BOMB played 1649 games in the month of April.
Since he never really played out of the 500 tables, we will assume that those games go faster. Just for argument sake... I don't agree with this point because I think ppl don't flag out of lower tables as quickly as higher tables, but whatever. So the average game takes 12 mins. 1649 * 15 = 24735 mins spent playing kdice. 24735/60 = 412.5 hours spent playing kdice. 412.5/24 = 17 days spent playing kdice. The average work week is 5 days a week with a grand total 20 days. Think about it... how many of you played games with Bomb? And how many of you are spread across different time zones. I understand your frustration with the points buying, but this was a team of people playing on account. If you need more proof, we have it. |

at 9:30 AM, Thursday May 1, 2008 EDT It is entirely possible to play 2 games at once.
However, it is not possible to have 2 people logged into an account at the same time. |

at 9:31 AM, Thursday May 1, 2008 EDT So where are the firm results? Does Ryan log IP addresses for accounts? That still wouldn't matter because I doubt Bomb has a dedicated IP in his parking garage booth. I don't even have one at my house. I work from home and I could easily play kdice 10+ hours a day. My job consists of a little more work than manning a parking garage booth though. It's really sad that you had to buy your 2nd place. Do you have no dignity?

at 9:34 AM, Thursday May 1, 2008 EDT Other notable number examples:
DaShiva, 774 games this month. Bone Roller, 890 games in March. Atta de Heerser, 780 this month. Vohaul, 650 in January. ... Several players have logged more than 600 games in various months. It's not beyond the realm of possibility that one guy, with a particular mix of personality and lifestyle, could exceed those numbers. As for the length of time each game is estimated to take, you've got to also consider that the user in question doesn't normally chat much at all. That frees up a LOT of time to jump from game to game simultaneously -- he steps in, makes his moves, then moves on to another board. Conversation saps energy and concentration. |

More devil's advocate: [10:35] ITeggy: anyway if you want to really calculate time [10:35] ITeggy: you have to look at place [10:36] ITeggy: top 3 places usually take the same amount of time [10:36] ITeggy: and he has like 17% of each [10:36] dasfury15: good point [10:36] ITeggy: so that's 51% [10:36] ITeggy: the rest are 4-7 [10:36] ITeggy: which go pretty fast [10:37] ITeggy: like 1 minute and you're done [10:37] ITeggy: plus consider he doesn't chat [10:37] ITeggy: like all the other regulars |

at 9:35 AM, Thursday May 1, 2008 EDT Just one thought about that last post, Dicey; what is winning really about?
Is it about the points you have at the end? Is it about the position shown next to name? Is about Ryan saying, hey Dicey your 2nd this month, and by the way thx for the money? Or isnt it at the end of the day the respect of others, that admire great achievments of their heros, what makes us looking for a win and keep competeing? So, in this sense and in my eyes u r 2nd in April. Bomb is 1st and Wish xst! Even if you, be happy you finally didnt, would have got 1st, it would just feel like a doped guy winning Tour de France or the Olimpics. That cant be the rigth way even if you want it so badly. The great moments in life dont come to you by buying them; and if they aint great. Think about it and i am sure u will be with the clean guys again, because you are a really kdice-player and its them that will mostly be hurt by the buying stuff. |
