why is there never a 3 player standard freestyle unlimited escalating game available on classic map, not one. I understand why not many like them but i thought there would be two others who want one game in such a large site. but no.

Never and never will.
Freestyle is bad enough with that "legal" thing that everyone does (you know what I mean).
Someone would just work the system and ruin the game.
My opinion anyway.

not everybody wrangles the system and you could just learn how to do it so you are square with those that do
o i would love o know who that was

Never ever, but what are you talking about though ... there are many games like that (finished that is) So they have been played.

Sounds like a fun game to me. If you ever want to play one just pm me.
I don't think Freestyle is broken either. Sure its not a perfectly fair system like sequential, but if you care more for fun than for ranks then it allows a much quicker game and in my oppinion can be alot funner.

That game is often brought up for RT play in the Live Chat room and the games typically are password protected so you don't see them in the main public section.

yeh i know but even wen they aren't rts they fill up quick. i find its actually quicker to get an rt together by simply makin the game public then chances r people will at least start it in rt if every1 is there....

I just don't play freestyle...and not just because of the above mentioned 'legal' thing, rather because I just like to be sure of the order of play.

i usually find a couple of private ones up for play and i am yet to find a public one ever
I dont want to play rt ok if im on ill play for a while and if i commit i will always finish but just because i want a low player freestyle game does not mean i want rt.
edit: i apologise i have joined one in the last couplke of days but my point still stands why do so few play them

I've played 6 of those, and won 5 (not that that's relevant but I thought I'd draw your attention to it anyway

). However, the game numbers are all pre-20,000, and I quit playing freestyle ages ago. Freestyle blows, and it will continue to do so until Lack gets around to closing the loopholes.

Just make your own games. That's what I do. Mind you, I ONLY make sequential…

I used to play that format all the time but then got pissed with freestyle because there is so little skill unless it is realtime. Also, there are just too many opportunities to abuse the rules. But if I was offered a realtime I would say, "Hell Yes!".

Im sure you dont find these games because the get full too quickly...
But, I voted never... I hate freestyle for singles, and I totally hate 3 people games.
