I've had it!

by **stlpete77** on Fri Oct 09, 2009 4:20 am

Yeah I'm the cheap bastard with the free account and can only play 4 games at once so it really irks the shit outta me when idiot players join a game that I create, take their turn and fuckin log out?!? Seriously this recent moron logged on, joined my game, took his turn and logged out like within the next minute! I'm irritated because now I have a full board of games that the people playing in wanna take 23 hours and 57 minutes to take their turn.. O if only one could reach their hands through a computer screen.... SLAP!

apparently you don't understand the concept of casual... 24 hrs to take your turn

Or post in Callouts. People are always looking for RT games there too.

I feel your pain, but unless the other player knows you want to play rt, you really can't fault them for only playing one turn.

by **King_Herpes** on Fri Oct 09, 2009 2:14 pm

Sorry about your little butt.

by **HayesA** on Fri Oct 09, 2009 2:30 pm

You know, slow players bug me too. Yes you have 24 hours to take your turn, but is it so much to ask to log in 2 or 3 times every day to check your games? No it's not, so do it.

but I payed to play, and prefer speed games anyway unless it's a tournament or games with my community, and i'm not as caring because most of the players I prefer to play with are people who hold down jobs, and have familys. Not really the younger crowd; so it's expected they'd have more things going on then just conquer club.

Live chat and callouts, didnt know either existed. Ok I'll just try that next time. I was pretty aggravated when I posted that last nite

Right, there are some options for Freemiums to set up Real Time games---you just have to go looking and be aware!

Was this directed towards me?? Hmm.. Well if so, I'm not really certain who owen is and no the player I was speaking of wasn't named owen either.

You know.. You're right. I should just get premium.. O wait, that's right. I got laid-off and don't have a JOB!

Join a clan and get a premium out of one of your new "friends!" DBC does it like every day.

Or, request an option from developers:

rank requirement: not(?)

I can think of plenty of players who love to beat up on ?'s so I don't think the feature would be overused.

dude stop being bitter and be glad that you do get the 4 games. until a week or so ago i was freemium. I managed it and accepted my 4 game allowance. Be glad you got it. Use the forums more in a nice way and you could still have a good time. If you want rt games use the appropriate sections (especially live chat and Callouts) but don't expect rt in every game.. that's just not realistic... not everyone can be online for long.

Another possibility.... play 1v1's (especially AOR or feudal) which are short and quick in rt... you are more likely to get someone willing to play rt there.

BUT if there is no rt agreement don't expect it!

In this case you are wrong. As stated before, you need to find people and agree in advance to play real time. As for the premium thing. Mow some lawns, play some basket ball. (ask godsav1 or whatever his name is :lol:

looks like i need to play more games with freemiums and just take my 1 turn per day

by **bob72** on Mon Oct 12, 2009 10:14 am

25 USD or around 50c per week or around 7c per day.

7c per day even unemployed could scrounge up that from collecting returnable bottles....

8-)

I'm European so generally hated by the NA players as I take my turn 12 hours later than everyone else.

by **laughingcavalier** on Mon Oct 12, 2009 11:48 am

im in Europe. my dubs partner is in the Pacific. we like to play our turns together. People REALLY hate us.

Maybe you should be out looking for a job instead of wasting time hoping for RT on a gaming website?

I've been on a team like that, only slightly better - I was in Detroit, my partner was in the UK. Still, people didn't like us either.

That's why it's free...pay the money if you want more games...2.00/month is not that bad IMO
