Blaming Clickies (when you're the one at fault)

by **Tupence** on Tue May 03, 2011 11:29 am

Be honest! Have you ever blamed clickies for your own mistake, such as in reading the map or advancing and then realising your error?

These new clickable maps as default have in fact screwed me a few times. At least 3 or 4 times, including once today, Ive hit the E key which has ended my assaulting...

This is why I don't use clickies, or do freestyle anymore.

The only time I blame clickies are when there are tight territories, and even though I'm clicking on one territory, it either doesn't advance my troops or it attacks another. It's annoying, especially when I'm over the right territory.

Then again, it doesn't happen too often.

I've made mistakes because of clickies and blamed clickies. On Rail Europe, in case you were wondering. The circle region highlighters that come with clickies overlap on that map (and others, I'm sure).

I'm not ashamed to say I have once or twice.

When it kills me is during reinforcement, when it auto-selects the destination, and that's where I'm going, and I'm too fast on the mouse click to select so it moves ALL and I'm skrewed.

I've messed up using Clickies due to my error before, but I've never blamed the add on for the mistake.

I have blamed the site one for messing me up, though. Mainly when it was first introduced and there was no message warning us to reinstall BOB/Clickies yet.

by **karelpietertje** on Tue May 03, 2011 4:38 pm

Yes, I do it all the time

I'm ashamed to say I have once or twice

Of course not! I'm an honest player

What's clickies?

Of course I blame clickies, when clickies is to blame. I don't do it all the time, because it only happens rarely.
I'm not ashamed of blaming clickies, so which the f*ck option am I supposed to pick?! :evil:

I think the excuse is best used during team games where you don't want to look like your an idiot

by **Funkyterrance** on Tue May 03, 2011 11:34 pm

His question is whether or not you have blamed clickies when it was not clickies fault if you read his first post.

Whenever I win, it's because the clickies didn't stop my ingenuis, well plotted strategy. When I lose, it's them being a bum. ;D

Edited the title to make it clearer!

A couple of times I've blamed a wrong wind direction or sun shining to my eyes. Not clickies, though. Clickies are all right. At first I thought I wouldn't use them, but then I warmed up to them and found them really convenient. I tried the add-on clickies once and didn't like them, but I like the ones on-site, they're convenient.

I blame the map not loading all the time. it causes me to deploy in the wrong area. but clickies are fine. The only time i blame clickies is when i hit the right mouse button instead of the left one and my troops don't advance and my raging tyrade through 1's stops prematurely.

by **Mageplunka69** on Wed May 04, 2011 9:42 am

all i know is when i tried using the new clickies, they did some strange things....drops, advancement, forting......once i went back to the old ones, all my frustrations ended and i have nobody to blame but me

2011-05-03 22:46:45 - Rodion [team]: I advanced all and they adv 0 - clickies?

oops I shouldnt write this, I make way more mistakes and usually my fault

by **tarman2010** on Sat May 07, 2011 6:08 pm

Only time I've blamed clickies was when it was a combo of clickies and my mouse. My old mouse had a nasty habit of randomly counting single clicks as double clicks, which combined with clickies to result in several, highly frustrating, entire stack advancements when I didn't want to move them all.

by **gannable** on Tue May 10, 2011 9:01 pm

clickies have ruined many games for me

i have them uninstalled never to return

Hickies are back in a big way. So much that our treasured site has finally forgone and adopted them into it's permanent style of play. Giving a scag a hicky was admirable then and is more than commendable today.

It isn't the hickies that need to do the going, it is the naysayers trying to cover it up for what it was meant to be!! You and your damned turtlenecks are the one's to blame!!
