Rated or unrated games

on a lot of internet game sites such as pogo there is the option to make games unrated

i think this would be a great option on CC so that players who just want to play for the enjoyment can play and those who care about score/rank can play in rated games

then the more serious players don't get ...

i used to play almost all doubles games with kewlboy4399 cause i liked the dynamic of having to cooperate with another person- it really added another dimension to the strategy that you don't have to think about with singles games

now that there are 2 player games i do a good number of those and ...

there are no quadruples games- i think you mean 4 player games- the double and triples refers to team games

if you don't want to see pages of games you don't want to join use the game finder

if you don't like the scoring system don't play

either way don't complain

Statistics of Dice Throw

Found this which states that the more dice you have the probability of getting higher numbers increases due to to the combinations available so how do cc stats level out on all dice????

this talks about the total of the die... in CC it is not the total number on the ...

once again- the only true reason to worry about the die is if you have a poor strategy

those who have good strategies know not to spread terribly thin and to keep some numbers in their favor

those with poor strategies lose games and points and then complain about the die

and also playing risk IRL involves more factors that affect the outcome of the roll

such factors include:

- what numbers are facing up on the die when they are rolled
- how hard the die are rolled
- what objects the die may bounce off of
- the texture of the surface on which the die are ...

the only reason to worry that the dice are rigged is cause you keep losing cause your strategy sucks

i have the dice go against me too- but i'm not worried about it cause i win more games than i lose (approximately 65% win record)

so get over it and move on- pick games and settings that suit ...

It is a good strategy, but its still very, very cheap.
I agree with this.

I don't like freestyle much either, having experimented with it for the most part so far. The 'wait till the end' tactic is really lame and there is no counter to it apart from doing the same thing yourself.

freestlye tactics= cheap?

okay,

so i'm in game 581859 it is a freestyle 2 player game.

he takes africa on his first turn and is calling me cheap for not taking my turn while he is obviously still around

my question is: Is this cheap or just survival tactics/ good tactics?
