Default Re: Qwerty - MA team game. Running

Wow man, take it easy. MB wasn't calling you a liar. He was just explaining why in his opinion there should not be a rollback. He may not have been utmost gentle about this but I don't think he had any intention to call you a liar or insult you.

I thought more on the subject and it occurred to me that in my experience what happens when players stale is, well, nothing, they stale, suck it up and cont. I mean can you imagine what a nightmare it would be if every time a player stales he would ask for a rollback?- And I can assure you, every player has every reason in the world to believe his turn is crucial. I know I do and I hate to stale, but if it happened b/c I couldn't get the turn on time and didn't ask for extension, well I accept it with a bitter taste and go on with the game.

Think about it. You stale under the most convenient circumstances a player can have. Then you ask for a rollback and threaten to go AI if not complied. Is that a request or an ultimatum?- Are you fed up with the game and just using this as an excuse to bail out?

I don't want you to go AI. I don't. But its you who came up with this notion anyway. For what its worth I ask you to please reconsider. Its just one turn, what's the big deal?- You know what, if you do want to go AI then do so for the "right" reason (that you're bored with the game or don't have time or whatever) but not by slamming the door like this.
