What's the highest you've ever gotten on the Scoreboard?

Also that nice streak of yours where you entered into five or six double Canadian games against me and Eye where you managed to end up with newbie deadbeats in all of them also didn't really help to float that boat I guess. Must say that we (believe it or not!) actually felt bad for you. It was really ridiculous seeing player after player going deadbeat on you.

I have never been higher than i am now, with 2778 points. I have had the first place before but not so many points.

by **Scorba** on Wed Jul 05, 2006 6:45 am

I'm pretty sure that's a site record, Belzbub. Congratulations.

Yeah, but Highborn is posting faster than you make points, so pretty soon he will outpost your high score.....

Congrats on the score, especially seeing as no one has found fault, dishonor or cheating in your play. :wink:

Indeed, you've raised the bar Belzbub...

by **sully800** on Wed Jul 05, 2006 3:22 pm

Well after a sudden streak of dumb losses I improved a bit to 90th with 1515

Edit: 1515 on my 15th game. I can't wait to play #40!

by **sully800** on Wed Jul 05, 2006 3:28 pm

With Belzbub approaching 3000...do people still think obtaining General is impossible with the current system?

I think it might be possible....it would just take some extremely good and consistent play over a long time....and then I nice string of luck to finish a long winning streak

Of course we know the higher you get the harder it gets and since the 3000+ range is uncharted territory...well, it might just not happen.

As a general you would average about 80 points for each loss....and only win 25 (in a 6 player game) so that's pretty rough.

by **AngryAnderson** on Wed Jul 05, 2006 4:00 pm

Easy to do by limiting your games to doubles / triples with other strong players (which I never do I may add), and trashing newbies galore.

Or hard to do if you take on allcomers, but achievable if you have skill (and of course an element of luck, especially with the 'kin dice generator! :evil:

).

I suppose in summary it depends on if you want to be judged a 'saddo' or a 'good player' by your peer group here at CC.

:twisted:

highly placed players can increase their yield by doubling up with a player with a low score.

I did it once with someone and was pleasantly suprised by our shared points :wink:

update: 110 with 1474 pts.

by **Belzbub** on Wed Jul 05, 2006 6:23 pm

2799 now, the 3000 limit are in reach, but 1 single loss is a big setback....

by **Mr.Catfish** on Thu Jul 06, 2006 8:06 pm

Christ and i was proud when i made 1184. GOOD JOB!

by **reverend_kyle** on Thu Jul 06, 2006 8:32 pm

I got up a little above 1000 after I won my first game.. then I lost a whole bunch... Its hard adjusting to having the armies placed for you....

by **minihaymanz** on Fri Jul 07, 2006 12:03 am

I've got like 1150...and I'm really happy.
almost 3000...wow. thats impressive. has anyone ever gotten that high or no?

by **sully800** on Fri Jul 07, 2006 5:55 pm

I don't believe so...it looks like he hit a high water mark at 2799 though...at least that's the highest I saw.

by **sully800** on Sat Jul 08, 2006 9:20 am

1556 for 75th place....but I'm about to lose and go back down again.

I was extremely close to winning this game twice (one man left from the guy I was about to take out :shock:
