incidentally, lego, hope you don't get caught in the crossfire. as i stated before(but Dr Dbag here must have missed it as he was parsing for clues as to my mental state) i was mistaken when i said you were allied. so for the record(and the second time) i have no prob with you.

in honor of you, Dr Earwax, i have decided to roll play the rest of my remaining games as if i have gone insane! you can even check them if you don't beleive me. since this game became no fun, i am going to use your assertion that i am not ok mentally to make the other games a blast!

incidentally, i should thank you Dr. SelfAgrandizement. you did teach me a bit about being more cautious in diplomacy. also, i met some nice people that had some funny stories.

[parone]

wasn't one dude Dr. was more than one.

History suggests you'd do well to heed your own advice

What!!! Why didn't anyone fecking call me for this? I'm only an email away you know, and I would have been there within seconds for a good party. You selfish b'statds know how much I like a good rant, and so you all purposely kept me out of the loop. Geez how could you treat me like this, call yourself my friends do you. I'm hurt guys, I'm hurt. Emotionally so.

[parone]

also, i like that you say calahan was 'touched emotionally' by your actions. man, that is some great stuff. what would you charge me to come sit on your couch and get an assesment?

i actually know a guy who is a psychiatrist who is one of the coolest people i know. other than the fact that he is very empathetic an helpful you'd never know he is a mental health professional.

on the other hand i used to go to these dinner parties with my ex(yes, Dr EarAss, i am divorced. more ammo for you) and there was a woman there that was a licensed psychologist. different animal, that girl. she had a tendency to psychoanalyze everyone and thought we were all very impressed. we weren't of course. since i don't know you really, i guess i won't hazard a guess as to which one of these people you resemble.

well, ok, i already guessed. but i'm sorry. i shouldn't have. i just couldn't help it!

anywhooo, let's all put this ugly thing to bed. although i must admit, i've gotten some great laughs the last 48 hours or so from a lot of different directions(one guy was in south east asia i think, that's a long way!)

and to all those that went on the anti EarAxe rampage on the IRC, i have to say, that was fun. but you guys were a little brutal, even for me.

Yes this topic was (briefly) discussed a year ago, but then, like now, you have not provided any evidence to suggest that any of the statements I make against you are false. Nothing has changed during that time, and the charges against you still stand. That of being a bailer who was, and likely still is, only interested in playing in games with newbs to obtain easy victories, and someone who abandons positions once any chance of the overall win has gone. The passage of time has had no effect on these charges, as they have not gone away just because a year has elapsed since they were last mentioned.

I on the other hand have provide evidence that your statements are false (re: your statement claiming I had no participation in any of the games you bailed on), and I have provided several links to backup what I believe to be my correct interpretations of you as a player based on your actions. I am confident I can provide further evidence if needed with save game files (with llamabeasts permission and cooperation) that show that the timing of your abandonments was anything but random. As at the time you were abandoning some positions, you were also simultaneously continuing to play in several others, specifically in those games in which you still maintained winning chances, meaning you were selectively bailing on games you could no longer win. This MO is easy to spot as several players with regular bailing habits have also adopted the same MO in the past.

But perhaps we will see who is right as your future choice of games to participate in will also have bearing on the value of the assessment several people, not just myself, hold of you as a player. If you continue to only play in newb dominated games, or small hand picked invitationals with only players you've defeated on several previous occasions, then that will simply serve to reinforce all the negative opinions that are held of you as a player. And while you may well consider those opinions to be wrong, your own opinion of yourself means nothing compared to all the contrary evidence available that weighs against you. So if you dislike the opinion of you that many senior players hold then it is only your future actions that will count towards you at this point, and not your continual reliance on mere words and excuses.

Oh and maybe showing even the slightest hint of remorse for the many problems you caused with your past abandonment of several games would help, and perhaps even going so far as to offer an apology for your actions. As you haven't even had the common decency to apologise to the many players whose games you ruined by walking out on them, perhaps because I would guess that the opinion you hold of yourself is one of being whiter than white, and so you feel no cause to apologise for anything. But then being prompted to apologise only ever leads to a fake apology, as genuine apologies only occur when it is unprompted, and you have had plenty of time to do so of your own free will, but haven't.

[parone]

wasn't part of the 'year ago stuff' as i am a newbie. that said, calahan's unsolicited opinion seems to parallel your current behavior.

and the fact that you troll newbie games in search of ez wins is undeniable(even though you are trying to deny it)

therefor, i must conclude that you are exactly who you appear to be(and who you have been painted as in this thread)

you know, there is always the option of trying to be less of a jerk. instead of trying to pretend you aren't a jerk. saying that not to be mean, but because it IS a legit option. and while i don't have a psych degree, i know that you'd probably like yourself better if you acted a little better.

finishing on a positive note here(mom always says to try to say something nice in these situations): i really did think the name trigger hippie was cool.
