Check out game 969294 (in progress). UncleSamPresley is waiting until 5 seconds in a 2 player game when I can't start my turn and thus I lose my men for that turn while he is able to take a country.

He's done it before too.

Yep... It's a tactic of freestyle... Don't play it if you don't like it.

Tactic my ass...

That's an abuse of a flaw in the system. It's one thing for one guy to wait until the end, it's another to take advantage of Freestyle so that it prevents you from moving at all in a turn.

Don't play freestyle... Personally, I hate freestyle for just that reason.

As what Anarkistsdream has said, that is one 'tactic' that some, but not all players, use, when playing freestyle games. Freestyle games are pretty good in their own right - if played "fairly". You can play sequential games or make private freestyle games and choose the players for it.

- As long as UncleSamPresley continues to play this game style, especially to unsuspecting players, he will most likely receive feedbacks for it (and sadly, I will most likely learn about it).

fishing for negs, doesn't seem that farfetch'd as I'm doing it too. But then again none of my negs are from doing anything bad in the game. ;)

paradise city you are as smart as your pic makes you out to be and that's not very. I have played almost 3000 games and yes i give and receive feedback. Stick to your homework.... (And while you are at it hook me up with some neg feedback if you could ;)


dmgambone I've done it before and I'll do it again and again and again... lol. What you neglected to mention was that you attempted the same tactic against me only to be smacked by the hand of ELVIS!
