Just Another Fucking Coincidence

[donkeymile]

4 games tonight against lower ranked players who just happen to be getting fucking amazing dice ... somewhere in the +15-20% range against me or neutrals in our game together ... and none of them were having dice that good until our game started ..

and at the same time I happen to be getting shit on by the dice gods ... except of course when the game is over ( they have 30-40+ terts I have less than 5) and I all of a sudden I win a 3v10, a 4v12 and I take a 4v22 down to 1v10.

Nothing new to anyone who's played here long enough - but just the kick in the ass I need to follow the exodus of long term players who used to enjoy playing here before 90% of the games were lopsided.

And yeah I know it's 1v1 so it comes with the territory - but 4 straight games of that absolute bullshit is just that - bullshit.

Earlier today I played a couple and was on the exact opposite of that - and that sucked too - who the f*ck wants to play bullshit games like that, win or lose?

Between this and the dice stats manipulation I've noticed (keeping everyone more or less even supposedly) it's time to follow lots of other good people through those doors ... its too bad too because this site has some great maps

Dice is like drop. You could blame drop and lose, like a Colonel did in a game I just played:

Game 11289544

Or you can man the f*ck up and win anyway, even when your opponent drops all of Aus and goes first.

Game 11288898

Do dice dictate your game, or can you develop a strategy that accounts for deviations in your expected dice results?

Yes,of course it can be done but its a lot easier to be a victim..

jesus dude.. just play better... the better players overcome bad dice over time... and dice bitching gives you renal failure..

Being as my score is almost what yours is - and the fact that I am in a downswing currently .... we are either both better players - or need to get better ..... lol

anyway .... yeah this was a stupid topic to start, must have been having a bad day or something - I don't even remember starting it. I do recall the dice STATS one I started and still stand by. Tonight I had about 130 v 56 and attacked ended at something like 60 v2 or so and my dice stats (3v2 battles) showed me at like +15% ... which is total bullshit ... oh well.

I blow at this fuckin game, my rank shows that... though i've been known to squeak over the 3000 point mark from time to time...
I do know however, that bitchin about dice has absolutely no impact on my score whatsoever and simply serves to piss me and others off more... so I just roll with it and enjoy the games.. (for the most part)
