Re: Announcing the 2005 PBW Open Tournament
I've tried explaining this to him several times. Either he doesn't understand, or he doesn't care.

Re: Announcing the 2005 PBW Open Tournament
That last comment sounded a little more harsh then I intended. I also neglected to mention a third possibility, it could be that he simply doesn't have a lot of time to play, so once he does his turn he has to go do other stuff.

Another possibility is the floppy disk relay to get from SE4 at home to the internet at work. (Or some variation on the theme)

Re: Announcing the 2005 PBW Open Tournament
Ah, could be the floppy relay, yes. I remember I used to have to do that way back in Classic beta, when I lost internet access at home for a few weeks, and had to use school connection. That definitely sucked...

Re: Announcing the 2005 PBW Open Tournament
The first of the round two games is underway. The last round 1 game is still moving, but still slowly. They are up to turn 46. Woo hoo. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Announcing the 2005 PBW Open Tournament
I'm still calm... but I've been playing more than 2 months, preparing the best I can, planning surprising strategy... and after boring 46 turns and exploring almost all galaxy haven't even met my opponent. What he's doing hiding in home system?

Re: Announcing the 2005 PBW Open Tournament
It's a brilliant judo-like strategy. Boring you to tears and causing you to long for the end of the game so accutely that when you finally make contact with him you will instantly throw down your weapons and surrender. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Announcing the 2005 PBW Open Tournament
I'm ready whenever Thermodyne is ready. Let's see, the map is already set, so what kind of game do we want, Thermodyne? Full tech? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Possibly the most boring strategy I've ever heard. Sure it sounds funny, but actually carrying out would be buttock clenchingly dull.
Unless you can set it up and go do something else while it happens, which would defeat almost the entire point of doing it. The tiny point remaining being the 'win' which would be achingly empty and shamefully hollow, like the depths of the soul of someone who has so little self worth they'd go to such extremes for such a tenuous achievement. |
