I remember a guy conceeding against me once.
He kept dodging chaos dwarf blockers and bull centaurs - then fail and hurt themselves.
He left and didn't say anything.
I laughed.
Tee hee hee |

when i'm bored because the game is broken (it happens), i concede instead of wasting time and getting upset. i'm not saying it is a good thing to do, just that i sometimes can't help NOT wanting to continue playing a pointless, miss-all game ^^ |

I've conceded twice, each time with High Elves....everybody knows about their huge price, so when after 5 or 6 bloks in turn 2 u suffer 3 dead(ur best players with 20+ SPP), a Niggling and a BH, please tell me what to do with a so cursed team ?????? Of course, apo failed, not fun if it works......
So simply concede if u play HE .............NEVER TELL ME ABOUT THIS DAMNED TEAM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Heh -- KingKhaan beat my pants off last game, and I was thinking about conceding at one point, but I figured swallowing the pain and pressing on would be a better lesson in humility and inspire me to pick up my game...
...but I get tempted sometimes, when it's the last 3 turns of the game and you're down by 2 or 3 goals, they have the ball and they're just holding off the final goal so they can hammer you for cas points. Where's the fun in being a punching bag and possibly watching your better players die???
Er, not that KingK did that, don't get me wrong. But that's when I'm tempted. |

I had a game the other day where I ended up with no players left in the game about the 3rd turn of the second half. I didn't know you could concede . . . But I played a recovery game against another weakened team, replaced 2 of 3 nigglers (who had no SSPs anyway) came out with the MVPs from those two games, one nig, and two assistant coaches. Why concede? |

I have never conceeded, and will never do.
It´s allmost like a honor thing for me.
No matter how much the game stinks, play through.
And sometimes U benefit from it.
FX. yesterday, when my 4 WE, were up against 11 Orcs with the ball in their possession at the second half turn 3 I think, but still somehow, managed to get a draw. |

I have never conceeded a match. And I think I never will.
If you're gonna conceed when things get bed....why bother even playing.
Wouldn't it be dull if everything always went your way?
Wouldn't you rather try as hard as you can to screw things up for the other player? Against all adversity?
I would.
Hell, I once held a team to a nil-nil draw (and damn near scored in the process) when for the last 4 turns I had 2 players. He has never got over the shame. (because I have never let him!!)
Never say die.
EDIT: Found the match...0-0 Result |

The 2 times i retired i threw away the team: HE...i did it because i was really upset not to be able to have a HE team that don't suffer a death during 1st game, even vs not specially bashing team.....i won't do it with any other team.....have a nicely niggled DE team, but continue using it......and what u guys say about conceding when ur outnumbered, i didn't do it because of outnumber, but because it was really 3 dead (not BH, not SI) in 5 bloks during turn 2 !!!!! 1 was from a goblin, so imagine the shame for those blue-blood-noble HE !!!!! he would have suicide, anyway
Wanting revenge, i created my first undead team...stupid, clumsy, but as long as u don't lose ur mummies, u don't care of CS...and surprisely, it works better than thosa damned elves......
Moreover, I've realized that HE team is a bad one.....playing elves, think WE are quite better as they do have merits (7MV, a big guy, nice wardancers and possible oneturner) and flaws(7 AV and price).......i continue playing DE just because I like them...
So about conceding, that's why i said JUST CONCEDE WHEN U PLAY HE !!!!! they are a BAD team.....not counting the damnation that is on them....many players told me too

I have conceded twice. Once just recently because my new baby woke up. I hadn't even moved my players yet in turn one. Kinda sucks, but not my opponents fault. The other time was I let my cousin try a team on my account, and he dumped out. I contacted the person he was playing and conceded, then retired his team. Then I was told never let anyone on my account again, and the little b@$!@rd got his own account. But I fight till the end! (something I've learned from using flings and gobbos) |

I recently lost my Apo for a NI on my 41 SPP Human Catcher (of course he failed) in Turn 2 first half, and after a few more turns, a Guard Lineman died. Should i have conceeded ? Of course, but i didn't. Another 2 RIPs (a Lineman and a Thrower with 35 SPP and Strong Arm ) showed me how brave i am. Brave and incredibly stupid. |

Just to say that to my mind and from what I've heard from other players (not all for sure), elves tend to die quicker than any other races, even ones with less armor....just a curse that says that if u play elves, u'll be bashed |
