Conquer Club

This is meant as a well-intentioned advisory. If you read gamechat for our recent Waterloo game, you will see this individual is
a liar and cheat, certainly not to be trusted. If you must play with this odious individual, I strongly advice avoiding any alliances or truces of any kind. I do not mind losing a fair fight in a fun game, but If I want to engage with a coward and liar, I will run for congress or work on Wall street.

If there isn't a complaint here then you put this in the wrong forum. I am moving this to GD.

Calm down, Jesus, it's okay...

SULLY LOCKED

NO ONE POST NOW THIS THREAD HAS BEEN SULLY LOCKED.

Unfortunately, they're only made out of styrofoam and balsa wood...

This thread does belong in GD! We should have a discussion in re of false truces, baiting and triple posting.

As coach Herm Edwards once said..."We play to win the game!"

If you're not playing to win here, then go join Facebook and play Farmville or some other "social networking game".

And as owenshooter mentioned...
1) Why is this in the GD?
2) Why isn't it considered a flame thread?

It isn't unreasonable to expect to play in an honorable game, where people win or lose in a way that is a credit to Conquer Club.

ever stopped to think about HOW he got to that score in such a low number of games?

Thanks ...Is there a liar/cheat setting I can use to filter?

Ultimately, I placed this advisory so honorable players interested in a conquer based on skill can "Foe" this personage and avoid the time I with this unsavory individual.

"Honorable" means many different things to many different people. You are attempting to impose your sense of "honor" on everyone else, and that is a failing proposition, indeed.

I play your equivalent of "honorably" and yet, I see nothing dishonorable in Kiron's actions. He played to win the game. That's why we're all here.

Oh lord...

Personally I would honour a truce, but I'm not naive enough to beleive everyone else will, nor foolish enough to expect it.
Before you slander someone by calling them a "cheat", you may want to read the rules. He hasn't broken them.

If you'd had a hint of humility perhaps one would be inclined to agree that you got a raw deal, but whining like a three year old and wrongfully screaming "cheat" isn't impressing anyone.

he is a liar!!! he is a cheater!!!! revoke his membership!!!! *insert more flames here*!!!!...-the black jesus

It seems you've discovered the foe feature, which is the only way to avoid playing him.

It would appear that he lied, but he didn't cheat by any definition of the word. He just lied. You have given your warning and the game number as proof for players who wish to play this game with your same code of honor. Thanks for doing that. However, as you've made your point, leave this be now. I'll consider further posts calling Kiron a cheat to be flames, and the thread will be locked. You're not a new member, so you should know better.

I've also edited the title of the thread. If you feel he's a coward, there is a rating tag you can apply when the game ends, but keep it out of the forums.

Thank you Master Fenrir...I shall respect your wishes.

I can't believe that there are still crappy players who still use diplomacy.

...so why are you clapping, then?

I love obscure quotes....Thanks to all in the community who support my thinking on this subject.

All zero of them, from what I can see in this thread.

let's add those up... zero... maybe you should add a poll to this flame thread...-the black jesus

I would but it's my time to clean out my sock drawer and scoop the litter box.

I'm sorry if you feel "cheated". However, this is a game, and as such, many have different definitions of what is considered "fun". My version is to win points, yours may be different. However, in a war scenario, fair fights don't win you the battle. Look at Agincourt for example, would the English win if they fought "fairly" with the French? I personally find the beauty of playing risk is politics and intrigue, if you can't accept that then you should not be playing flat-rate settings where that is what the games usually boils down to.

You also seem to forget, a loss for me is equivalent to a win in points, my starting chance of winning is only 1/8, I have to make up that with something...

P.S. Why is this post still here? Why is it not locked and the offender given a warning for flaming? There is a rating button that can be given if the victim feels wronged.
