What a minute

Post by Prankcall »

Sorry but I'm dropping from this..I notified my partner not sure if he will find a replacement but i feel its a bit unfair for any1 that cant even maintain the rank of Lt to be in this..Now I'm in 3 sets of games where not even one team is the required ranks..Call me whatever u like but i think u should have set a point min on this such as 2250..I mean i have no problems with any1 in this league but its not an ultimate captains league that is for sure

Are you saying that you dont want to play because the players are not good enough, or that you are worried they will lose too many points if you lose to them?

False advertisemnt

Post by Prankcall »

Let's not go into point loss/win issue's...I can easily win lost points as i'm sure all of you can..What I am saying is it seems i am playing more sgt's than captain's...**edited to say I'm almost positive more than half these players are better than me at team game's..I dont play team games except for the occasional Clan or with a friend pickup game..So like i said I am not trying to say i am better..I know this isn't true

I only asked because the reason seemed contradictory, but obviously, if its not what you expected, you have every right to drop out. Feel bad for your partner, but im sure hed prefer someone committed to it anyways

I will say this, id feel guilty, playing against you at your score, if me and my partner only had 4500 points or so... it would be nice to have even points or no points for some tourneys...

you are completely wrong, Prankcall. it is not false advertisement. When people signed up they were captains. the rank goes up and down.

If you are afraid of losing to the lower ranked people then it is fine. I know that there are some people who would rather play for rank then for fun. But don't call it false advertisement.

I wish you to get over of the "rank illness" soon, and experience more of CC, and actually have fun and not sleepless nights because of the lost game caused by bad dice. I used to have the "rank illness" before, good thing i got over it and can actually have fun now.

I am ok with my partner dropping out. I understand ranks go up and down, and i am not familiar with Team play either, but I would rather have someone committed. I believe Prank is doing the right thing. I have honestly lost nearly 700 pts in the past week and half, (mainly because i have played tournaments, and have lost to lower ranks.) I don't care much about the points or the rank, I just want to have fun, and I am new to the tourny thing and I like it. Although I cant lie I do miss my 700 pts. haha.

It seems like the passwords have changed. I tried to enter 3a (which was the round and group like the others) and I was shot down...

I am playing Lts ranks too in a few games, just stick it out prank, i am

these tourneys take a lot of work to do and you need to follow thru prank

finish the tourney is my suggestion, those LT's that are 1950 is not much diff from 2200, a few more points so finish it out, and all were 2000 plus when this started. ty for considering this because a lot of time and effort goes into these, thanks again.
