Pretty disgusted at this point and would like to be put on the inactive list.
My overall dice stats are 0% of course, but my last 5 battles? are -4% on assault, -76% on defense, and -22% overall...these are typical for the last week. I'm generally a mediocre player, well below average in 1v1, the dice are just the last straw. In my poly game against Elaterate I actually got a decent set of rolls to possibly hold him off, but that was followed by an amazing set of rolls for him which wiped my entire progress out...friggin unbelievable.
I'll be finishing my games out and not starting any new ones for the foreseeable future.
Best,
Russ

Looked at the inactive players tab and I was 25-11. High rank of number 1. I’m not mad about that. :)

Starting at the bottom (26th place), I will challenge [player]Philbro[/player].

My game: Game 18784162
Neutral game: Game 18784163

Posted on his wall.


Philbro wrote:Sorry, I thought I responded a while back to be taken out of the challenge group. I just came back to the game after a long while out to play a game or two with my brother, and am not looking to get involved in a bunch of games right now.

Thanks, Phil


Since Phil is no longer on the Ladder, this will be considered a forfeit...challenge, match, and Inactive status recorded...

Dude! :-s I already called dibs on Erik's dibs. I protest, sir. :(

But seriously... Your match with Russ, even though you have already won it with 2 games, is incomplete. You must finish your final game to determine if it's a 2-1 or a skunk. Therefor, my good and dear friend,.... DIBS!!!

No need to apologize. I might be wrong but I'm pretty sure all games are supposed to be finished. No worries. I'm sure those whose words are wise will tell us for sure and see which of us has dibs officially. :D And if you get dibs, best o' luck!

Maybe the rule does need to be clarified. Suggested revision:

14. No matches can be reported until all games are completed.
(period, full stop, no ambiguity. The current "best 2 out of 3 games" clause just muddies the waters and makes people think they can report a match when they have 2 out of 3._
