<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Thank You. I hope my goal if fulfilled while playing K.O.T.H. That is to become a better SEIV player. Best way to do that is play with the big boys. Right? Also because I have a few other friends want to play in the near furture and I want to crush them like the little magots they are http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?
 

Now this is the right attitude for a KOTH player and possible King to have.
I wish you all the luck in making your way up the slippy hill, unless we meet that is. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?
 

I'm going to resign from my KotH game today, having waited 150+ hours for narf to upload his turn 2 (not turn 200, turn two!)

Asmala, next KotH game I'm in, I'll want a written comittment from the other player before I accept any challenge. (Oh, and a 24 hour 'enforced' turn limit.)

So, far I'm really not impressed with my first KotH game. (I would have prefered to be stuck behind 3 massive black holes than play against someone who can't find the 5 mins to make a turn every 48hrs.)

Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

P.S. sorry for the grim mood, but my patience has run out.

Edit: Oh, by the way, the 'Conquest Star Trek Mod' Game I'm currently in is running along smoothly. (and there are still 4 or 5 players still left in the game.) And on top of that, we often get several turns per day.

Edit #2: Narf has won this KotH game by using a time honored military strategy.. "Delay and Deomralize" (usually this tactic is used in seige warfare, but it obviously works in KotH games too.)

Goodbye KotH, hello private PBW games.

Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Bad Narf, no donut.

But try not to let one rat ruin the, uh, recipe. I think most KOTH games move on at a fair clip.

Give it another chance!

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Careful spoon, Narf is a Mouse, not a rat. (and a cartoon mouse too, so he follows different rules than real people.)

I hand Narf a nice cool 'Cheeze-Flavored' soda pop, and let him know there are no hard feelings.

Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?
 

Ekkk, yes David, don't let that spoil you. Most games go far faster then that. I understand your frustration though. At the very least it seems he could have done turn 2 at the time he uploaded turn 1. It processed immedietly since you had already uploaded your turn. I always try to encourage people to do that, at least in the early part of the game. With two players doing that you can actually get two turns in per day with only one visit to the site per day. Or if you can only make it every other day you can still effectivly get a turn per day in by doing that.

Re: Are you tough enough to be the "King of the Hill"?
 

Most do. For example my current one started on the first of this month and is on turn 33.

OTOH, one of them I played went on for several months, mostly because I was too permitting with my opponent.
