You versus karelpietertje: best of 5! [abandoned]

by **EagleofGreenErth** on Thu May 21, 2009 1:53 pm

I'd like to play you, karelpieterje... not guaranteeing I'll win even 1 game... but I'd love to have a go...

Let's see.... Waterloo, Waterloo, Waterloo, WWII Europe, WWII Europe? (not specifically in that order though)

Do you take Sequential Challenges?

No
I consider (my skills on) sequential games (not enough to win more than) a coinflip.

you'll have a shot at some wins judging from previous games. I will add you to the challenge

wow there are currently 6 challenges active and only 1 finished yet.
This might be because I'm in my final exams too. I will be online more often again after that

let me think about this challenge little karelpieter.
Meanwhile, do you consider adding feudal war to this exquisite list?

the freestyle vs sequential is a discussion in itself. My humble opinion - sequential takes more luck.

okay then, I will let you think about it :lol:

Feudal war will not be added any time soon.
I will however switch Pearl Harbor with Forbidden City. just a little more practise on it and I'm ready

From what I heard and seen-- you were deathly afraid to play me in speed freestyle. Continue to woop on the inferior competition. GL--

I am indeed deathly afraid to play you in freestyle.
However what you might not have heard or seen is that I already accepted challenges from the best freestylers there are. I am challenging everybody on CC, and that includes you of course!

I look very much forward to a challenge with you Scott!
I still remember the only 1v1 between us ever. that was the first time I got an adrenalin rush out of a 1v1 game :lol:

Game 3503740
Of course a match like that could only be decided by dice, because speed and skill were (about) equal, and it did. I got luckier.

Shall I put you under "Current Challenges"?

I never got it........ you play well enough-- I can understand why you wouldn't want to play me in 8's or team but 1 vs 1, I was ranked super high back then. You're obviously faster than me which would gave you the edge. If I were you-- I would've jumped at the opportunity. I took a shot at you in here because I think it's gay to ignore players for their skill level. It doesn't matter to me now because I don't play speed anymore.

But we can setup something when I get back home. I'm away at my brother's and his spare pc was made back in 1902 I think. I've played one speed and the average time per terr's like 5-7seconds.

Best Freestylers? And being undone by Dc?! I don't think so. Add me to the list!

no offense to anyone because im sure all the good high ranked players are better than me at any type of game but i agree with Blitz about freestyle.

i seems to be all about internet connection and mouse clicking skill
correct me if im wrong

I don't think you're wrong--and "click-able" map script plays a big part in some of the success there

I'd bet that all the good high ranked players agree with you. It's the other high ranked players who would take offense.

This is a callout thread. Either take him on giving the listing settings or stop complaining. Many people enjoy these settings, just as others like sequential. C'est la Vie

Ok, I'll email Brucewar for permission from now on to make a post.

by **EagleofGreenErth** on Sun May 31, 2009 12:54 pm

If both players have clickable maps and a great connection.... it comes down to strategy. And karelpietertje is a great strategist. So STFU if you are coming in here just to bash this idea. People know what they are getting into when they join.

by **gannable** on Sun May 31, 2009 4:52 pm

EaglesofGreenEarth,

Listen big man I began my post by saying "i mean no offense" and then i ended it by saying "correct me if im wrong". So, there's no need for you flex your big internet muscles. But, no I'm not going to STFU, not even for you big man.

and ive played against the original poster and i know he's a very good player. I wasn't questioning his ability

Speed only makes a difference if two opponents are approximately equal in skill. For instance, either one of you could play Karel and be faster and still lose. Fact.
