I know you all love the drama, so to keep you all entertained, here is some more:
first I do want to thank the moderators and volunteers for their good work on this site. They do a great job most of the time and I am thankful for that; it makes CC a great site.
However, one low ranking volunteer, whose name I can not pronounce....I think it has something to do with a sump pump or something....sugggested to me to end the game. I did end the game by the way.....I came at my opponnets huge stack with just 4 more troops than he had and luckily I won. Anyway, here is my response to him....again, just to keep you all amused.
JOhnny, good game, no hard feelings, nothing personal. I just wanted to win.....I play like my life depends on it....just like i play sports.
Maybe i take these games too seriously. On the bright side, I do not limit myself to just playing high ranking players. I open all my games to anyone and often lose to cooks and others with low scores. It is hard to maintain a high score when you do that.
I do feel like we are beating a dead horse here. Some of you , I know I will never convince that I meant nothing nefarious by playing the way I played. I did not intend to hold anyone hostage. Perhaps I could have ended it sooner. Maybe my math is flawed. Maybe I didnt realize that I was well past 99.5 percent chance of winning 2 or 3 rounds earlier. Maybe you are all better at the math than me and knew it was time, but I just didnt know yet. But at least I played.....my opponet rolled over and played dead for the last few rounds. I didnt expect that....I kept thinking he was going to come at me with really good dice and my defender dice would be terrible.

hey PSU86
Don't you think you have dragged this game on long enough? You are receiving 20 troops on your next turn. How about deploying where you can attack and attacking or deploying deploying where you can attack and then forting more troops there and finishing the game. Re: Game 14406933

sorry, but I dont take strategic advice from a sargeant.
what if your life depended on winning a game in CC? would you then play like I do? I 'm not dragging it out....just playing smart.
Perhaps you could learn a thing or two by watching my way of playing.
I would hate to be held hostage , no one has ever done it to me...and I am not doing it to anyone.
Sometimes losing a game is just not fun.
It is my contention that my opponent johnny rocket 24 is dragging it out by not doing anything but building (to a 20 stack by the way).....HE FAILED TO COME THRU NEUTRAL TOO...and that would have been his best bet on beating me. Each turn he waits, I stood a better chance of winning.
What makes you WRONG about it is that you fail to acknowledge that johnny rocket actually stood a CHANCE of winning (even if it is small). I just wanted to make that chance of his smaller. I have seen it all in my 10000 games on here....i've seen time and time again david beating goliath because the dice turn and favor one player and heavily disfavor another. I have been on the losing end of that many times. The difference i s that I congratulate my opponent afterwards....JOHNNY Just whines.
Some of you are just so closed minded too that you refuse to change your mind on the whole issue. Johnny got to you frist so you believe him blindly.
Let my 10,000 games be my defense. I have never blatantly held someone hostage (nor would I). I usually rate my opponent highly and include "good strategy"
Johnny , however, rates most with either 5 stars or one star....nothing in between. To Johnny the world is black and white. Good or bad. Not a continuum, but everything exists at the ends of the continuum. He can not even phathom how this could be part of a strategy. He just feels the pain o f losing (that we all have felt) and whines. All you that join him, are like a roomful of babies crying together in a preschool. Dont you all have anything better to do? I've seen some real jerks on this site and my play is not an example of it. If anyone needs to go sit in the corner, it would be Johnny for being a sore loser, and you followers of Johnny for feeling bad for his hurt ego; Johnny wins more games percentage wise than most who will read this...he does not like to lose (none of us does)....but most of us take it better than Johnny.
Perhaps Johnny should get out and play more sports? Sports will teach Johnny how to win and lose with grace. Unfortunately , Johnny wont learn that on CC as long as you enabling volunteers back him.
