I can´t stand anymore playing with rookies against veterans. I am new to this game, but not from Risk and many strategic games. Is really not random, i see all the time teams of rookies against teams of veterans.

Is not possible all the time i have so dumb teammates even if i talk with them, i speak nicely, i say please, i encourage, i help. They just ignore me and do crap at our team even
in games when i decide to say nothing about it (so you can´t say i am annoying), they do many things to prejudice our team.


I really think people are taking advantage of that and using multiple accounts to make their veteran accounts earn more points. They try to disguise as really really dumbs to make our team lose, but some of their actions do not fool me.

It's not supposed to be random, it goes by the order you join the game. And mostly if you see a team of similarly high ranked players that's because they want/are used to play together and join together.

It would be cool to have an option for random. (But then you will get complaints about that. :roll: )
But to make all team games random, it not a very good idea, and will be hated by most of CC. (Specially for tournaments).

people often play partners when they might know each other ,or something.. this is not cheating. also they may have taught each other,and have the same kind of strategy ... some people enjoy playing with certain people.. not to mention you wouldnt want to get stuck with someone you dislike. (not that i dislike ANYONE)

Most veterans who play team games do so because two veterans who know eachother, against two random rookies, will almost always win with very little risk. It's a less risky way to rise in rank. This is why I can never play team games; because I know I'll always end up against an experienced team.

Random team mates in a doubles??? NO,Thank you. [-X

I have tried playing doubles, but as I have no regular doubles partner, I would get a player that
A) deadbeats or
b) does not play as a team (at least not OUR team)

It is no fun playing in doubles, when your partner does not pull his weight.

To play doubles or any team games, I would only considering playing with a proven doubles partner.

Most of the time in higher-ranked team games, those teams have worked together before. It was an intentional decision to join as a team. Whenever you're on the "Join a Game" page and you see a full team of a high-ranks, I wouldn't join unless you have a specific team in mind to face them. To get a team together, there's no set way. You can make a thread in the callout forum, or you can keep playing singles and if you see somebody you like playing well, send 'em a message asking if they want to play a few doubles games.

What I did was just avoid team games with low rank players. I just kept playing singles until I was about 1500 points. This way I didn't drop into a team of random players that wouldn't check the chat or share ideas, etc.

THen get a team together before you join. Forcing other people to have random partners just because you don't have a regular one is just stupid...
