BigMac just suck it up and look for another opponet. Quit wasting our time in these studid posts. The guys doesn't want to play you for what ever reason fine. Maybe he thinks you smell oh well just give it up. |

I've been trying to cherrypick and boy did it all go horribly wrong. My CR dropped from 162 to 157 in juts a few days and in just a few games. Cherrypicking ruins your life. Or I just need to practise more....hmmm...those flings and my CD...hmmmm..... |

If you do not like the open format, then i suggest you try out the leagues in U that has a playing schedule. Then you have to play the opponent or forfeit the game (which may be penalized differently depending on league). I have tried R and F and experienced the same thing, something we all have. But i have stayed in U because thats where you can play real tournaments all year around.
Unfortunately there are very few good leagues in U going. Some Germans and the Swedish leagues as far as i know. Both require you speak the language so they are restricted in their own ways. But there might be a league out there for you or you can start one yourself. |

Come and join us in ladder BicMac. When you challenge a team there and its coach refuses to play, then the team is chastised with a drain of challenge points.

It is correct that Coach Rating is not an accurate indicator of how good a manager is. Even less so for the W/T/L statistics. As for myself, I have fun playing an ogre team. They are difficult to play but because of STR 5 and Mighty Blows, the people who agree to play against that team often have 15-20% higher team strength and as a consequence it is difficult for the ogres to win. I do get very challenging matches though.
However, such are the rules of an open division and necessary if you want a game you can play when you like. We are free to play in leagues in unranked instead, or try Faction or Ladder. If somebody in Ranked only wants to play elves or teams with much lower team strengths, no problem. |

You should all follow the example set by Riders of Jormungand. We have three rules:
* Never turn down a challenge!
* Never retire players!
* Never ever APO RIPs!
(Ok, we have actually retired a couple of players but only for fluff...) |

Easily done
J.W. Bush is responsible of not sending US troops and US support to N Orleans.
The other player is responsible of not sending his troops to support BigMac
Hence the other player is Bush.

Makes me think of the old skill merger game. (Pick two skills and add them or parts of them)
I'd say hypnotic legs is my favourite. The chicks go right past me though since I've got dirty claws and thick team mate. |

But bush did send his troops after getting flamed alot, so maybe BigMac could ask Removed to do this game now. And he might just send all his troops there.
Also, if you have a new amazon team, you are pretty stupid to accept a challenge from a dwarf coach, a game you have less then 11.38% chance of winning. |
