TNC (31) vs. RH (14) of 45 - Final 2/10

[Lindax]

Can we all please relax. I do not want to have to lock this thread again.

You may have to, you haven't handled this very well so far.

Your fellow CD posts a picture in an attempt to be funny and lighten the mood. Next thing you know, he's being ridiculed for being a CD. In your posts after that you never bring up the obvious disrespect for your fellow CDs.

I challenge reptile to become a CD and put in his time voluntarily to help this department.

I challenge you, Bruce, to stand up for your volunteers.

Last but not least, I don't think chemefreak should have reacted like he did, but I can very well understand where he's coming from.

Here are my thoughts: Treasure the volunteers that try to make CC a better place. Don't ridicule them for petty reasons. As a department head, show leadership.

Lx

PS: This whole issue is just another clear sign that CC is rapidly moving downhill. And I'm just one of many getting disappointed day after day with how things are handled. I'd quote danryan, but I can't find his eloquently worded statement.

Unbelievable! I'm curious though. Reptile, you say you don't want a forfeit? so after reading the entire thread, am I to understand that this entire thing was meant to show us all what a "cheap" player thecrown is because he took his turns too quickly. There was no rule agreed to prior to the games and yet you feel that you have the right to push your preferences onto other players? Who died and made you king? thecrown mentioned that he had 100+ games going, thats quite a load. so when he takes his turns he goes in, does what is expected of him and goes on to the next. Whats wrong with that? If you feel that strongly about the snap then do something about and make it mandatory, then you have a right to bitch! but until that happens you don't have a leg to stand on. All you succeeded in doing here is make yourself look like a sore loser that needed an excuse and a whipping boy.

I don't know thecrown and I don't know you and honestly, this is your war and I wouldn't be wasting my time right now, but what got me is your comments to Nick. He breaks his back for the legion and CC putting in more hours for this site than you could imagine. I don't see how he does it and still puts in his 9:00 to 5:00 in the real world... Our wars are handled so professionally that we never have these problems unless we screw it up. If we do, he bitches! but he never complains. Like Lindy said, he was trying to lighten things up and you turned on him and he didn't deserve it. I don't agree with the language he used but you were baiting him and he made the mistake of giving you exactly what you wanted. He's better than that, but a person can only take so much and the things you said were crude and rude to say the least, so don't act so innocent.

I'm done. I said what I wanted to say, but like bruce said... these are games! games are meant to be fun! You'll get more respect from being a gracious loser than you'll ever get from the all this. Think about that next time and you won't end up looking like such a fool!

chemefreak again proving himself uncaring about showing leadership and looking at both sides before jumping in with filth.

When an opponent changes his story a few times, reptile has the right to complain about it, and should be able to do so without so-called "moderators" adding to the abuse.

[flexmaster33]

Unlocked. Remember all, this is a game. Lets keep are cool and try not to bait and flame each other.

agreed...sounds like a conflict that has spiraled way out of control. Let's not get into personal attacks and such.

Ill add my cents on this issue not that anyone really cares tho

I completely understand how reptile feels. Most respectable clan players here on CC will always make sure the other team gets a snap. From reading the thread I do not think reptile was out of line saying what he did. It comes down to sportsmanship in my opinion. I do understand a huge game load also but it is hard to see how someone can miss it in all the games. Usually when starting the game takes more time then any other move. You have to think and plan out what is the best to do to set you up for the game. At this time someone you would/should notice that there has only been a fem minutes off the clock and the other team hadnt posted "Snap Taken". I know this war didnt have an 12hr fog rule, but again most clan players I know will always give that courtesy. All this said I have never had an issue with either reptile or TheCrown just an unfortunate situation.

Gl rest of the way anyhow.

Cheme, i was going to pm this to you but it needs to be public i think, this is my peace offering to you. A song from my heart:

You bring tears to my eyes, and warmth to my heart,
i'll love you forever, with all of my soul,
mr cheme i love you with all of my being,

i live for no reason other than you,
where would i be if i didn't find you,

i know the dynamite was just a flirt from above,
the only explosions are explosions of love,
boom boom pow you had me at hello, (See photo below that i copied from my wall)
with this i sign off with sweet dreams of you!



No seriously, lets put this all behind us....please?????

[reptile]

He accepted!!!!! see below:



It makes me feel a little uncomfortable, but at least it is better than it was before.

[Clanlord Carl]

I've always assumed the 12hr rule wasa basic courtesey.
Just decide whether or not you want it at the start of the match.
No need for flames people.....are we grownups?

[billclinton13]

Wow that is crazy, im glad you guys made up. But that would be strange. Boom goes the dynamite!!!!!! I guess

[harvmax]

I would just like to add that I have played many games with Reptile and find him to be a great player who is very fair in all that he does. He will even help explain maps and how they work if you need help.
Reptile is a true class act on here. If I had a partner as versed in the maps as he is we would be a formidable team.
People need to to stop unloading on him especially if you do not know him or his play style.

As for the constant arguments throughout the Conquer Club realm pertaining to fog rules. It is very simple, if you don't like fog or aren't sure what your opponent might do then don't play them. I personally am a fan of Fog and really do not care if I or my opponent get a "snap" prior to moving. If you are familiar with the map and pay attention, you can usually figure out what your opponent is doing. I am tired of the constant "fog" complaining. Again if it bothers you then do not play and please do not ask for time to snap. The reason of fog is to make the game more challenging and to conceal your movements as best as possible---it is the element of surprise that makes it interesting.

I agree here. At MM we always play with the courtesy. Even in public games, we try to give the other clan the respect they deserve. However, that's not always the case. Some players just don't play like that. Each of us has our own methods, our own strategies, ect. That's why we are here to play competitively, to see who's is better. Sometimes we just get lost in the moment instead of enjoying it. Hope you guys come to an agreement here. reptile is probably my favorite Nebraskan, and I've never had any problems with Crown. Clinton got us out of the deficit, even if he is a Democrat!

[Crazyirishman]

The 12 hour rule is one that normally one should just let happen, unless it it on a map like feudal or AOR. I follow it just to give my teammates a chance to get into chat and waiting a little longer to take the first turn so the other team can click a couple buttons isnt that much of an inconvienence. And if there was something in the chat about it then at least acknowledging what another player asks as courtesy would be the best course of action

as far as one of chemefreaks post, I think that was out of line for somebody who is in a leadership position and should have been presented differently, or if presented at all not in the public forum.

for thecrown it may not fall under cheap tactics just bad sportmanship, as Ive seen other tactics that would me mroe questionable that what happened in this challenge

[chemefreak]

Wow reptile, you must have spent a lot of time on that...just sitting here hoping you aren't a dude...

reptiles post crossed the line. it was a flame and a bait that clearly violated site rules. i probably should have reported it and moved on, but that is just not how i roll (none of the posts have been reported, btw). it was a measured response and was complete in-line with the accusations contained in the prior post. i really enjoyed writing it too.

[reptile]

Cheme, there are a lot more things i want to say that you are so completely off on, but...

I guess i was mainly more upset that i thought it was more your job to DIFFUSE a situation rather than egg it on as you did. But i realize that i did maybe bait you a little bit. But now i am trying to bring light to the situation and it would be great if you could accept it as that. However you are right, my post did cross the line and i never said otherwise. I was just surprised you would do the same as a CD. I hope that you got as much enjoyment out of writing it as i do reading it. I have read it like 5 times and get a little chuckle each time. But seriously, calm down buddy and lets move on.... right?

Just keep in mind that the 3rd post on the second page started all this. A little extreme i think, i wasnt trying to bait anyone in any way with that post, merely providing feedback and thought it was ok to do so. I aplogize for baiting you with what i said on the third page post #1 about you being a CD, i still think you should control yourself a little more ALSO but that comment about your title was uncalled for. i was just trying to pay you back for that ridiculous post.

Yes i did cheme, yes i did. I too enjoyed every minute of it. I am hoping you got a little chuckle out of it at least....? I think what crazy is saying is that i am not a clan leader anymore and not a mediator of any sort, while you are is all.
