CC 2000+ MAJOR'S GAMES!

AAFitz · Post by **AAFitz** » Tue Jan 23, 2007 6:23 pm

there is some confusion about this because of the super elite title which we will change to colonel games when master chief gets the chance

the Super Elite Games is a totally seperate entity, created for the top players on the site.

What we are proposing is open games for all colonels which will include doubles games, triples games and 3 and 4 player games

we are proposing that once you hit 2000 you can join...but after that you can have a safe zone...

i dont want to make any of these decisions...id like to hear everyones input on it to be honest

I'd definitely be interested. After reaching a high of 2500 before xmas I'm hovering around the 1990 mark right now. I hope there'll be a small degree of flexibility.

setting up a password will work fine. the hardest part will be to let others know it's one of these games. we can keep posting game numbers on this thread but there's got to be an easier way.

I think it is a great idea. I would be interested in playing.

. I like the idea of a safe zone that AAfitz brought up also.

im desperately hoping for tourney rights to be honest like the elite games....but we dont want to overload the system either if there isnt room for it....so if anyone has any ideas please post

if it has to stay in private games...my guess is that after we get used to seeing the names...we will know which is which because there will be mostly colonels in the games...try the password...if it works...your in...if not...move along...lol

I think 2,000 is too low. 2,500 is more harder to achieve. what I mean by that is, once you cross 2,500, the points become alot harder to hold onto and they dont rack up as fast. When I was a general not so long ago, you would get like 5 points per win and 50 points per loss. 2,000 is too easy to master, lose, and remaster.

than, once you cross the 2,500 barrier, you become a life time member. too many players have obtained 2,000.

also, i was too lazy to read the entire thread. forgive me if im repeating someone else.

Count me in, Fitz.

i do agree, and i dont expect as many high level colonels to join as mid to low colonels which is more the idea behind it

there are few enough players above 2500 that private games work fine

this makes it easy for colonels to join without as much of an extreme difference in score thats in elite...

and im sure several of the higher ranked colonels will join too, and no one joins as many games as you....you wont be able to resist...youll see

I agree with Fitz. I think that although it is quite the milestone to reach 2500, few have attained it. (I know I haven't), and I think I'm pretty good.

That doesn't mean though that your idea should be shot down completely. Sure, we can humor the "lifetime membership" concept if other people want to try that, but as Fitz said, when ptlowe and I came up with this idea, it was geared more towards those who were tired of losing to the low end of the "elite" range but still Colonels, and therefore were looking for a challenging group to play against. I see your point though JR, and if we get THIS up and running, then maybe we can see about making a separate more elite group (maybe the 2.5 club?) or something like that. Thanx again for all your support, and I think that if ptlowe doesn't show his sorry butt in there soon, his name should be taken out of the credit behind the idea, and should be replaced by AAFitz. ;-)

i think its a good idea, although i still do get a thrill from introducing a noob to the wonderful world of freestyle

eolver · Post by **eolver** » Tue Jan 23, 2007 11:02 pm

and by the way, my 2,000 points were not that easy to come by.

Master Chief · Post by **Master Chief** » Tue Jan 23, 2007 11:05 pm

Yeah..... it is harder for some. :-D

I made my climb to 11th, then got a horrible losing streak down to Lt., then climbed back up to 2301 just recently, and now I'm sitting here at around 2100. I guess that shows how much of a roller coaster this game can really be. It happens to all of us, even those that are considered 'good'.

AAFitz · Post by **AAFitz** » Tue Jan 23, 2007 11:23 pm

My 2000 points were very easy to come by...lack gave me 1000 to start and i only had to gain 1000 which was just 50 20 point wins

it was the 8000 points that i lost along the way that was annoying

and this isnt meant to replace open games at all

just give us a few games to play for fun

and credit is not due...i really just want the games to be there...will be a blast

Sounds like a good idea... a nice middle ground between elite and super elite.

I'd certainly play in a few games, although i'm not so sure on the lifetime membership thing. If you drop below 2000 then join a few elite games until your score is back up there. If you're good enough it will get back up, and if you're not then you shouldn't be in these games!

My 2000 were easy to come by after I became major(at game 500) and only lost 3 total games until getting up to like 2300 and losing a bunch.

Count me in :-)

Bogusbet · Post by **Bogusbet** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 3:25 pm

I will play.

I know that this is about qual games so peeps don't lose points playing newbs.

I ask all peeps who posted here to look back and see how they made the rank they are, majority will say dubs/trips with newbs.

The score system promotes this for gaining rank.

Look at yourself and say yes, I earned this, you don't believe it, I don't.

If I had given it another 7 weeks I would be top player here using the tactic I gave up before Xmas.
