Conquer Club

There has been a "friendly" tournament proposed between Major Command, Landgrab and Conquer Club (and possibly other sites) ...but it seems that there has been very little response for this from CC. Considering ,the amount of pride and muscle flexing here at CC, it seems that this opportunity is being overlooked, as very little interest has been expressed...maybe its been in the wrong forum to catch ppl's attention?

Info is in the "Tournament General Info forum" or just search "Major Command" Take a look...

Isn't Landgrab the website that steals map ideas from CC?

I'm sure they have....but is that relevant to a tournament between the 3 sites? Haven't all the sites really "borrowed" variations of a certain map?

Of course those other sites want to engage in publicity stunt tournament with Conquer Club. I bet the bodega down the street would love to run a cross promotion with 7-11 too.

not at all... all the maps here are created by members, and wholly original. those sites have literally stolen maps from this site without payment or acknowledgement and claimed them as theirs. why would CC be involved in a tournament with 2 other sites that are nowhere near the caliber of CC? it would be acknowledging them as somewhat "equal" and/or "relevant"... and guess what? neither are. i appreciate your starting this thread to spam up the forums, because nobody here would bother to look at either of those garbage sites, but you can go now. i am one of CC's biggest critics, and realize how superior CC is to both of those sites. perhaps if they both keep stealing from CC they will eventually be able to be in the same conversation as CC, but as of now neither is relevant... bye!!-el Jesus negro

owenshooter...gimme a break. All wholly original? ALL the sites are based on the game Risk. Or maybe Hasbro borrowed the concept from CC? Actually, the board game resembles CC's Classic map....down to continent values.

Why get into a tournament? For the fun of it? Maybe if you think of it as an exhibition game...even the best soccer teams from Europe come to play against MLS teams. This does not, by any stretch of the imagination, mean that L.A. Galaxy are anywhere close to the caliber of Man U or Barcelona or Juventus...

I'm sorry that you think I started this to spam. If you're not interested, that's fine. Maybe some others may think of it as fun...

Bertie..., May I call you Bertie?

I believe the response the others are trying to convey can be condensed down to this, 'Our shit don't stink boy, run along'.

there are 196 maps... many of them have unique game play created by members that hasbro does not feature. the maps are originals, you are sighting the ONE map that is based off of a certain board game... again, why would CC be involved with this, it is an attempt by the other 2 to garner publicity and be in the same conversation as CC... and besides, how could lack charge members of other sites to play in this tournament (HA!!!!)...-el Jesus negro

Beer has posted the same thing in several areas, can't we get all these things merged into one damn topic and area?
Its a bit annoying to see the same stupid challenge posted over and over again..


MODS?

man united is paid to participate in friendlies across the world.

tell the guys from the other sites to start writing checks and buying t-shirts and we'll talk

Sure just tell all landgrab players and MajorCom players to come over here and we can have a tourney here on CC grounds... if you can beat us we will be your slaves... if you can't you have to stay here until you learn how to play.

MC owners were former CC players anyways, so they would sure know how to play!

Nope.

CC maps are totally original, made by CC members. We don't allow stolen material to be used here, we make sure each map that goes through the process uses 100% original material made by the mapmaker.

Landgrab, on the other hand, has stolen actual map images that are made by CC members and used them as their "own".

Whats the purpose? I wouldn't even bother LOOKING at those other sites. Perhaps you should convince christians, buddists and devil worshippers to engage in a tourney as well.......Dodge, Chevy, Foed (uh, Ford) would be fun too......hmmm.

Good luck with that-

Natty....Classic is original? Gimme a break. ALL these sites are based on risk & ALL have a variation of the classic risk map...ours even has the same continent bonuses etc. And yes...this is the only map I was referring to in my comment about borrowing a variation of a certain map. Certainly was not taking ANY credit away from any other maps.

And if you do a search in the forums, it seems that the admin of landgrab actually came here to determine if any maps were stolen & promised to remove them from landgrab immediately. As he should have. Question is who stole the map(s) and was it sanctioned? Perhaps it was a CC defector missing the maps here (and hopefully was barred). By landgrab's admin's actions, I doubt he would have sanctioned it.

Oh that's right, I almost forgot... landgrab allows pretty much anyone to make maps and put them up for play. No quality control at all...

You could very well be right.....however, what has anything about maps have to do with what this thread was about...other than hijacking it?

Hey, maybe you guys are right...why should CC participate? What is there to gain? Nothing! This is the largest site with the best maps the best players. There is nothing to prove, not even in a friendly competition. After all, landgrab & major command are not even worth of mention in the same sentence. CC dominates in all aspects. Right?

I don't think that there is anyone in the world that would not agree that the U.S. is the best in the world in basketball...hands down! No one can even come close. And look what happened when the U.S. brought its best to the Olympics. They kicked everyone's a$$! Well, except for 2004 when they took bronze Maybe they should not have used the pros & just claimed that whatever happens in the olympics, they are still the best & that claim is enough for them....cause that's all that counts! Besides, the other nations used (stole) strategy developed in the U.S & even hired U.S. coaches! Maybe they STILL should have got the gold in 2004 using this criteria. But no, that would not be good enough...they came back & proved that they were the best...again & again...

But here, meh, why bother....CC is best and as long as we believe it, who cares....

Quite honestly, I couldn't give a rat's a$$, I saw this tournament invite & thought it was a cool idea, posted it where I thought it would get more response & instead had everyone jump all over me. Sure as hell I wouldn't be playing in it but would have enjoyed watching it. Didn't expect such hate. I'll go back to playing my 4 games....just as I have for the last 2 tears...

I hope landgrab is paying you well, Bertie.

I don't understand what you want? You want to have like a tournament with the best players on each site? I don't think anyone gives a shit enough to want to do this.

Actually, no... (what defines a best/good player anyway). It looked like a good proposal, I posted where I thought more would see it, maybe some would find it interesting. I guess you're right...no one gives a shit...I would have thought it to be a challenge, guess not.

ROTFLMFAO!

I guess you never hit a key next to the one you intended to....yes, freudian slip. I'm in tears...in the presence of such an awesome player as you that speaks of themselves in the third person....

And your rank is??????
