Default Re: Victorious Nations/Hall of Honor

I usually look at game threads when people post wins because I like to check out endgame files when they are posted. Most games threads end with players voting and congratulating a winner. That is why your game thread seemed funny and prompted my joke about it being solitaire since you had a single post when you joined in Oct saying how your nation "seems really strong", then there was a single post by another player before the game seems to have ended in Nov with your unanswered post asking for the game to end and referencing someone with 18 stales etc. I didn't even think about you being a vet or whatever in a noob game. It was more a comment on the fact you joined and won in a total of 2 posts.

I did notice looking at the thread though that there were only 7 players, not 8 in that game. Well at the start. I don't know how many you actually had to defeat...

PS I don't really think its silly either though. As much as people may play it off like its not a big deal, I think it does matter. There are a lot of smart competitive people in MP and the HoF is one of the ways of demonstrating mastery of the game aka pwnage. You were quick to point out the 2.5 so I would guess it matters to you. I am writing this now so I guess I care about it a little bit too. As do probably most people who take the time to post their wins here.

Well, I wish someone else had a second opinion. I am ignoring the other poster's provocations at this point, since he's sorely biased - so if anyone else thinks it is that out of the norm, I'll just rescind the whole thing and go back to plotting current and future conquests

I will say, I did just check, and I noted that Zhao refrained from posting the win for Chlorolera, as it ended up being a bit of a Premature Ascension (should see a doctor, Admiral! ), but I've seen a couple other games posted here that didn't seem like much to be proud of, so I'm just unclear on what is actually considered as justified to be posted as a victory, and what is questionable. Even more confusing is that I am this big bad vet, and I don't know these things yet, even though I watch this thread like a soap opera.
