Enough is enough guys! Someone here is making good money for very bad programming codes on this site! Not only that but people who pay good money via Paypal get a feeling of violation. You guys in charge think it's a joke and i can not allow this crap to continue. Best to write Paypal about your concerns as an customer or try another risk game site like Right now the bottom line is what does PayPal think of the lack of interest CC has in it's customers.

This is absolutely a tremendous method of getting your concerns aired. Well done on a well-written, concise and detailed explanation.

I don't get the point of this thread if he isn't just here to advertise (then why would he pay 25 bucks and spend more than a few months here?). I mean, do you think we're gonna have some revelation after reading your post and realize we've been bamboozled? Are we unaware that this site is crap until your gracious self so proudly freed us from the brain-washing website known as Conquer Club?

I mean, don't get me wrong, this site is crap, but I don't care enough to go to another site which is probably worse.

Well no wonder he's pissed because that's about 40 bucks. I thought the going rate was 25.

$25. Sorry, I work with GBP. On that point, that's pretty sweet for the British. We only pay about £14-£15 for premium. :D

I played at SGN before I came here. It's a bad recommendation, I feel. The dice did seem better, but they also have:

-more expensive premium ($9.99 per month or $62.95 per year)
-inferior maps
-less game options
-fewer medals
-a less skilled group of players (98% of the people there have no concept of how to play escalating)
-a horrible map foundry process

The reason that I left was SGN was largely due to the fact that I actually took the time to make a map. It was horrible by CC standards, but it took me quite some time and effort. One of the requirements of the "beta" period was that the map be played at least 30 times in a 30 day period, or something along those lines in order to be published. As the map creator, I had access to the counter, so I knew how many games had been played on it. At the end of the beta period, it had been played something like 71 times, but was rejected because it didn't meet the 30 game minimum, which was clearly incorrect. So I got pissed, heard about this site, and came here.

Whatever your beef with CC is, having spent some time and money on both sites, I can honestly tell you that CC is a better way to spend your money.

It is embarrassing for me to say, I have tried RiskAttack.com.

It was SO hard to navigate, was confusing beyond belief, and I couldn't understand where anything was.

Plus, it was full of ads and spam, and there was no community from what I could tell.

Based on the fact that you're still allowed to post in the fora, I'm convinced you're giving him SOMETHING under the table...

:o Do not tempt GOD. [-X

I've tried a few games on Land Grab. Maps are far less quality than CC and not the best gameplay/settings options but the randomness was believable. CC is one small step away from having it all right!

I'd say at least six. Lord knows what AoG and lack like to do under there. I feel like the donuts aren't actually used for eating...

Explain, please.

Also, I like to play risk with my brother, cousin, bassist, limo driver and with my Aunt Beryle's Neighbor visiting from Boca Raton and a cardboard cutout of Chris Mullins, Golden State Warrior. We don't have to pay anything except for pizza delivery charges.
