That's a good position, Mr. C. Ya wouldn't want anyone at CC thinking less of ya, now would ya?

Until you have felt the thrill of topping a small and irrelevent country scoreboard on CC you don't know what achievement is , BBS. I've made the same point to my significant other but, inexplicably in ...

"Hey, no.2 in China!" she would greet me on a daily basis :lol:

the equivalent of owning a hundreder at conkers =D>

Very entertaining. Your girlfriend sounds like a laugh and I love your reference to an oft-forgotten playground pastime.

Oh, and I'm #1 in China, theoretically ;)

My CC Widow ...

The saddest thing for me about the CC\Woman paradigm is when one achieves something of value here (win a series, win a clan war, achieve a new rank etc) and the only person about to share it with is the long-suffering girlfriend. One is somehow compelled to tell them of the success.. however the ...

While I don't play a great many games here (active usually less than 10) I must admit that I log into CC more than 10 times a day and probably spend at least two hours on this site per day..sometimes much more than that. It is quite possible for me to spend hours talking about games on the phone, or ...

It's not quite an addiction. It's an inability to motivate oneself to do more important things in the first hour of the morning.

Oh that's so very true. For the last 6 years I have spent the first hour of the day on CC, no matter if I have work, or a wedding (!), or a plane to catch. In fact I ...

Josko.ri has just been cleared.

Anyone that wants to can now use the same tactics that josko used to break a high score that stood for over 3 years.

The flood gates are now open.

I predict at least 25 new Conquerors within the next 6 months and high scores that will break 10,000.

Technically ...

Most people think wrong when making odds about attacking or defending,
no matter how ood you roll or how good your odds are, this is first and foremost a strategy game,
you need to evalute what does your attack or defence bring you in short and long term,
what attacks are must and wich aren't, no ...

Nice..

"why nobody noticed for example that Conqueror opened himself for any challenge that he has received and therefore CC community had unique chance and maybe first time in history that Conqueror was accepting more or less any kind of challenges"

Not true in the least mate

Codeblue1018 is the ...

If you look at 13900095 as one example you can see that Josko is playing his turns almost 24 hours after the previous turn in a game that he's forecast to lose [a tactic that The Crown adopted to excess]. What's interesting though is that his faithful sidekick and opponent Moonchild is also taking ...

I know what you mean...those games that really stay even into the mid. game are a joy, those games that stay even into the end game are really very rare indeed.

However, I think one's view on this does depend on what you are a playing for. If you are determined to climb the scoreboard then quick ...

He is quite the phenomenon. Probably the worthiest conqueror we've ever had.

Great player indeed; not near the worthiest conqueror by a long shot.

And who may that be...?

I'm sure josko is in my top 3...quite possibly number one on what he is achieving right now.

You've been around since ...

I'd probably renew but no more speed games or autotournaments, and I'd keep my game count way down.

At some point when we were facing each other to collect those stamps around christmas, i went to check your active games to see what was taking you so long.. And you had like 100 active, no wonder ...

I totally support playing this game for money here on CC. 5 dollars is a reasonable amount per game..

changy, me thinks for most players with a little experience fog is a basic setting. Serves to punish those that can't be arsed taking snaps, or taking the time to work out what can be known about behind the fog based on available evidence.
No bull, I think he is on top without milking the point ...

Is he currently increasing his score playing basic maps and settings? If he is then he is basically doing something we have never seen before. Sequential, chained, no spoils, sunny at +5500...no farming etc. It shouldn't be possible. When you consider how many active games he is playing..

I don't ...

I'll give you a 'Mr C Tip' (for this is something I actually know about rather than the many topics I just pontificate wildy upon):

The trick is not to make deals in standard no cards\flat games but rather to create a system of 'understandings'. For example, the OP might well write something like ...

I could name several players capable of playing to a high rank that choose not to, or have done before and have since chosen to play more for fun.

Oh, there are many, many players like that.

I can remember when achieving\holding the major rank was the universal standard of a good player. I think ...

interesting question...
I'm not sure.. I've been around long enough to have seen most come and go... I think overall the talent level is generally lower, though there are a lot of really good players here still...
though the median skill level? I'd say it's slightly lower though there are a lot ...

So chang; basically if you could only face 2500 to 3000 players on your settings, would you expect to only go up? Team games make it easy to go up because there is less luck involved; and you very rarely lose to a bunch of noobs like you do in 1v1. You are saying yourself that with the settings you ...

I have been fastposted by Don, and I couldn't agree more with everything he says after reading it. Too bad you don't say the same thing on french politic :D



Let me rephrase my earlier point. It's not just high ranks that want unranked games, it's anyone who cares too much about their rank and ...

FF's abuse was not to benefit his own account.
how is it not a benefit to any of our accounts to play as many games as we like without risking any points? i would say that is a HUGE benefit to an account. it isn't as egregious as say what Blitzaholic did, but it is an abuse. have you not seen all ...

He played a bunch of doodle speeders, as well as battle royales for Doc Dice.
So bad, from what I have seen last game where they were together was played in November, so he did not have direct personal benefit from playing for Doc Dice.

Pity he did that, he is extraordinary skilled player and ...

I was looking at my old collection of Conquer Club files (I used to be the webmaster here) and I found a bunch of stuff that ought to be shared with people that might also appreciate them. Today's nugget is the original World Map. I'll try to remember to post another nugget every now and then ...
