I don't give a rats hind portion if we finish 2nd. I want to win every game we play. I look at it like F-1. There are two stats that matter, who wins the championship and how many races you win. Game wins are like race wins. Hamilton is still going to win this year (write that down).

Wondering how did you know your dice were gonna be that good in the USA 2.1 though... But it doesn't matter, we'll still win USA 2.1.

I guess we will see soon enough.

Our dice were good in one round. How about when we had 10v3 to break you and didn't?

Well, how about 3 times in a row we are attacking stack vs stack and can't go through, losing more than you even though we have offensive advantage ?
And after your missed 10vs3 I missed 13vs6 so your failure was not important since you still go to break me.
And your dice were apparently very good too, I am wondering if you lost any troops in your previous turn rockfist.

But I agree, we'll see soon enough.

how about 25 troops lost to kill a 6? too much bs.

more like which driver wins and which team wins. I'm pretty sure you can tell me who won those titles these last few years, but have no clue either of how many wins they had.

Don't know why I still post updates, y'all seem to have it figured out already.

Results and standings (R1 to R11) are updated and posted on the first page:

Probably not in most seasons for most drivers, but

91 Schumacher
51 Prost
43 Hamilton
42 Vettel
41 Senna
32 Alonso
31 Mansell
25 Stewart

That's off the top of my head...I would guess Jimmy Clark is next but it's just a guess.

And I looked it up and I am wrong about Stewart, but it is Clark after Stewart.

well I knew that schumi had 91, and thought by now that prost had been overtaken. Thought that alonso had more than that.
For me this ranking is not more interesting that the amount of points a driver got throughout his career; or the average position when a driver finishes a race, or the ratio of started/finished races; or the ration in unfinished races between driver mistakes and car failure/other driver mistake... or the average position compared to the teammate.
The fact that it's the most important stat for you doesn't make it a general consensus!
bottom line: the only thing that really is important, is to win a championship. ask any driver (not counting drivers that never won a race)

for example, I know that Keke, Nico Rosberg's dad won a championship in the 80s winning just 1 race!

those are important too but points change weekly for most drivers and the new points system 25 vs 10 or 9 makes comparisons difficult, so I pay less attention to it than I used to.

How is TOFU vs LHDD shaping up?

Undecided still.
Looking like TOFU will have 4 points , and LHDD is still at 1. But remaining 3 games can still go either way. It's still even possible that we turn back one game and finish 5-3 ( but not counting on it).

You never mention the great rolls your team has . Orange had a 15 - 5 roll in round 5 I believe and on his last roll he managed to bomb off 22 of our troops. Of course, back in round 3...2016-04-08 10:03:56 - loutil [team]: Brutal dice. Grey clears 21 on his turn and I go 0 - 8 on mine. LOL

None of us ever remember our good rolls (maybe sometimes we remember our great rolls), but we can talk about below average rolls in specific games all day long.

I've had countless 9-3 type rolls in CC (when you play as many games as I have its a given)...can't say any of them stick out, do I enjoy them - yup...do I remember going 3-9 or thereabouts in important clan or tournament games - yup.

Going to lose a tournament game and be eliminated where I needed to win a 9v1v1 to break a bonus and failed. Will I remember that, yes, especially since its a recurring tournament that I have won the last two of.

as i said... not because we don't use all our stack to bomb means we are only using one round of full loading to bomb. you have no idea how much we had... and it's orange who bombs, not grey.
Bottom line, we've been dropping roughly the same since the start of the game and we're now clearly behind. you've had some 11v16 advance 4 and stuff like that so stop talking about selective memory.

First, this has nothing to do with selective memory unless we are talking about you. You complained about the dice, I only responded to you. Second, it WAS grey in round 3 who bombed from Gendarmerie. Go back and read the log . As I said in game chat. Sometimes the dice work well and sometimes they do not. You were the one being selective when you decided to bring that one roll here to the forum. If you had been fair you might have said you had a shit roll at a bad time even when you have had some stronger rolls earlier. Sometimes it is not the roll but the timing of the roll that ultimately impacts the game...

In this i agree, the diceroll i had makes us lose the game unless a miracle happens, and most likely the league, so yes, i'm sour about it. I seriously rolled 0-2 ten times straight.
Just like on the previous round against ret where we had a 52v40 to win the game, failed by a lot and lost the game, a point in away games and the league

Yes it sucks bet, but I'm sure that TOFU and FALL can also remember some games in this league where they had dice fail that cost us 1 point.

So sadly for us our dice fail happened at a bad moment, but that's what this game is all about! 2 good clans facing each other, both having a good strategy, it often comes down to this!

We'll do our best to win 3 more against TOFU, because if we don't FALL is champion! Still, what a finish for this league! Nice job guys!

I notiuced that RET had 9 1 9 and 19 points after round 10 but has 8 1 12 and 17 points after round 11. It seems their 1 win is taken out from them, or was that mistakenly counted before in round 10?

I'll check, thanks.

[EDIT] It was a mistake in round 10. The current numbers are correct.

I'll even put this out there. We had a game against Fallen on Antarctica that they should've won, where they failed to take the Pole with a ridiculous dice fail (unless I was very much mistaken). Oh it'd have taken a bit more than that to clear us but the odds were more than a little bit in their favor of doing both. After the dice fail we walked it.

I'm sure we won other games that we didn't deserve to win, but I was in that game.

Ice don't buy the polish for your trophy just yet. the dragons can still get this!!
