SwAg Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 1 hour ago, Tk3 said: I’m going to be honest, I feel the same way.. I feel like this needs a .... variety of players.. and that includes a swag I joined, but would consider backing out if the full roster is a team that I am not comfortable with.. it doesn’t hurt to reserve your spot Yeah, I hope that is understandable to people. I don't want to unequivocally commit to a multi-month series of games tournament. I'll tentatively agree to play, but would prefer a verification opportunity before a start date. I don't know. With a 9-man game series, I feel as though you almost have to be selective, different game pathways for different players (e.g., newer players, experienced players, competent players (SHADE IS REAL)), or utilize some system of elimination. I mean, for both rating and quality of the game, I think it would be pretty lacking if you had 4 heavy hitters, 3 new players, and 2 decent-or-above players.

So, you can take it as a compliment that you have not annoyed me so much that I want you excluded, or an insult that I don't think you're as unique of a player as someone like Malfatron or Touch. I hope it's the former since I only think like 5 players are unique. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like the newer players will learn and play up to the experienced people What I’m worried about is having a full roster of people from the exact same era and being the 1 player always on the outs regardless of the actual game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWil23 Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 This has a very real “If you can’t spot the sucker at the table, you’re the sucker” ROUNDERS feel to it. I suck but am intrigued. I feel like I’m the type of player that pisses everyone else in the game off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone has a learning curve Honestly, as long as you go into every game willing to be open and objective you will be fine you should play and get a bunch of quick games under your belt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tk3 Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) That being said, I don’t love the concept of being in a 9 player game where I feel like a third or even a half dislike me or are otherwise dispositioned to distrust me..... over and over again Oh well, I’ll take it as a challenge Edited April 19, 2019 by Tk3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwAg Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 You're starting to sound like Ragnarok with all this crying. I deal with character assassination and made-up meta every game. Quit being a fish, *****. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nazgul Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 I know I am not on @SwAg's list of unique inferiors - but if Swag is in I am in as this is where I can finally use my thesaurus against him. I'll even step my game down a bit to let everyone else have a little bit of fun. Also @Malfatron has to be here because I am among his favorite mafia players!
