it's been out of control for ages now

don't you see the better members of this community have been slowly dragging away? you think that's me? #worms is still fileld up with the best guys, none of them post here

nah, it's the free reign of the fools you got going on here with the usual bright minds ruining all threads with noise and polish users not named barman making posts no one wants to read.

it's a terrible state of affairs when two grown up men in their thirties go around crying in every corner doing a witch hunt because bad old ropa came back to call them out for their bullshit. Hahaha.

that's it, in a nutshell.

There is nothing wrong with the physics of newer Worms games, skunk3 is right, it's a game, how can they be wrong, are they breaking any laws? No, so shut the f**k up and stop saying they are wrong.

Use the proper term "I don't like it" not "It is wrong because I don't like it".

I never once used the word "wrong". You're just facerolling your head against the keyboard praying something resembling a post comes up just so you can fatten the topic with noise.

I called WA physics superior because they have more depth, simple as. It has different levels of friction, acceleration, force and an incredible amount of different outcomes for any given shot. Worm games after WWP don't have any of that, worms will stick to the ground regardless of angle, power, or friction, likewise weapons.

We can agree to disagree, I'm definetely not going to waste any more efforts trying to convince the two naivest people in the whole forum about something that everyone with half a brain cell and game time already knows.

oldsock would easily outplay me, I'm confident I'd beat skunk if I can warm for a few minutes

@nino maybe christmas, but i will go down sooouth

Do you live in Malaga, Marbella, or Ronda?

Nope. East coast. Been there a few times though, Ronda has a nice cinema festival

dude we were in one clan together once when long done with the game lol

i thought you were joking at first, even people that would do anything but defend me felt the need to step up to such nonsense. but you still going with it as if expecting it to magically become true by sheer repetition

i've been in eif, tea, hos and basically every top clan ever since, current ones inclusive,  i've won contests, awards, and too many finals to remember, i've gone 50-0 and even at one point in WL clan finals I could choose which clan I wanted to play with because I was in both. there's my cock, now put yours next to it so we can all laugh. sigh

avoiding isn't or shouldn't be about skill. It's about third parties having influence in who gets to playoffs.

It can be used in many ways not necessarily to avoid loses, but to avoid people gaining points in favor of friends / clanmates.

it shouldn't be up to people outside of PO to have influence in who gets in the PO. It should be up to those in the top 8 or 16 or whatever. Or as close as possible to achieving that.

we eliminate the influence by the first come first served rule. Lukz shouldn't get to choose who loses or wins between Baffo and Dibz (let's say two potential PO players) but he's going to influence by making either win or lose points. To remove his influence we use the "play whoever asks" and that's why it's always been either bad mannered or illegal, depending on league, to do what Lukz does here.

It's easy to ignore a player mechanically in WA. If a player is so much of a hassle that someone refuses to play him in a game due to the way he behaves then surely he should be also banned from the website and posting in the forum?

In a world where things make sense.

I agree with what you said. I am not so sure about this though " If a player is so much of a hassle that someone refuses to play him in a game due to the way he behaves then surely he should be also banned from the website and posting in the forum?" Further explanation?

well I mean, how hard is it to ctrl+F someone who annoys you in chat? that should be the main course of action not just expect everyone to act to your liking.

If someone is so much of a weirdo that instantly starts criticizing your mother or your religion from the moment you accept to TUS him, in the various lobbies before giving you the chance to even ignore him. Or if someone makes a hassle out of picks that makes getting a game going with him a real issue then the issue should be whether or not he should be allowed to be playing league games to begin with, because giving people a free pass to avoid these kind of characters (if they exist at all) will still be somewhat adulterating the league.

you are forbidden to start a league game with someone else.

and that's the next best thing to having a league format where everyone plays everyone once or twice.

many rules of this league lose all coherency if we don't assume you're supposed to play whoever is immediately available and not nitpick - it defeats the purpose of the ladder.

this is a no argument anyway, Lukz himself manifested that he was avoiding Baffo so that's that. Whether he chose to play a player of similar or higher skill level instead doesn't change the fact that Baffo is losing potential points due to Lukz nitpicking who he plays. I wouldn't have personally done anything with just the first logs, because many things can happen and you can't force people to do anything, but Lukz admitted he didn't want to play a particular player, so - no argument.

if only we had HD back then

so plz dont mess with the roper as i play it 15 years without any changes

Guess you don't remember when they removed the 1x Dynamite that came with the scheme then. The one weapon that gave the scheme another layer of tactical depth, even if barely.

you telling me this when all you do is post awkward walls of text and story fabrications no one cares about? lol

half of your posts in this forum are made up anecdotes involving people that don't even acknowledge they were there in order for you to delude yourself into imaginary forum brownie points. Invented stories of the past from a guy that sat in #ag playing random funners while everyone played league games, you were our Godmax and now you're posing as the second coming of Jmoberg trying to fool the new school.

You're missing the big picture though, that is, we're all aware  Everyone I've had the chance to speak privately with about the mutation of your personality from a half assed lazy fat american that played team17s to some sort of elitist wannabe that can't even rope; "did drugs take a toll on Skunk?" - they all agree. You're a walking parody. Thanks for the laughs.

It's around 9:30 A.M. in Spain?

It's almost 10 now

Quote from: skunk3Yeah, W:A (...) is pretty dated graphically, and it has an inferior physics engine than that of the 2.5D games

Lmao, how this guy survives a whole day is beyond me.

how can you be so deluded when you're so terrible at the game and ugly in real life?

Quote from: darkZI imagine you're having trouble understanding what makes this game unique for the competitive community because you haven't been playing this game competitively (I think I remember you saying that yourself, sorry if I'm mistaken).

Yes. But because he's now posing as an elitist old schooler (who competed in the funner scene because leagues are for wussies) so he has brought new material to the discourse. Sadly, it makes no f@#!ing sense. I don't think he even understands what physics mean in this context.

so you're talking about minorities using the term "majority"

that's odd

Down mid? that's terrible. Dunno if you rope but going up from down mid to a far side takes about the same time than going up from a far side to the opposite far side, assuming a normal rope map. You can't just ignore momentum or have a discussion about roping without considering how roping works. Also having to knock a worm eliminates the handicap of starting from the top because it takes around 3 seconds off the timer.

"there's a high chance the 2nd player can't attack at all" - this is made up nonsense, can you elaborate, specially on the "high chance" part?

zook provides more variation (assuming target is in a hard hide), and when there's more variation there are more chances for the better player to come on top: there's many different ways to shoot, there's wind, there's an usual requirement to knock etc...
