I'll lay off the love notes, sorry draug

You should be flattered that people want to play with you not to cry like a baby...dont take my toys away!!! ;)

dejan - important messages can get bumped off the bottom and never seen with the spam i get from several different players, none of whom i know and all of whom are inviting me to live games which i *don't* play.

if i know a person, i'm all good for an invite. but would you walk up to eminem's door and throw down a rap challenge? or walk up to rick james and ask him to jam? no! so why do it here?

too many, spyman and akilies, i'll play any time with you, my friend. well any time that it isn't a live game.

I was only joking, sorry :)

that's fine. i was just explaining. it is a nuisance when you start missing messages.

..Yeah I always feel bad when I get messages asking me to join live games. Because I don't respond to PM's like at all.

That and if I wanted to play a live game I'd already be considering signing up. As Draug says if I know you and have played several games with you you earn an exception.

I don't get very many invites :-(
Not that I play live games. I wish I had the time.

eminem & rick james

who are they?

"if i know a person, i'm all good for an invite. but would you walk up to eminem's door and throw down a rap challenge? or walk up to rick james and ask him to jam? no! so why do it here? "

I see that you have a pretty low self confidence here, huh? :P

"spyman and akilies, i'll play any time with you, my friend"
"if i know a person, i'm all good for an invite."

Draugnar is metagaming! Draugnar is metagaming! Playing with friends is metagaming! Draugnar is metagaming!

Lol Draug just pulling your leg. Which is not to say you've never done this to anyone else...

OP +1.

I hate advertisements in PM... One of the most needed features of the site is blocking PM's from someone. It's a shame Kestas needs to write anti-dumbass code though.

I don't mind them if the PM is well written and/or I know someone in the game. I hardly ever check these forums.

haha well i'm glad to see no one wants me to play in live games :) it must my glorious record, I never get defeated :)

@smiley face guy - it is a shame, but it is necessary

@ava - not metagaming, just a multi, but dont worry about that too much ;)

@ ava: you've got it all wrong. meta-gaming is when someone refuses to unpause ;)

i sometimes wish the "kill killer" game was drawn instead of cancelled, just so i could read the press. rage is therapy can't hold a candle to the going ons of that one.

@ drag: shouldn't the self-declared eminem of webdiplomacy have more than 20pts? i think you're closer to being the hank the angry drunken dwarf of webdip.

sorry, but you know i can't help myself when it comes to poking fun at you :)

I actually enjoy when I get PM's to join games in bizarrely broken English, so go ahead and tell them "No, but maybe SacredDigits will join."

I won't, but at least I'll be amused.

All I got out of this thread is that Draug thinks he's the Rick James of diplomacy.

He's a very kinky England.
The kind you don't bring home to mother.

if drag is the rick james of webdip, does that make maple the charlie murphy?

@trip - Just saw all this. :-) I have so few points because I lose them in big games to top notch players. I don't points farm. Points farming is metagaming and should be a bannable offense.
