Hopalong. Go hop along! :lol:

And Yukfoo, yes, I saw his post. But, the initial number of 17,000 that everyone got excited about, included everyone on the scoreboard, even people who signed up and left. When I look at the full scoreboard right now, I see 12,000. Sure, it still contains people who signed up and left.

Anyway, the only reason I responded to you in the first place is because you cited "bad dice" as the reason for people leaving. That's a silly assumption. Many of them leave because starting a game isn't instantaneous. And... just recently, I saw someone being a bit of a butthead in a training game. Those games are 0 points and meant to ease someone in, not raise the more established player's e-peen.

Hey shannon Apple

Welcome back

If you ever see someone being a douche in a guide game can you please give me the game number so we can look into potentially blocking them from joining guide games in future.

Thanks

Thanks TeeGee!

I will do. I didn't report him because he was being a butthead rather than breaking any rules. He was teasing the player a little instead of giving him some guidance on how to win. Definitely cared more about winning the game himself, which shouldn't matter in a guide game.

Does everyone have access to guide games now? The player doing that was fairly new himself.

I think that way it works is that a 24 hour Guide Games goes only to Guides, usually the Guides online.

3 minute SPEED Guide Games goes out to everyone reading Global Chat to fill quickly and often those who play are NOT In the Guide Program (are not official Guides). I think that is how those work, based on what I have observed in that past several months.

I hope that helps.

new recruit. signed up like a week ago. testing out game modes on classic. just won my first game!

i've always liked risk but never actively played. 24 hour turns will probably keep me around post-covid for a little while at least.

It is definately the dice scaring people away. Perhaps to a lesser extent people are scared away because they can't play speed games. And then to a lesser extent, llama scares them away. But 95% of it is shitty dice that scares new and old users away.

When I am gone, it is because of the shitty dice.

thanks! trying to figure out the ideal number of active games.

4 seems too few and X seems like too many.

I find 40 is the magic number. Whenever my game load gets above 40 I can't sustain the attention needed and I play like shit. Which is, I suppose, the main reason I play like shit most of the time.

Just add some games gradually and see what you can handle. I agree with Duk. Once I go over a certain number of games, I start to lose concentration and can make bad plays. I think 40 is a cut off point for a lot of people.

Consider trying out polymorphic with 2 slots on classic now that you have premium. It allows you to play doubles, but you control both colours of your team. It's a little nicer than playing 1v1, in my opinion.

agreed - find your sweet spot gradually. 12 to 14 is mine (mostly team games). 23+ leads to me overdosing on CC since i like to tell my teammates what to do in our games

Posted: **Thu May 28, 2020 9:23 am**

I play with A/A+ games, B games and C games. A/A+ games I try as hard as I can in (usually reserved for clan games), B games I give decent effort in, and C games are volume games towards medals that I put little effort into and hope to win enough of with a shotgun approach. That helps me play more games and achieve more (but limits my score).

I believe economists refer to it as a "correction".

The great depression was a mild correction compared to this plummet
