I've played 3 games with you now:

(1) A KOTH game. Somehow, I won it (and I know part of it was because you had a fleet order of "Don't Get Hurt" in a critical battle.

(2) A 2x2 challenge where you taught me some tricks and saved the day. Your ability to continue to colonize while facing large fleets amazes me!

(3) Our current game, another 2x2 challenge with full-tech (a type of game you admittedly revealed you didn't have much experience with). If we manage to win this game (crosses fingers), it will (again) be because of you.

You are a team player! I can't say that enough! You are great at communications. You gift planets, ships, and resources. We agree on plans. My ability? It seems that I am (only) an above average player who has the ability to spot other good players and then "use" them to help me get wins (after all, it was I who first touted Asmala when he was content to be a quiet player...the infamous "Challenge Game" where he, Lord Chane and I took on Geo, 1FSTCAT, and Rex and won).

I must confess to a bit of sadness, though. I look at your rating in the forum and it distresses me a bit. You only have one vote...from me. For a person to have only one vote for a forum rating who has displayed significant playing ability, good team play, a sense of humor, and helpfulness is surprising to me.

Well, I've probably embarrassed you enough...I'll let the thread go now with thanks for the fun I have had with you in our games. Thanks for the knowledge you have shared, and thanks for the jokes we have shared.

I agree. Another valuable member of our community.

He's also involved in our little Space Empires Galaxies RP game and has submitted some great roleplays.

Why, that was indeed quite an embarrassing thread to read. (And to reply to as well) *Mutters*

So,I will merely give you my thanks, for both the kind words and the games we played (above all, the two 2vs2 games, who were/are some of my favourite games to date), not to forget our various conversations behind the scenes.

Now if you will excuse me... *Sneaks back to his cave and resumes his lurking/stalking/spying*

No restrictions (except you can only rate a person once). Just click on the stars/rating line and do your bidding.

I recommend turning off forum Ratings... they really do not mean anything without some sort of comment attached...

And before you point out that this particular rating essentially has a comment, remember that 99.9% or more of the Ratings that have been given out have not had threads, PMs, or anything associated with them.
