Conqueror Herpes is Better than YOU

[King_Herpes]

lot of negative stuff flying around... farming has been going on in cc since day 1, why not just let the chap have his moment in the sun? hes not krusher is he?

besides, we have thota hitsquads on the job, his reign is shortening by the waterloo turn

True, a formidable team and clan. But rest easy my pets, It will not halt my momentum to 6k and beyond. You will all be taking frequent cotton swabs and pap smears for quite some time to come. My "reign" has only just begun.

[The Neon Peon]

Did we ever find out why we go through periods with no conqueror and just field marshals?

[porkenbeans]

What a dweeb you are. You admit that you are talking out of the side of your neck and then throw in some stupid emoticon. You fail brainiac.

What are you talking about ? I have not admitted anything of the sort.

when you get called out then change the subject thats add meting it

Am I missing something. Called out ?

allow me to repeat my self
you play freemium low ranks on hard maps
you play like the king only you are major and king is the king of CC
the title is apt

Then allow me to correct you. I do not play freemium low ranks. I do not play anything like the king. 3/4 of my games are a wide variety of games, players, and options. I do have 1 map that I have been trying to learn better than any one else. Prob. Chig. has now become almost 1/4 of my games played. I like it because it is fairly complicated and you have to be able to think about numerous things at once. I play no cards to take out as much luck as I can. I start, open to the public games. Then I play whoever steps up. Hoping to get the highest rank players. Dreading the noobs. Learning to be the best at a single map is an honorable way to work you way up. If I were to make it to Conquer by doing so, I would not object to a tag that said "porkenbeans, King of Chigago"
I would even maybe, congratulate the king herp, if they were to put a tag saying "king herp King of the cooks".

[clapper011]

there is indeed allot of negativity in here. Stop trolling people. It is a thread for congratulating someone, whether you like or dislike that person, even if you don't like his method of getting there, congratulate him and move on, or don't , but still move on.

Agreed. King Herpes is a top player, has made it to Conqueror (which is more than practically anyone else on this site will get even close to) and deserves his applause.



Whether he is better than every other player on CC is a bit of a moot point, however he IS the Conqueror, he is on top of the scoreboard and it is up to those who think they are better at making points to take the title away from him.

[Queen_Gonorrhea]

Regardless whether you agree with tactics, strategies, etc.. King_Herpes has worked hard to achieve this rewarding status. I can attest to the time and dedication he has expended on this site for the past year. Pay your respects or bite your tongue... I am proud of you King <33 and I'll always be your # 1 fan =]

[King_Herpes]

Thanks Mr. C! A good man pays respect when respect is due. It means something coming from you who I know is a great team player. And who is that sexy baggle in the throne? I'd like to have 3 minutes alone with that...

Well I played like an absolute arse in that one game we had together (blaming hangovers, naturally) but assuming you were being genuine I'll just nod my head, doff my cap a touch and carry on my merry way....

[flabio]

Good show Herp. You deserve the title. Right on!!!

Just leave flame wars down there and know that I am capable of being genuine. I meant every word and the proof lies within your games played. Until next time

Well, he was caught cheating, by tricking players into joining freestyle team games. So, I suppose you could make a good analogy. "Talentless and a cheat" could describe krusher or KingOfHisHand. In the end, I'm sure he'll get tired of not playing games like the others before him and dump his unearned points. Or lack will notice he's not getting as many customers and will ban the farmers.

Are you prepubescent boobs reading or are you too busy letting the steam out of your collars? Wake the hell up and realize that your being a nuisance in your vain attempts to justify your verbal frass. You're like the energizer idiots! You keep trolling and trolling and trolling...

[General Mojo]

Congrats Herpes....you made it just in time for our impending clash in Scott's tourney.....I apologize in advance for DRS knocking you off your conqueror throne, but we are a team of destiny....

We are undefeated in that tourny but Army of Achilles no longer plays CC and it's going to be hard to find someone to fill his shoes. So you may not be exaggerating.

HUHHHHH what did everyone else say my brain stopped working when I got to the Double Rainbow Society's signature

[clapper011]

I am not in any way for or against how KH got to where he is, I am simply stating that there are many other threads for discussion of point farming. and here are some of those threads:
viewtopic.php?f=6&t=52016&hilit=point+farming

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=68566&p=1680788&hilit=point+farming#p1680788

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=68146&hilit=point+farming

comments would be better valued if placed in those threads

thank you

Holy fuckin shit. (please disregard my swearing as an intro to excessive flaming)

But seriously. There is unequivocally an excessive amount of bullshit riddling this thread.

First, onto quite a few people in general. Max goes on in this thread explaining the difference between "specializing" and "farming." Yes, Herp clearly does farm the lower ranks, this much is obvious.
http://www.conquerclub.com/player.php?s ... =D&page=10
But come on now. He clearly doesn't only farm. He plays a lot on city mogul, which earned him a large portion of his points. Also, as he pointed out on the seventh page of this thread, that he plays a bunch of games with high-rankers (yes, porker, i'm gonna get to you in a second).

Why does CC set this trap against its new players. Why would they placate you vultures over their new customers. It seems rather counter productive from a business standpoint.

So...why do you care? You aren't a "new customer." You also aren't an admin. So farming shouldn't bother you at all, since you are not a n00b getting farmed. If you think it bothers the admin, then let them deal with it.

Now you beg for praise at your grand accomplishment.

Hmmm...If I remember correctly, I think max started this thread, not Herp. He just doesn't want to deal with people like you detracting from a thread that should be based solely on congratulating him on this amazing accomplishment. Start a new thread about your hatred of Herp's tactics, or type your boring arguments in an already existing one (even though I doubt many people will care).

You are the best cheater here. congratulations.

Well...here are the only actual ways of cheating that I can think of right now.
1) Have someone lose games to you on purpose.
2) Hi-jack someone else's account (or make a multi) and play games with them, making sure your true account wins.

Other than that, there are no other forms of cheating. A very highly-ranked player is allowed to play low-rankers/n00bs. If it wasn't allowed, then the admin would block it from happening. Herp plays a risk game with chosen settings/map against another player(s). That's how we all do it. That is legal. Playing someone on the opposite spectrum of the scoreboard is not cheating.

Your rank is 0.494 when I last looked. These figures do not lie. They are based on the average score of player you beat. QED the higher the relative rank, the higher score of player you take on.

Yep. Farming low ranks will make your relative rank lower. Great observation. Most of us have already made it clear that he does farm (although he does not only farm), so yeah, obviously his relative rank will be lower.But let's think about things for a second. He farms low-rankers. The more low-rankers he plays, the lower his relative rank. But to get that relative rank up (to colonels or w/e you said it was at), then he would have to play A LOT of higher-rankers to even it out. So........hmmm...I'm thinking he does a great job playing a bunch of people with high ranks, too.

My IQ is well over 140. I stopped playing for the most part in multi player games because I realized that I was being raped by multies that have taken over this site.

Hahaha! So how many games did you get "raped by multies"? 3? 4? You talk as if there are multies in nearly every multi-player game. Um..that's complete idiocy (making your claim of an IQ of "well over" 140 seem less believable). Speaking of your IQ, later you say it's 145?? So 5 measly points higher is "well over"? Hmm..

Before Herp's proof of playing high-rankers

...he only plays noobs that think FS is the common setting.

After Herp's proof of playing high-rankers

WTF does this prove, so you hand pick some games to show. That is only 50 games out of, ...How many ?

Well, my "genius" friend, it proves that he does not "only play n00bs" as this is your point. And what did you expect him to do!? Go through all 2322 games of his to show you how often he plays high-rankers?? Does he really need to take that much time to prove something to someone so inconsequential to him?

Hey porker!

Everything you said is utter garbage...you stupid moron.

Congratz, herp, very nice accomplishment. Set the standard for future wanna-be conquerors and raise your score so it'll never be touched by anyone ever again!

I'm pleased to see that some people's synapses still connect and work properly. What a perfect post by zsp. Obviously he was raised far away from any power plants, radio stations, and chemical factories which I can't say for all of you. Thanks for lining people up in their place. Also thank you clapper for helping the lost puppies in finding their separate ways home. I hope you know I was merely reiterating what you had said and I appreciate you. A fine moderator and a great player.

Irony obviously isn't a strong point with you is it, why am I not surprised, you're obvious lack of coherent logic is proof if it were needed of how far down the human food chain you really are.

Moving to the fundamental flaw in your statement above. His map rank is the lowest of any Conquerer, furthermore, his map rank is next to lowest of all the top 25 players listed on the scoreboard. This means one thing only. That he does not play senior ranked players as often as he might. This is not a reflection on whether "he does a great job playing a bunch of people with high ranks" or not, that is a seperate discussion. You, oddly, mention these words "But let's think about things for a second. He farms low-rankers. The more low-rankers he plays, the lower his relative rank. But to get that relative rank up (to colonels or w/e you said it was at), then he would have to play A LOT of higher-rankers to even it out." This statement actually completes the circle in that you proceed to, inadvertantly, denigrate the very person you champion. After all, there are many in the top players who do hold high map ranks, so by your arguement, they must take on A LOT (as you so charmingly put it) of high ranks and win!

To achieve a high rank (Conquerer even) and hold a decent map rank is an accurate reflection of a truly great player as this shows factual evidence that the player is able to beat all ranks, risk their high point value against low ranks and beat other good players time after time. There is no real substitute for this no matter how strong the argument is to the contrary.

I have played Herpes and in all honesty I do not understand why he seems to eschew series of games against high ranking players.

Lastly, this thread has been something of an interesting study. It matters not how vociferous you are in your defence of him, there have been many detractors from his achievement. This, in itself, shows that for all one can try to prove a point, that point is not really proved until one has shown a certain attitude of mind and spirit.

[BaldAdonis]

I have played Herpes and in all honesty I do not understand why he seems to eschew series of games against high ranking players.

He'd lose. A lot. Search his games with Majors+. He gave a nice small sample of choice games he won, and I suspect that those 40 games are all of them (out of a couple hundred team games).

But to get that relative rank up (to colonels or w/e you said it was at), then he would have to play A LOT of higher-rankers to even it out. So........hmmm...I'm thinking he does a great job playing a bunch of people with high ranks, too.

This is untrue. The relative rank is a running (arithmetic) average, so it takes very few high scores to balance a lot of low scores. The fact that his is so low (below 0.5) means that he not only plays few high ranks, he loses disproportionately often against them.

[Fruitcake]

churchill once said something , but i forgot what it was

unsurprisingly.
