I agree, some maps are just not meant to hide in the absolute hardest hide. it's risk/reward when you use those hides. yes you may be safe from an opponent's hard crate, but you're risking harder crates for yourself every single time you hide there. so that's on artic. he also was roping less and less efficient as he got more and more frustrated. like dub said, it's far from a flawless game, you can't blame crates alone.

dub, I'll support what I believe in personally and I generally speak up about it. you should too, I haven't seen you make a fd thread yet. try to convince people.  personally, the only reason I can think of for increasing fd is to punish mistakes more harshly.  so yeah, I guess if that's what people want, why not?  I'm not personally all that against trying higher fd, but I think everyone, like me, just needs to feel convinced.

we've gone on too long just accepting things the way they are, so these discussions are always good in my eyes. I think it's healthy to improve schemes. major sports try to improve every year, so what's stopping us?  perhaps getting everyone to agree is the hardest part.

franz once, twice and three times made me example of a person who were lucky in ropers on XTC, that I had beaten players considered more skillful then me as a result of the crates. I wanted to use franz as punchingbag back then, because I don't really buy this luck talk for this scheme.

crazy, what?  I think your memories are starting to get really exaggerated, because I've never posted replays saying one person was lucky to win.  PM me if you like, we can clear it up once and for all ^^

as for 'lucky roper', I've never denied that there is at least some luck in roper, due to random crate drops.  but this will always be the case until someone invents a crateless roper, probably something similar to wxw. My main argument has always been that player mistakes overwhelmingly 99% decide games more than random crates. we're all human, so mistakes are not surprising.

I've already openly suggested some nice roper ideas, my main one being that 1v1's should have 2 worms per team to add to the strategy.  with two worm piles, like in clanners, it adds strategy and likely also would affect how people would approach random crates especially if another worm pile is nearby.

people should not be guilted into alternating shots, use best shots available. if it's repeat, then it's repeat.

well then I don't know why my setup is considered so lucky, I have WA installed in my x86 program files and I haven't lost a single replay or any problem with minimizing.

but if people have success installing out of all program files folder completely, like in C:/  then I'll start recommending that from now on instead :) gj adiox in fixing this finally :p
#716
you said you'd fix this problem today re-installing to different folder. if we see any more free wins from you, they really should be deleted, even if someone helps upload like Throsti seems to be doing.

you're only as good as your word, now prove to us :)

•Replay file #1 is Large. Please contact site admin if your replay file has exceed 2 MB. ... I can't even attach my replay here because: An Error Has Occurred! Your file is too large. The maximum attachment size allowed is 2048 KB.

Edit: Can an admin or mod pls report my BigRR?: http://www.file-upload.net/download-4319706/2012-05-01-19.12.54--Online---DENnis-FD--harpy.WAgame.html

you can try to PM MonkeyIsland if he does not see this thread within 24 hours, or try reporting as free win (is this possible for po?) and post replay in comments
