IF (big if) there wouldn't be any cheaters.. CS GO would be a really great game. Still enjoy playing it tho'..gotta live with the ups n' downs.

There has always been cheaters on counter strike since day one I think, still love the game though.

Shtaket beat Frutiloops, and I don't see any games ya played with Prince.

lets open the flood gates, add ariel to classic, mole shooper and other popular schemes

reduce the season length, try 90 days again...

i think you need some motivation to play and a really long season is the opposite of that for anyone who is playing to try and make playoffs.

There is literally nothing to lose and with this little activity putting all the schemes in 1 pot to encourage the new players is fine.

mole shopper and aerial into classic, 90 days, sounds good to me.

put aerial into classic then we got something

Just open the flood gates, anything goes. Playerbase (competitive) too small to limit schemes.

ya

Inter and Big RR were removed from Free league when they were added in Allround league (and in default/rope). No scheme is in both Allround and Free league. When you play Inter, for example, the game is counted in both default and allround. Rope and default ladders give people another incentive to participate in the allround league. I'm sure many haven't even read the announcement regarding rope & default ladders so they don't know how everything works. I agree it's a bit complex system but activity isn't being split between leagues.

Allround seasons were 3 months long. Activity had dropped close to zero and there was no hope of playoffs. Instead of starting a new season every 3 months, MI decided to make the season indefinitely long so that people could still report their games.

I still don't believe the allround league would become any more appealing to newcomers if we added Mole Shopper etc. You'd also need to remove most of the Classic league schemes.

Well if activity is low, why remove classic schemes?

Seasons are a bit long.

HB!

QuoteThey would have to waste a massive amount of time trying to beat 30

Spend! .. not waste .. if they would manage to do so 

Spend is a much better and the proper word

I actually reckon either Masta/Mablak could achieve under 30s with the same ending, and a few extra speed moves thrown in, of course that's MUCH greater risk, but I believe these guys could pull it off if they had nothing better to do lol

Edit - Masta, how old are you?

They would have to waste a massive amount of time trying to beat 30 me thinks. Maybe not.

A lot of modern boardgames are pretty demanding, it has to be said. Catan is just within reach. You cannot expect people to learn 10+ pages of rules by heart, cause that usually takes about 10 hours.. which is too long for pick-up-and-play.
And most of the time, the easiest to learn games are the most fun.
Complicated ones are often 'scripted' and have the same outcome 9 out of 10 times.

Playing them on PC is far easier, I have a lot on Steam, but the downside usually is the dumb AI + crappy online multiplayer mode.

Yes, I do agree that many of the board games have fairly complicated rules to learn and most people who just want to pick up and play would be put off by them. I have probably 7 games still in the plastic that I haven't even opened yet because I can't get anyone to play. Whenever people I know get together all they wanna do is just drink, smoke weed, and talk, aside from my weekly poker night. Even then it can be hard to get people to pay attention to the game, especially when it's football season. (They play fantasy football - which is like D&D for sports nerds.)

The only board game that I have on Steam is Talisman. Oh and I have 100% Orange Juice but never really tried it. I prefer board games in person.

I think it might be a cool game, but it doesn't seem like a game that I could really get into, meaning wanting to play it multiple times a year.
