Bad day with dice- What should I do?

by **Godsav1** on Wed Jun 24, 2009 1:16 pm

Alright so today im having a horrible day with the dice. Does this normally at some point happen to every member? And if it happened to you did you cut down on games played or did you just keep playing?

If it's any consolation, I just attacked with 19 against a 3. I lost 18 and killed 1.

Right but did you keep playing games that day since the dice was being so mean? That way your rank doesn't go down that far. Like I have lost 4 straight games today because of the dice. So what I'm wondering is if I should just stop playing so many games today and see if tomorrow it gets better so that way I don't lose my rank.

So your saying that even though the dice is bad keep playing games through the day?

I know this might come as a shock to some people, but occasionally, your best bet is to turn your computer off, and go outside. You know, do something real. It won't affect the dice, but it can be good for your mental health.

Don't worry I do. Already went this morning and did a persons lawn and in about an hour or so I'm leaving my house to go to basketball practice and hang around in town.

What is this madness of which you speak?

Are you honestly saying that their are physical, pychological or even spiritual benefits to turning your computer off and going outside?

You do know this is a family-friendly site, right?

There are paedophiles outside.

Only on-line stalkers on the computer.

Keep your children safe. Don't let them play outside.

Lanyards & I:

21v3,3. Lost.
Supermax doubles. Both were dropping 10. I gave lany a stack of 19v3,3. He lost. After our first turn we're now losing troops.

Well, what I did was sigh, shake my head in a combination of disgust and resignation, and then completed a memorandum that I had waiting for me. I went back to the game... I'm not sure if my luck changed or not, but when I looked at the 19 v. 3 game I shook my head again in a combination of disgust and resignation again.

In retrospect, I probably should join LV on his pirate crew.

Pray to some god for better dice. Doesn't matter which one, jesus, alla, whatever. It won't help, but it might make you think its working : )

hehee...

per⋅fect
/adj., n. ˈpɜrfɪkt; v. pərˈfɛkt/ [adj., n. pur-fikt; v. per-fekt]
–adjective

14. Mathematics. (of a set) equal to its set of accumulation points.

mnnnn.... The math definition of perfect is not, well... not perfect
You see, I think to be truly perfect the dice must land with the four sides displaying 2,5,3 and 4, and with 1's hidden from view and facing the table... although, i suppose my "perfect" picture implies this optimum result.

Get pissed off for a few minutes, then go right back to playing happily again.

Yeah, then my team was about to win a game against the two of you, I was poised for an elimination, and lany hits my 16 stack with a his last region (9 toops) a split second before I attack his and he wins with no losses.

You got that right, lany saved his skin by taking 16 and losing 0.
You might want to read that again.
He lost 0.
