Non-live "Live" gunboat game...
I am looking for a few players to play a non-live gunboat as if it were live. The honor system rules follow.

Hey, the "wait until they give up" strategy works. They used it on me once. After 7 hours of playing a live game, I needed to get my sleep. I think it was 8am when I went to bed hahaha.

Slyguy, if you can't even bother to dedicate enough time to a live game, don't waste ours you lazy fuck. Not only are you a shit player for having played 77 games with zero wins, but you have no concept of the six other players whose time you wasted while you played on an iPod and fingered yourself. Next time, don't even fucking bother.

When you start a live game, make sure you will be able to devote almost completely to the game. I would never consider playing a live game on a phone/iPod. Live games are computer only

sly, you ain't sly at all

Better off to resign than to keep six other people engaged for hours. I almost joined that game, too...

I hate to resign, obviously, this was only my second ever, my first being one of my first games on this site. Unfortunately, sometimes you just need to leave and stop humoring a lazy fucktard who can't be bothered to dedicate himself to the same live game that six other players can somehow handle without issue or delay.

This thread is so LOL! I mean yo all get upset cause one guy didn't resign and kept on playing (a good thing compared to you whiney quitters), wasn't 100% committed to the game but still managed to stay in it and frustrate the fuck out of you (a good thing by some of ours standards), and you bitch and moan about it longer than it took the game to play!

Draugnar, you don't play live games. So I am not sure how you can understand how frustrating it is
Draugnar (0 DX)
09 Oct 12 UTC
Fortress - Doesn't matter. One of the reasons I don't play live games is I don't have a life that allows me to dedicate 3 or 4 or 7 hours at a time to a single game and nothing else. Fact is, he had time to dedicate well enough to frustrate the fuck out of 2WL and that is an awesome sight to see!
2ndWhiteLine (2611 D(B))
09 Oct 12 UTC
Draug, two things. First, fuck off. Second, I'm certainly not the only one who got frustrated. He got Czech mad enough to start the whole thread as well as risk point deductions for posting about an ongoing game. Any player has the right to not ready up, its your own account to play with as you see fit, but when the player with the most completed games on the entire server complains about a breach of decorum, you might want to consider that your asinine and spiteful reproaches of our, in most players' opinions, justified complaints do not hold water.

It does matter because you don't understand how a live game works at all. Join a live game, and have a person save every time (in a gunboat) and then your criticisms might be valid

If only I had the time to prove otherwise to you, FD. But maybe we could play a non-live anon gunboat with 24 hour phases and see what happens. After all, anon gunboat is anon gunboat. It doesn't matter what the phase length is.

We could make it an honor system that once you log into the game, yo only have 5 minutes to submit your orders. Would have to be on the honor system, but I think this group is honorable.
Fortress Door (1837 D)
09 Oct 12 UTC
hmm.... I would be very much into that. I never considered you a gunboater type. I was mostly joking when I said that (in one day phases, you out-match me completely, but in a live game I would hold my ground).

the only condition would be is that I need pauses from the 21-23 and from the 28-30

and they are completely different, Draugnar. In live games, you have to think on the fly, and don't have hours to think through your moves
Fortress Door (1837 D)
09 Oct 12 UTC
ah, that I can agree to. I think you should start a new thread to advertise it, however
Live gunboats are both harder and easier. You tend to make more mistakes, but so do your opponents.
Draugnar (0 DX)
09 Oct 12 UTC
And that was why I said the honor system would require us to keep our time from initially looking at the results to submitting out orders at 5 minutes.

It seems as if we have a new wave of vocal and talented akrellinist thinkers, who certainly seem as willing as I to type on the matter, albeit from the other end--so, care to debate, say, 2-4 akrellinists vs. the same # of Krellinists, on a thread w/ a neutral moderator, we each give an opening statement in succession (say, 500-1000 words or less), one rebuttal per person, and then open it up for questions, side with the most +1s for their comments "wins?"
