.5 27% 124
6. butterhead 786th 111.1 34% 21
7. urel 940th 104.3 44% 37

The game is going to be anon and WTA
You will all soon receive the link & password through a personal message.
I would like to know if you have any special preferences about turn phase duration and buy in. If you don't I ll have it 30 D buy in and 24hrs/turn.
This is going to be an interesting game.
Urel (1005 D)
30 Nov 10 UTC
Uh, I'm last. :(
I'm fine with 30 buy in and 24hrs/turn.
butterhead (90 D)
30 Nov 10 UTC
Im good with those settings aswell.
rdrivera2005 (3533 D(G))
30 Nov 10 UTC
Well, seems I don´t qualify to kick your sorry ass again hellalt :-)

To be honest, it was always funny to play with you, either as an ally or as an enemy, but the leagues are so much of a play with the same guys so I hope yo play you again only next year.

Good game to you guys.
Baskineli (100 D(B))
30 Nov 10 UTC
If any of you cancels, I'd like to join the game as well.
hellalt (70 D)
30 Nov 10 UTC
orathaic, president eden, rancher, jquirk are you also ok with 30 D buy in and 24hrs/turn phase duration length?
Rancher (1652 D(S))
30 Nov 10 UTC
all OK with me
Ack, sorry, I meant to say I wanted to play but I'm overextended. Sorry for the confusion. If qoou or Baskineli wish to have my spot, that's fine.
hellalt (70 D)
30 Nov 10 UTC
I have never played you Baskineli so if you want the spot is open for you.
Draugnar (0 DX)

Oh, I have to follow this one... Bask and hellalt in the same game. Should be interesting knowing how both play the game.

hellalt (70 D)

Baskineli (100 D(B))
30 Nov 10 UTC
I'll be happy. What's the link/password?
hellalt (70 D)

Draugnar (0 DX)
30 Nov 10 UTC
No implications but I know how both of you play and think it will be fun to see how it turns out and who was who when it is done. Just as the current CrazyMad will be fun to see in the end.
orathaic (1009 D(B))
30 Nov 10 UTC
i have to say my GR is much higher than usual because i won a single game recently... (soloing at least one league game is normal, right?) it had been on a downward spiral - as i hadn't won anything since dec of last year - and while i'm hoping to avoid another year long series of losses - i don't know if this game will break my current downward spin.

Good luck to all!
orathaic (1009 D(B))
30 Nov 10 UTC
oh also, is 25 hours pahses preferable to 24 hours phases?
hellalt (70 D)
01 Dec 10 UTC
maybe but it's a little too late to change it now.
only one person hasn't joined the game yet.
orathaic (1009 D(B))
01 Dec 10 UTC
for the sake of arguement, i jsut tested and can change it, will change it back if there is any objection.... actually, i can change it back anyway until there is agreement...
Rancher (1652 D(S))
01 Dec 10 UTC
joined now, sorry to be late to the table I was in depositions all day, which you hellalt should be able to relate to
hellalt (70 D)
01 Dec 10 UTC
what do you mean orathaic?
Can you change the phases to 25hrs/turn?
Are you a mod or something?
If you can change it to 25hrs/turn pls go ahead and do it.
I don't think anyone will have a problem with that and it's better to have 25hrs/turn that 24.
orathaic (1009 D(B))
01 Dec 10 UTC
i was a mod, resigned and still have mod powers... tend not to use them much...

ok, at your request i'll change the game.
Rancher (1652 D(S))

fine with me at 25 hrs

lets get rid of draws
there should be a game mode that is PPSC but no draws. i am sick of people going into games with the idea that there will be a 2-3 person draw from the start. the only way a draw in these game should be initiated is if there are no advancements from any side able an admin or whatever can assess the game and make sure it is actually draw, otherwise itd be cancelled

Everyone loves talking about what you were thinking and how surprised you were by a player's move or a stab, but no one outside of your game gives a shit. The only exception is games with good players like the Mad Marx games who's commentary would actually help people get better
