Awesome, 4.7 is the starting point, I do love a challenge!betiko wrote:you can't just rate me like that you need to play me. ok, i kind of imagine you have just rate abused me in our games when I've been so nice! <3
let me go put some 1s on uncle bogan.
Actually, the request to the community is a competition between me and bogan, who can get the fastest ratings drop. Bogan is probably too nice in game chats, and starts with a handicap, he's 4,8 vs my sweet 4,7. huh!!!!


But I note, that you gave betko 5 stars for fair playBoganGod wrote:A journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step. Hang in there betiko we will get you there in a month.

That may not be my most recent rating of tigger tot. Of course this could be a case of me asking for the community to act collectively to massage betiko's ego. If I rated betiko 1stars it would just be a nice but empty gesture. He will be more touched and grateful if the community at large, not just his friends help in this quest.TeeGee wrote:But I note, that you gave betko 5 stars for fair playBoganGod wrote:A journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step.

He is a big pussy, but hopefully he will grow a pair to help himself reach such an important personal milestone.Artimis wrote:Good luck trying to find him in public games, the only I'll get to play him is if we're in the same tournament I he gets invited to a private game I'm invited to also.

It is pretty funny. I love how at least a quarter of "cases" in C&A are about ratings "abuse". Why have a system that is open to abuse? FYI what we are all trying to do for betiko is not ratings abuse, is a well meaning and thought out plan to help him reach a personal milestone.jdw35 wrote:The fact that people actually care about ratings is hilarious

Thank you ma'am for your contribution. May I suggest you send betiko an invite to a poly game whilst he still has a +4.5 rating. I figure he will get his wish and drop below 3stars by the beginning of feb. I wish that my e-feelings were that invested in CC that I could get a warm fuzzy from good ratings. I often wonder what life would be like if I was a nice person. The only enjoyment I get out of ratings is replying with harsh words to "interesting" ratings left for me by jealous haters.queen victorious wrote:my general dislike for and confusion with forum posts notwithstanding, i feel the need to make a comment here about ratings. i like ratings. sometimes when one has low self-esteem it gives one a warm and fuzzy ego boost to see a whole page of 5s. it's particularly nice when one isn't very good at much else...like map strategy and little things like that. and...i would rather play with 4.8s and above than with 4.5s and below. for sure! a suggestion: i would like to have a place added on the ratings page where the rater could add a bit of clarifying commentary (say like 100 characters or so) if necessary to explain a rating given in more detail.
thank you uncle B for giving my opinion the importance it deserves. a 5.0, i'd say. cheers
