Default A (rating) Challenge

Here is an idea for some fast and furious 1 on 1 games with a twist

3 planet start on medium size Tescofied (well spaced starting positions) Maps. 2 human players, 2 of the best TDM AI’s with high bonus in team mode. Last surviving human wins.

1: Would this work ?
2: Any takers ?

Whack the Primitive one for extra bonus

Well, I don't know about AI from messing up a rating...LOL. I played a game with Gryphin where some TDM AI were in the game and I got "distracted" a bunch! I mean, they were MEAN!

HOWEVER, I don't think your thread is a bad idea...it might be nice to have a thread where "challenges" or "invitations" for a Ratings one-on-one contest could be invited.

Having said that...(gulp)...I'd entertain a proposal for a one-on-one game with you (the reigning champion in the Ratings). I know you to be a brutal adversary. I remember you from my first KOTH game (where you spanked me and sent me home) and I think I will be better prepared for you in another game. After all, my best friend on the forum, Asmala, has taken me under his wing and given a lot of advice...which has made me a bit better.

So...???

I'd love to play you again Slynky, but let me see if I can get any takers for this game with AI's first.

I do love the KOTH format, but I would like to try for a little larger game without missing the speed of only beeing 2 players.

I'll just let the challenge stay here a little longer. Any takers
