I usually keep 3 going and 1 open, in case a friend wants me to join one of his.

this is definitely true. Unless you want to play all trips and quads (aka BoganGod) or "near farm" (aka DavidHoekstra) then you can't really keep up 2500+ pts in more than 20-30 games, you just make tiny mistakes that sometimes might cost you a couple of games here and there
yes, I did just say what BoganGod does is just as bad as David, I mean, rejecting a challenge because "I have too much on my plate" then challenging right back with your settings? 
I Can keep 100 going and keep 3K in score and that is playing any and all types. Anyhow I hope to get it under 10 soon and keep it that way for a long time.
Oh I get it - you just haven't done it for over a year.
But you did it once upon a time.
Well done.
Maybe worth another go or do you still find the 3k score a bit easy and "watered down" as you put it.

TBH I've only been here 1 year.
Congrats on the colonel tho.
You must be blind as shit... When I gave 2 craps about score I was way over the brig limit. I have been screwing around for a long while now. Though I gave up score just about the time you probably took any notice of people and score. Hell I am just screwing around playing whatever from doodle earth assassin to 1 vs 1 seq... to whatever and still keeping my hat at most times.
Edited to add: After looking at your join date this would make perfect sense... I gave up score just about the time you joined and medal hunted with lots of doodle assassin games.
No I'm not blind as shit. Like I said I've never seen you close to Brig and I've been here 1 year.
I don't doubt that you did once or perhaps (?) could approach it again major bruce but your original comment intimated that you kept 3k score and 100 games.
Not true my friend but as you quite rightly point out it just hasn't happened for at least a year so like everyone that joined in the last year I'm "as blind as shit"
Thanks for the hilarious wall spamming by the way. Most amusing.

I saw your wings. I get the same thing all the time though. Ive hit brig three times, but gets so damn bored I shed those points faster than banks passed out bailouts to their employees.
Fitz - I didn't doubt that captain bruce had them once or was capable of them - he may even be a decent player - but when you intimate in a thread that you hover around 3k +100 games and it's not true *ahem* - you're open to a bit of ribbing, that's all.
But thanks for sending me the screenshot and the abuse bruce.

I usually like to have about 50 games going, but i frequently let them run down if the real world starts to get too busy.

Brucewar is right... he is one of about 10 guys I place on a player pedestal. The mother fucker will play any game and any setting and be a force.
I average 130 games (I would be around 200 if it was possible to have that many 8 man esc.s going) And I have a hard time staying here at 1700 ish points.
So when I see guys like this... I only have to admit to myself they are on a different CC level.
There was a time when he was a point whore and he had many more accolades... but he has much more of my respect now. For what ever that is worth.

is that me??? and no... will not happen. 1500 is the limit I think is mortally possible.
If you ever see someone at 2000, ask the mods to do an IP check... because its bogus.
1200 almost had me giving up, and im kind of a pretty stalwart kinda guy.
