Yay. So now, freestyle is whoever joins last, gets to take their turn first for the entire game. What a huge update!
Next up, we're making the color Red, Red'r! Oh Golly Gee, that's a big one! Go CC!

I didn't realize that all freestyle games were 1v1.

Yea,well now it's pretty much pointless to play 1v1 freestyle or team freestyle.

I didn't realize you were still around to post off-topic conversations in threads.

And it affects team games too, but I guess that doesn't count now, does it? Go elsewhere troll, no one likes you.

so now if you start a freestyle 1 on 1 and it takes a while to start, your most likely gonna leave and then whoever joins will go first and your most likely fucked... so why would anyone start a casual freestyle 1 on 1 now?

This will ruin freestyle & basically turn it into sequential. Now, just like sequential, the advantage will truly go to the player that goes first. Don't say I didn't tell you so.

Freestyle 1v1 is now fucking stoopid!

it F's up doodle assassin speed game, the double turn was as really important, when you play doodle assassin speed games you expect the double turn, and you use it just like everyone else. at least give us a option on whether or not we want to use it.

How was Bones' post off-topic? You stated that all freestyle games would be a certain way, when in fact it only affects 1v1 (and most team games) as Bones was pointing out. Please leave your flaming at the door.

The reasons for this change have been posted repeatedly, and yes it works better in multiplayer games than in 1v1. Just the same, if your opponent plays first you still have a chance to start while they are playing the next turn and end before them, thereby switching the tables. I understand this is not very likely in a casual game but it is very possible in speed 1v1's.

As stated earlier, the existence of this double turn mechanism was only ever a loophole. I would suggest going to Alstergren's thread for real double turn allowed games and maybe you all can develop a clear enough idea with enough support that double turns will be brought back in a transparent way.

If You are ANTI-double turn

aka: anti-freestyle

Please Post Here What Your Win Percentage Is On Freestyle Since They "fixed" Freestyle For You Guys And Made It "fair"

And Though I'm Not Quite The Demonfork I'll Play 5 Against Any Non-DT "freestyle player" And We'll See How This Update Has Made It Even For You...

And If Your Argument Is That It Prevents Me From PWNing Noobs Then How About Posting A Suggestion On What Ranks Are Allowed To Play New Recruits Instead Of Ruining A Game Format That The Better CC Players Enjoy Playing Against Each Other...

and ps: the reason we like playing freestyle is because it takes out the luck factor of a random turn order... but i guess you idiots will take any advantage you can get :evil:

You are still very welcome to play freestyle without the loophole.

Its an improvement, because now if you are quick enough to end your turn first, you dont have to worry about missing a turn because of a double turn.

It really only changes games for those who use the double turns, but it does help people like me, who simply never bother with them. It also makes it far more likely that someone will play the freestyle game quicker, because there is no need to wait the full 24 hours to make the turn.

It hardly means it will be real time, but it makes the risk of real time less, especially if you can play fast. On some maps, a double turn is the whole game. Now its a little more balanced, with the slight advantage to those who join second, if the person who made the game isnt watching.

It also eliminates the massive advantage over new players, who have no idea what a double turn is, no idea how to make one, and no idea what happened on the game usually, and this of course was the reason it was eliminated.

It wasnt eliminated for the regulars who know how to counter a double turn...it was eliminated to protect the new players, that were being gobbled up, not ever having any idea what happened, and how they lost the games.

The playing field has somewhat been leveled for them, and even the most vocal voices for double turns, knows this is the true case, and is just ignoring that one little fact out of convenience.

Well said. I may start playing freestyle now.

Team games are not ruined... LMAO.... Really that comment holds no water at all... When sjnap was playing casual freestyle team games he won 110 of 111 with 0 double turns. Tell me how team games are effected? Get a better strategy and double turns are a moot point. Yes even speed team freestyle also... Stop crying suck it up and move on.

For all you who say 1 vs 1 casual freestyle is ruined... Not true... We all know casual freestyle games fill really fast when 1 vs 1... If you set up 1 or 2... Just wait around till they fill and play quick. Not like you will be waiting long. Suck it up cupcake! In speed games just hit the B Key and start right away like normal. Or when they start per the new rules. Learn to live... :roll:

I know how to do it, but I think it is very cheap tactic, and yes I agree it is good fix. Thanks Lack!

+49 with a 39% win rate...which i think is great cause most would be 8 man esc games...
and im loving the no double turns...
i dont actually think i have ever used double turns to play anyway...
well not intentionally..maybe in the foray of the last few secs to get a card and being too slow but starting strait away

was that not always the way starting a casual freestyle..if you werent around u couldnt go first...
tbh i will take the first turn over a double turn every day of the week
1v1 comes down to the drop and the first turn in 9/10 games

let's play 10 freestyle games... i'll let you make your move first in every one of em...

see if you can get 9/10...

that statement is proof positive that you do not understand the strategy of freestyle...

If I played you in 10 1 vs 1 casual freestyle games and I went first in all I would pwn you... At least 8 of 10 would be mine... 2 would go dice and be yours.

Next dumb statement.. and yes I play freestyle casual 1 vs 1's

Edited to add in a speed game no way I am moving right when the match starts... I am not a moron
