+2000 Games (Majors and above)

no spoil, standard game, 7 players [Game]11626545 [/Game]

[CaptainMoo]

Please note: The games I listed are intended for 2000+ players (CaptainMoo - you should be fine) ... but I had a corporal join in .. (no offense to him) ... and I dropped the game. I'm guessing the Standard Password is now a "Universal Password" and everyone knows it (???) no matter what rank or forum you are using.

So, in fairness to those who only want to play with similar ranking, I'll drop some of the games not over 2/3's filled ... and recommend others doing it to ... just in case of such happening again. Again, no offense to Corporals or any other "lower ranks" (I've been there too) ... it's just the way this forum is setup (was my understanding).

Added details to each game ... not all are terminators as originally stated.

Ok .... here's a few Terminator games ..... (and some Standard Games too)



. All are Esc'ing/Chained, and NO FOG

Standard Password (starting with the "p")

I only ever join when i am 2000+ though i have to admit sometimes its close so by the time the game fills i may have slipped under again, been on both sides of 2000 for a while, up n down, hope to make it more solid, i appreciate you probably realise that from your comment above but just wanted to clarify because i have felt a bit bad the last couple of days seeing games start when i didnt have my swords anymore but i will only ever join when i have the requirements

I can relate to Captain Moo's sentiments. I DO NOT Join if I am below the 2000+ limit. CaptainMoo is always welcome to play (again, when you rise back up to 2000+) ... I tend to base it on what their rank was at the time of joining. In fact, right now, in the above games I listed, there are 2 others who are now Captain's, dropping down after joining. My dilemma is this .... should I send them a PM and ask them to "please" "Drop the Games they are in" ... or should I expect them to just drop from the games?

It's sometimes hard to say "Only 2000+ or above" can only join, when at the time of them joining they were (really) at 2000+ points, but drop below that right before the game filled up/started. (sigh) It has happened to me as well. I am kind of surprised at how quickly the games filled up ... normally, the Majors forum is kind of short sited when it comes to the variety of games. Meaning: It's always the same few people posting the same map, game, etc.... again and again.

My apologies to all who joined and that some dropped below the 2000 asked for. I could not help that. (But when a Corporal joins in using the "Standard Password" ... then it's time to start using different PW's ... one can always screen better at that point, but it also might keep the variety of good players from joining because it isn't as easy to join, or it's first come/first serve and one misses the opportunities to play others they might not have played before (happens to me all the time).

I do not know what to do about those that drop below 2000+ after joining into a game. There is not a trap door that I can Drop that player out of a game. And if I ask them (via PM) to drop a game, and they do not .... or even if they do, I tend to be the "bad guy." Now, if they drop from Major to Lieutenant ... I'd make some noise abouyt that ... because THAT would have been a lot of points.

This might not be the place for such a discussion, but I'm open for thoughts and suggestions on how to keep it with "all Majors, or above" without having to ask someone to drop a game, or een the possibility of such having ........

HA! I guess I could say .... only 2150+ are able to join? 2200?

Everytime I see a Colonel jump into a Majors game I always say that when I get up to that rank (one day!) .... like them, I'm not going to mind if I play a Major. Points do make a difference in ones ranking. For some, that means nothing. But for others, it's a goal, and an accomplishment (especially if one did it on their own, AND ... without the benefit of playing team games with higher ranked, seasoned team mates, where one can adv. fairly steadily).

Thanks for joining ... all who've joined, and there are still a very limited spots left. PM for the password, or invite! Good Luck ALL!!!

I am on a really bad streak. I was at 2300 points a week ago. I'm now just barely a captain. Sorry for joining games and then falling below the requirements.

Based on the conversation in this thread, I've dropped all waiting games of which I no longer qualify. I'll join again when I'm worthy.

I will point out that my thoughts on the purpose of the point minimum is to ensure you have players that play like a major, which I still do. I really don't suck at this game, I promise.

I know it is only temporary for you. I'm positive you'll be back ... you are a good player. (there were "a few" who PM'ed me and mentioned that some of the people were below the 2000+ limit, which I understand). It isn't personal. (I've been there too ... having somehow survived a few bad dice moments/streaks and then bounce-back to Major)

hang in there!

[72o]

you are a good player.

Thanks. Can you tell the CC gods, so they can give me the good dice again?

[Tommy Tucker]

Please could someone send me the standard password to these games? Been away for a while and forgotten it. Thanks a lot!

Please can you send me the standard password? Cheers!

That is one reason yes.

But I think one of the main reasons is that majors lose MORE points when playing with someone at a lower rank, than if they were playing someone at +2000.

Got few std, esc. fog games up, pm me for password

[CaptainMoo]

in response to the recent chat on this, firstly i have just got my swords back, just about lol, i really am hovering above then under the mark atm, but like i said earlier i only ever join when ive got the rating to do so.

I posted a suggestion a while back to the mods about making a game option for this and got totally slated for it. I understand they dont want to exclude new players, dont want "exclusive" games etc but that really dosent wash with me or it seems the majority of consistent players.

I for one am just about making the 2000 grade and it really pisses me off when "lesser" players join my games, then from in-experience, make stupid play and throw the game to another lesser rank.

is it just me but allowing a option to only allow a minimum rank / score to join in the game settings would not be excluding lower ranks but would introduce a far better system....has there not been a lot of chat about farming noobs and would this not help against that?

by having a game setting such as this it would allow similar ranks to play similar ranks.....higher ranks could still take a chance if they wanted and felt that confident. AND - THE IMPORTANT BIT - players could still choose, so any rank can make games within there own brackets, or open and higher players can always join lower......i really cant see how this would be as the admins say creating exclusivity?

if i was a 400 rank id make a game 400+

if i was a 2400 rank id make games 2400+

id have a better game against 400's if i was 400 and the same at 2400 or w/e. i think this would remove the bad beat and frustration, encourage players of a similar level to play each other, eliminate farming a bit, and make a better CC experience

the only "real" objection i have got from CC is it discorages new players but surely this could only help them as it introduces an almost tiered game.....if i wanna play against players at 2000 for example i gotta work through and win some games at 1800 first.....or whatever level

finaly, this would only be an option, if u dont care about rank n score etc ofc the option for open could be left

since so many CC users clearly want this, hence this discussion i cant see why the OPTION shouldnt be introduced as its already being used more or less and if its made a game option would only serve to improve the game
