A few observations (questions) from a newbie...

1. So I'm a (0 - 0) ratings, however I am not a n00b risk player. I have 4 games going, in one game we are annihilating our opponent because we are all using team chat and working together. Why in the other three games do my allies not talk?

2. Why is there players with (lots - hardly barely a fraction of the wins). I understand some players are damn good, lots better than me, but it reminds me of C&C: Generals, where people just quit if they are losing, therfore not recording a lose. I understand that people are good, and likely better than me, but noone chooses their allies and will always lose because they arn't nearly as good as them. I dont want to sound critical, if you go for a 1v1 and you are good you can get very good win-lose scores, I just want to play a game where someone with those kind of hig win scores are just generaly good and not because they artifically increase it. Urr, its not a statement, but its a rhethorical question really to see other players opinions.

3. I'm I paranoid?

Thanks for any advice you guys can provide, even if it is just flames!

Ok before you get flamed... the 0-0 is not a game score but feedback from other players positive-negative...
I would suggest you read the rules, instructions, and the faq.
as for chat in team games... I would suggest you play some single games get to know people then play with them as team mates then you will get partners that will actually be a partner.

And Welcome....
Now assume the position! :P

Yeah, I'd second the idea of playing more single games and getting to know people befor just walking into random team games. Be very wary of team games that are all set up by one team, just waiting for some new victims to drop in. The much better way is to get a couple of steady teammates together that you can develop a good working system with.

Often you can meet people and hook up with teammates by joining a clan.
I've heard that the Staches are a particulary friendly bunch....lol
