So, last week I decided I was going to join a game or two on Circus Maximus as I've never really played it and am (remotely) interested in learning. Long story short, joined two of Klobbers games, came back a few hours later, and both were gone!
Pretty obvious at this point he just dropped the games...
Sitting around now, figured I'd give it another shot. Clicked 'join game' and got this message:
"you cannot join game 5038932 because you are KLOBBER's foe"
There seriously should be a penalty on this website for foeing anyone over Corporal who joins your games so you're not forced to play against someone who may hold their own and actually present a challenge.

That's because you have to shower him with compliments after wards and say obnoxious things during the game. Eg:
Game 3173373Also joining at the bottom would have been a better idea.

There- now it can no longer be construed as a flame, but a simple narrative of the truth.

I would love to have expressed my lack of hygiene in a similar fashion, but I was foed long before I even got the opportunity to play!

Anyway, I just started playing the Circus Maximus game myself. I rather like it. Once I can get rid of the dead beaters (I seem to have 2 at the moment) I will gladly play you.

Most certainly

I've been reading up on strategy, as I never really understood the map. Not so much I didn't understand how it worked, but rather I didn't understand how someone can consistently win on it as it seemed to be based so much in luck.
I think I may be onto something, however.

So, in essence, you had an experience which smelt of manure?
In that case, it sounds like you're dealing with a farmer.
PS. The guy is a well known fan of the products of rectum-milliners, save yourself some time and just ignore him forever.

Wow, KLOBBER'S rank has dropped like a rock!
I was told that being forum-banned meant you lost your foe list...I guess that's not the case?

He just foed me recently.
Perhaps he will lose it again and I can use the 'Games Filter' script to find ones with only 1 or 2 slots left to join in on him

more likely, it is a result of the new farming code, which does not allow new recruits to join big games like that. People are actually showing up to them now, so his win rate is probably lower... its also possible that it is due to some other reason, such as other games, or different choices, or that he simply isnt putting as much effort in. Everyone views and plays for points differently.

Well regardless of you and everyone else telling me that there was no racial motivation behind KLOBBER putting me on his foe list, I still vociferously demand there was.

I truly believe he is an equal opportunity foe lister. Join his game once is the only requirement or restriction.

Does anyone know exactly what Klobber's standards are? I mean, I was a sarge and he foed me out of his games. Is it only privates and lower? Is it only newer players?

It was somewhere in the forums (I have no idea where or who). I actually thought it was you, to be honest. <laughing>

I was (get this...) a COOK when he foed me for joining two of his games (which were, of course, summarily dropped by him). However, I had a lot of experience under my belt, an 16% win rate (or so) at the time which was based on large-player-games, and a very high relative map-rank...apparently, that was enough. And I think Spock intimidates him. <laughing>

KLOBBER was the KING of the ANTI-FLAME-FLAMERS!
He would FLAME anyone, but was against the FLAME WAR forum.
So, now he's banned for what?

i'm guessing for being charmless yet unctuous, objectionable yet engaging and pious whilst censurable!
.. he was a tough chap to warm to.

Here's one I made earlier......
*cue Blue Peter music*Subject: Limit games for foe list abusers and jerks.Artimis wrote:The Neon Peon experimented with the foe list and tried to foe 19,000 active players on the scoreboard, he made it to 10,000 before his foe list packed up, read about it here:
[Poll] Points Inflation - Guess how muchRelevant Section wrote:In case any of you are wondering, I tried to foe every one of those 19000 people, but apparently foe list maxes out at a little under 10000. This max out is not on purpose, since all what happens is a timeout whenever you try to add anyone else to the menu. Maybe I need to get a better internet provider.
Moral of the story: always keep records of everything you ever do in life. Never know when they will become useful 4 months later.
If 10,000 players were the hard limit and not just the point at which it times out, then it would still be sufficient to foe every active player above the rank of Corporal. Makes you think doesn't it?
