With very few exceptions all the top players have little or no bad feedback,there is a good reason for this. If you play honourably then you will always get invited to games with other good players and not have to slog it out with lower ranks and risk losing a ton of points every game.
I arrange a great deal of the elite singles games and one particular player kept screwing up the games with suicidal attacks,he now no longer gets invited so is playing with lower ranked guys and consequently losing points because of it. If you get a reputation as a good solid player than those above you will welcome you to games and you can progress upwards,those with bad reputations will always suffer and in the long run saving a few points by dubious tactics will backfire.

Which is all fine and dandy, i'm just saying that people shouldn't be jumping to conclusions about my play style just based on one instance.

in round 7
2006-11-29 14:23:49 - agoran receives 3 armies for 1 territories
2006-11-29 14:23:55 - agoran cashed in a set of Galloway, Cornwall, and Cheshire worth 10 armies

I know he was down to one army because I had just failed to take him out and get his cards.

round 17
2006-12-07 10:01:08 - agoran receives 7 armies for holding South England
2006-12-07 10:01:08 - agoran receives 2 armies for holding Land's End


In the end he didn't win, but it was close.

All this worry about points. Have any of the higher ranked players received any benefit from having more points? Do you get a great t-shirt to where around for everyone to see? Or do you just have to find your self worth from a game. Do highly ranked people really think they are any better than the other people playing. My games against people with fewer points are just a enjoyable as games against people with more points, except in the case of deadbeating which ruins a game against higher point or lower points. Points are points and they get you nothing, especially outside CC. I don't respect anyone anymore or anyless based on points. Respect from me comes from how you act as a person. I have seen many high and low ranked people act with very little class.

But all in all--whatever trips your trigger.

I would say the main advantage of having a reasonable amount of points is that it gives you more flexibility in choosing games/type of opponents.
