"We don't use the same 50k file, we have something better" then why, rabbiton, is this happening in two games simultaneously: In one, I'm consistently rolling 0-2, 0-4, 0-6. In two rounds me and my opponent had deployed the same amount, but I was down 16 regions and had less troops. In another game, my opponent won 28v41 with 9 leftover. But yeah, no streaky dice, definitely improved. Keep talking bullshit man. Or maybe be honest to your paying customers about where this piece of shit dice algorithm is coming from.

I think the dice algorithm is a pile of shit. I think bigWham is fake and a liar. He says we no longer use the 50k file and instead have something better, but outright refuses to give his paying customers any details on where the dice are being sourced from. As customers who pay year on year, don't we have a right to know we're not paying for a faulty product? Also, why has nobody noticed an improvement? Isn't that odd? Sure, you will always get people who non-stop complain about the dice, but they're usually idiots. Personally, I don't make a habit of whining about dice rolls, and many players I know don't either, but they all say these dice are fucked. You can't label everyone who says the dice are shit with the same crap excuse. If they're so much better than the 50k file, why doesn't bigWham tell us how they're better?

Who is THEY? And where are they now if they are saying this?

Every time a low rank complains about dice, they get gang banged by people like you. But when a high rank like you complains, That's OK?

Your lucky streak has ended is all, just like it does for everybody. Take your lumps like everyone else.

Oh Yeah, "Suck it up cupcake".

That was clearly meant as a joke.

You know, there used to be people who once said "vinyl records are dead." (I might have been one of them.) But it's not dead. Even CD stores (who are probably dead these days as well) have signs that says "we sell vinyl." The people who buy vinyl records today were probably born after the CD player.

Clearly this isn't going to be "Angry Birds." But the potential for a niche market means that, yes, the number of active users on this site could increase. By significant multiplies? Probably not. I don't think we need to move the system to the Amazon Cloud in order to handle massive scaling problems (and we don't have latency issues that would require major server distributions to geographic regions; it's nice for Asians, Americans, and Europeans to play the same game, even if they don't do it at the exact same time).

Even if we somehow saw a minimal increase, my point of tailoring this site towards those who play every day still stands, versus trying to find ways to increase membership. Those who would fit your description of a niche market player would come anyway.

"We don't use the 50k file any more, we have made improvements" whilst I lose 7v1, 9v1 in the same game, and 18v2. Okay bigWham, please continue to be a lying piece of shit. Also a 12v4 loss, and two 9v3 losses. Dice aren't streaky like the 50k file though guys, oh no.

We did make an improvement. Certain players were targeted with shitty dice with the intent that they would get so frustrated that they would leave.

We didn't expect a 100% attrition rate, but were hoping for at least 60%.

Hey guys, Mets asked me to let you know he's sorry for what he said today in the forums and on PMs.

he accidentally did cocaine.

long story short, an escort did cocaine on his nightstand, days later he found there was a little bit of it left in a small crack on the nightstand. a small crack, tried to take it out with a q-tip, didn't fit. so he finally blew at it, but the ceiling fan threw the powder back at him and he inhaled it.

Yeah that's pretty much what I'm using it for. Should I start documenting all of them rather than just the absurd ones?

dear caff, the "it's not a lie, if you believe it" bit only works when the person you're attempting to use it on DOESN'T KNOW you're lying... ;)

How old are you dude? In your 40s right? All I see you do is post the same old boring shit, brown-nose people who are funnier and more popular than you are, and play online risk like a retard. It's shocking you haven't outgrown that kind of behaviour. I've told you before if you dropped dead I wouldn't care, but maybe you could try and live a little first. Just an idea. You're gonna have to find something to do, because if you keep on the same path you won't be posting here much longer.

I'm not usually one to become bothered by such behaviour, but when I get harassed by you in the public forums, the Platinum Lounge forums, on my wall and via PM, it gets tiresome. I think I've reported you for it twice in total now, and I'm happy to keep going since you seemingly are too.

Decided I should edit out the parts speaking about being able to ddos and dox you with ease. I doubt you'd want your personal information leaked.

Who even threatens someone with that. Really childish, it's a Risk forum ffs. You need a punch in the face, told you're a bellend & sent to the nearest pub to sort yourself out. Can't even use the shit weather as an excuse for your behavior, it's fucking lovely out. Now stop being a cock.
