Challenge him to a series of trips or quads games, demand sunny and then you have an interesting challenge.

3) You did achieve a rank om Major, but you didn't keep it very long, how about trying to keep it for a few weeks before you say you were a Major. Anyone can achieve the rank, but holding it is the key.

1. It is I running my mouth? Obviously you fail to click on links, it is jefjef's apparent need to comment on his perception of my abilities in unrelated threads which caused this callout. My standard is very simple and very logical: Don't fucking comment on my abilities unless you're willing to face me in a series. If jefjef can refrain from trolling me on the forums in threads which have nothing to do with him then we can get along great.

2. The c1c had Aus from the beginning of round 1. I did not have a Euro bonus until round 4.

3. Zzzzzzzz the rank came up because jefjef implied that as a corporal I didn't know what I was talking about, so if he wants to play the rank game I'll inform him that my rank was something. Not that rank equates to skill in the least.

4. LOL are you fucking kidding? Vodean is a little kid, who yelled for mods because I said I hated him (I said this because he was spamming live chat with stupid shit), then called me psychotic and told me to ignore him, then chimed in every 2 minutes or so insulting me. If there's a chat command to ignore that dumbass please enlighten me.

5. Excuse the f*ck out of me, do I pop into random threads insulting people? Nah bra, my self esteem isn't tied to that. Jefjef thought he would get in a free shot, unprovoked, and I'm just letting him know that if he wants to f*ck with me, then let's go on the battlefield. If that's somehow childish, fine, per #1 above if he is willing to shut the f*ck up about me then I'm content to leave him alone.

Why would he accept such a ridiculous challenge? What does the best of seven, 1vs1's mean as far as skill mate? It means nothing accept luck no? He loses one game and wins the other 6, he'd prolly still lose points overall. Not worth it on two fronts; points or skill. Set up team games, perhaps he may just accept, then again, maybe not. I know I wouldn't accept a meaningless challenge. Rank up mate; that also may change things. Seeing as tho you're this good, that shouldn't be a problem.

In my experience there are people who complain about luck and people who understand that risk is inherent in the game we play.

I would have no problem congratulating jefjef if he were victorious, and concede to him that his statement about me not knowing what I was talking about in that other thread due to my rank as being accurate. This whole thread started because jefjef doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut in situations which do not concern him.

QoH beat me 4-3 in a best of 7, and I was happy to congratulate him, though the bitching in the thread about "luck" irritated me. To be honest, one reason I left this site for so long and focused exclusively on chess is because of that "luck" bullshit and my extreme boredom about hearing about it over and over and over. It's just an excuse.

It goes without saying, of course, that if your clan was by my side in trips or quads on any map with any settings against any opponents we would be victorious.

As has been said your best bet is to form a trips team, create some games and then see if he will play. I don't think you can deny that there is more stratey involved in trips compared to 1vs1, therefore it is a better challenge.

Look at it in this way: if you challenged me to 7 1vs1 games (for whatever reason) I would refuse and I doubt a soul would be surprised. However, if you challenged me to some trips sunny games on maps I like and I balked then I suspect some would maybe think me frit.

You may disagree on this but the consensus is that 1vs1 in general is too luck-based. So to make an attractive challenge it will have to be trips.

I notice you keep avoiding this point. Do you not know how to play trips (no shame in that) or do you lack the people to play with (again no shame in that either)? I am sure you would have your challenge if you made these games team based. So why not?

NoS, maybee we should challenge Dibbun to a few Speed Freestyle games...

BUT what happened to challenging just to challenge... this guy has beef with babies momma and he just wants to challenge to get this heat off his breasts. I seen a challenge just for the sake of challenging in lynch vs jd.. it was a fun read and fun challenge for both... I am sure a more negative reason for challenging would make for a better read and challenge... but it doesn't have to be about who's best does it? Cant we just challenge just to challenge?
