Conquer Club

I have a kinda awkward situation in one of my fog games. I wanted to post an image of it in my clan forum just for the giggles. No one from my clan is in the game. is this OK to do?

I don't see why it would be.

wait? so it's obvious to you that this would not be OK? or is that a typo?

it wouldn't be against the rules to post it in here. there is no rule against disclosing positions in fog. period. trench/fog have ruined the diversity of play on the site and contributed heavily to the decline from almost 30K to now hovering around 7k. who cares what some fog apologists think? it isn't against the rules. i would love to see what you are talking about in here. thanks...-Jn

OK then. Thanks. Here's a cross post of what I put in my clan:

8 player Feudal Epic turn 40. Blue is bearing down on Barbarian Castle. I just spend all my bombardment on the stack, and there's still 172 coming my way.




Next round blue misses a turn (must have missed some turns earlier in the game too) and gets kicked. Well shit....



So I dont know how I lose this game... but I dont know how I win it either LOL

how many players? and yeah, that SUCKS!-0

I think there's 5 left of 8 at this point. at least one other player has two castles, and I effectively have 2 castles... not unwinnable I guess, but still weird. especially since I'll probably get ganged up on earlier based on territory counts. its flat spoils, so its not like I can just burst out at some point... 30 turns from now I guess I'll be able to bombard it away..

yeah, meant it would be fine. sorry about that...

lol, stfu Owen - trench/fog have ruined the diversity of play on this site. do you know how stupid that sounds???
diversity has killed diversity!!!
oh noes!!!

hasn't fog been around for like forever?

The only thing fog has "ruined" is the log tag and then only when someone takes your territory. (Wait, you mean it was my territory? My memory is in a fog.)

no... you can look at the graph of the decline and pinpoint the exact moment it was introduced...-Jésus noir

So it's now fog that's 'killed' the site

Last month it was trench and the month before it was clans.

Boring.....

no, i think myself and others have clearly outlined the decline/demise of the site. if you want me to list them all categorically each time one of them is mentioned, please state so. it is not "boring", it is a solid opinion based on fact. the site has done next to nothing to address the decline, aside from a hidden forum where anti-semitism flourishes (before that, it was racism). so, sorry if you find it boring, put your head back in the sand. users have clearly outlined reasons for the decline and it is not my fault if you choose to ignore them...-Jésus noir

who are these "others" you speak of? are you schizophrenic?

A couple of years ago we had a sudden epidemic of new players who came into GD to echo everything Owen said. "The site is too confusing! There are too many maps! There are too many options! I can't play regular Risk in this chaos!"

Funny, they couldn't figure out how to select regular options from the game menu, but they had no problem finding their way to GD and figuring out how to post. I thought nothing of it at the time.....

Perhaps you should have listened to those new players, rather than treating them as an "epidemic", and ignoring them.

go play some games, sym...

But every time you try to play this card with me, you lose. I get no real satisfaction out of beating you, and you don't learn. Why do you bother?

you cant beat me if you don't play, sym. when will you figure out no one wants to hear insights about our beloved game from someone who doesn't even play. it's like catstevens bitching about obama and admitting he never voted. sheesh.
ps - even if you DID play, the jury is still out on whether or not anyone would want the opinions of a troll...

A jury trial would be intriguing, I'd have to put you on the stand as a witness for the defence, given your fascination with my posts. You'd probably have to plead the Fifth.

There is no difficulty playing games on the site. A five year old could figure it out. The fact that all these people parroted your stock lines like well-rehearsed salesmen, and that they all appeared at around the same time, makes it pretty clear to me.

I know you have enough respect for the site rules not to create multies. On the other hand, there's no rule against signing up your friends and relatives to come and parrot your lines for you.
