by **gibbom** on Tue Jul 17, 2007 5:46 am

Congrats blitz, see what happens to your score when you haven't played me for a while :lol:

Top effort and I'm sure you'll be the first "new" general in no time!

Well done Blitz

Congrats blitz .... up to the top yet another time

congrats on being just the 4th brigadier in cc history =D>

Timing is everything huh blitz? you had almost a 1000 more points than this at one point, and now youre getting congratulated for a rank that signifies you being a 1000 points below what youve already had, and being 4th at it to boot

congrats though...glad to accompany you in a few games on your return

by **maniacmath17** on Tue Jul 17, 2007 8:43 am

while its true that blitz has been at a higher rating before, it is clear that team games are much harder to win now that new recruits aren't allowed to join, plus deadbeats armies are given to teammates. neither of these rules were in place back when blitz went over 4000.

so even tho he's been higher before, getting to 3500 is harder now than its ever been for a teams player.

Congrats!!!

that may or may not be true mm17, no one else back then was even close to doing it, the next closest to my almost 4400 rank back then was around 3200 and many were trying, it was extremely difficult regardless of how anyone got there, you remember, you, I, and loudawg played together against newbs and lost like 60 and 70 points, not easy to do or recover from, plus the ranks back then almost 6 months ago were not as high as everyone has now either, and don't forget, i played about 350 singles too if you count terminator games, but you are right, I enjoy teams much better and find it more challenging, only my opinion.

well i was only pointing out that its tougher now to win public team games, due to the new rules in place, making your achievement all the more impressive, congrats.

Congrats Blitz, next stop.....

back to brigadier, as he has already fallen to a colonel

by **alster** on Wed Jul 18, 2007 3:16 am

Sorry to have put you on the road back to captain Blitz...

Nah. Serious, looks like you have the upper hand in a few of the games left. Guess it will even out, or worse, I may see myself donating some points. *grumble*
