Since i know it's a big team duel,and it's possible to get help from allies,maybe you can start your SC god as a Son of the sea,take w6s4d3 or w6s6,o2s3c3g1m1 scale with dom6.Start magic research alteration 3 and enchantment 1,ask your allies give eye shield,fire brand,dragon helm,chainmail of displacement,boots of the messenger,ring of regeneration,amulet of resilience,equip your SC god and script battle order as

ersonal luck,body ethereal,quicken self,breath of winter,attack close.It's much better than the Kraken SC.It's cost your team 35 N gems and 10 A gems and 15 other gems,but if you lost,your team lost the contral of the sea,it's worth it.
Now you have an unbeatable SC,i have tested it three times,first two i let 2 bishop fish with 50 Kotds to attack the SC,and then i let 3 bishop fish with 100 kotds attack,three times the SC takes easy win.only the final time he get weakened.So if you really unlucky and got your SC take a nasty wound like feeble mind at early start,you lost the game.Besides that,your SC can lead you to middle-late game.(btw,eye shield works on high mr kotds,and all three battle take place on you own dominions.and i tested it with f9s9 bless,with fr 100,it's ok to beat the kotds.)

bgqsl, would it bother you terribly to stop using the letter 'u' as a word?

Aaagh Aezeal, stop it! I'm with Agrajag

Its nice to see I have support

But since you asked a question, I will answer it:
1) It's annoying.
2) It's more difficult to understand.
3) It's discouraging, if you don't even put the milliseconds it takes to write two extra characters to improve readability and reduce annoyance, it makes me feel like not putting any effort in answering your questions or responding to your post.
4) It's confusing, especially the way he wrote things down originally (like sometimes using "u" instead of "a").
5) It's better for him* to get used to write things properly, as it can be useful later in life (for example, would you hire something that had "u" instead of "you" in their resume? Or god forbid "4" instead of "for"?)
*-I'm writing "him" and not "you" because I know you are being sarcastic

With all that said, I'd like to thank bgqsl for editing his post.

only 6 is a valid argument to me.. and me being the selfish being I am don't care much about what is usefull for him later in life

I just hoped to read an interesting new reply to this thread I as following.. and then I saw
"bgqsl, would it bother you terribly to stop using the letter 'u' as a word?"

Language just changes over time. There was probably some point in history where some abbott was annoyed that the young scribes were writing "here" instead of "hither". Also, if you were going to design a new language from scratch, would you really use words like "through" when "thru" is perfectly sufficient? There are lots of holdovers from earlier times. The only problem is when you misspell words with one letter.

Besides, you're on the internet. You should expect a certain level of short-hand. Any proper grammar and spelling you read is a delightful boon. Not that I don't prefer proper and complete sentences, but I don't necessarily expect them.

Not when the forum comes equipped with an ignore user button

And besides, that argument is also valid for "you're on the internet, you should expect people to post goatse* all over the place", and I'm sure none of us would support or allow that.

Well, the difference in negligible, it takes a very short time to type the few extra characters, and its not like you use "through" as every other word.
And you are more than welcome to switch to Hebrew, we've got almost no wasted characters

(Then again, if you don't know a word in Hebrew, good luck with trying to figure out how to read it without nikkud {which is the only kind of word you can expect outside of children's books})

Aezeal · #49 December 18th, 2007, 06:30 AM

there are no wasted hebrew characters.. lol I'll not go there because it's probably politically incorrect but I could make some funny remarks about that which some wouldn't appreciate

... only I wonder if agrajag was never drunk ..

anyway basicly I agree with sector24.. only I didn't want to say it that seriously

Agrajag, would it bother 'u' terribly to stop using 'Its' instead of 'It's'?

Agrajag, would it bother 'u' terribly to stop polluting this valuable tactics thread with your language preference discussion?

Oh, sorry. 'Its' annoying. (Why I don't have that feeling

); 'Its' difficult to understand (Everyone can understand why you can not

); 'Its' discouraging (Thank goodness 'u' are not a soldier or your squad will rout like rabbits...); 'Its' confusing(where? how? I'm confused...by nobody but Agrajag); Its better for him* to get used to write things properly(My god is that your business

).
