Yea Almog, I also do this, just this way. Easier for me. I also take notes, like with Girders for example, I just draw a line every time it's used, then when my opponent is out of Girders, I black out the Girder on the picture of the inventory with the sharpy. This way, when I look down, I instantly see my opponent's inventory, except from the super weapon of course.

Well look Sbaffo, I would be willing to bet that I didn't do a lame move just out from the clear sky, I think I must have either had a bad day and I was just crazyass mad at everything, or you might have done something kinda lame - or something I considered that - and that was my way of responding to that. Either way I apologize and I'm sad that this is how I remained in your memory.

The thing is, when I started out back in 2006(ish, something like that), I started out with BnG and things were very different, I mean, you just didn't do that stuff. I think 4 sec grenades were even against the rules in some leagues, either XTC or one of those, but I'm not certain about that.

It was just a generally accepted, unwritten rule that you didn't do stuff like that, even in leagues. And unfortunately, the new generation of players wasn't brought up with BnG, rather Hysteria mostly, hence these moral rules got skipped. And it wasn't a problem, until the older and newer players got merged into a new league, which happened to feature BnG as a selectable scheme and that's when all the arguments started.

I don't blame younger people for not understanding, I blame ourselves for not doing our responsibility to teach them. But anyway, I would just rather avoid playing the scheme, because that just seems easier then writing these longass posts in a discussion forum. :)

Is this dedication or just plain batshit crazyness?

Does the price go for the winner of the Playoffs, the first in the standings, or is it somehow divided?

Meet Metal! He was born in 2002, which makes him old now, but still the same little f@#!er he always were. :)

Hey guys, how do you enjoy the championship so far? How does everyone feel they are doing?

I for one already overdid my own expectation regarding my performance. :D Considering I did absolutely nothing worms-wise in the past year...

Hey, a little clarification: we did manage to arrange our game for tonight, Crash did nothing wrong, I just forgot to send CC to you guys.

But, actually, it's my turn to blow off tonight, I have to go out on a formal dinner. We will arrange for Sunday, that should work out okay, he is available tomorrow and so am I.

Me and Crash were talking during the week and were trying to arrange our games for yesterday evening, he did not respond in time, neither did he show up. I also sent him a message asking if today is acceptable, still no answer.

Tomorrow night I'm playing at a gig, Saturday morning - something he suggested - is out for sure, because I'm teaching. What should we do?

Please don't answer here, I'm not reading this topic often, send me a personal message on the site, I get notification about those instantly in email!

To the administrators:

Why do you guys think it is that some people are better at predicting games and some are less good? Do you think this has to do with some kind of a sense, imagination or what?

So far in the prediction games I did pretty well, 1.5 points per games in 2012 (1,44 for the winner Dulek) and 1,30 points per game in 2013 (again 1,44 for the winner Dulek) and the only reason I didn't have a realistic shot at the end was that I missed out on placing the bets.

Why do you think it is that these statistics can be so consistent - especially in Dulek's case, I mean that ratio is just plain amazing. I usually score better without using any strategy at all and just predict what I feel, but analyzing data can lead to good scores as well.
