kdp...where do you draw the line between a silent truce and a pga??silent truce nobody knows ye working together pga nobody knows ye working together..dont like truces but if they have to be done i think its fair everybody knows..thats what differs it from a pga

Uh, no, it's incredibly stupid to let everyone know of your truce as that will just get countered. You don't have to be friends with someone you silent truce with, you both just have to be at least decent players. Nothing unfair about that.

mo chara everyone can see people move away from each other on the board. silent truces happen in game, not beforehand.

"You know you fucktards shouldn't advocate that being nice to everyone is how to be successful on the 2/5k tables. That attitude leads to the exclusivity and elitism that newer players bitch about.

Now I trust noobs to be retards, so I don't give them the same leeway as I do someone I know. That said the type of game some of you play on the 2/5k tables is disgusting, fucking roll the dice and stop acting but hurt if your neighbor doesn't want to be nice."

yup, chloe is right, silent truces are detectable. often people will sit there and try to guess who each other player is silent trucing (good players guess correct most of the time), and then tell the table than X truced Y. or sometimes it is enough that it looks pretty close, and you can make a counter to something that isn't really a truce.

chloe what happens when people are constantly silent trucing with each other does that not make it a pga it may not be an intentional 1 but when they choosing people they know to do silent truces with...rather then a new guy at there table...then it does..

1.Game-to-game favors or alliances are not allowed

a lot of people truce against me so i truce too, i dont give a fuck about no rules =D

So how I take kdiceplaya!'s comment is that if you don't like someone who silent truces, then silent truce him and you end up winning. If you don't like someone who doesn't silent truce, then spoken truce him and end up winning. My question is, if kdiceplaya! truces someone, whether silent or spoken, does that player do better than if he wasn't truced by kdiceplaya!?

it's not a matter of choosing who you silent truce, it's a matter of knowing how people will behave. when I sat with leekstep, I used my knowledge that he always truced his neighbour, silently or otherwise. does that make us pga, when I knew he would truce whoever was next to him? silent truces happen all the time as a result of starts. pay attention to moves in round 1 and 2 and you'll spot them.

Of course skrum, people that truce do better than people that don't over the long run. However, Chloe is right.
Also, you got my point wrong.
I was trying to say that i truce people that i dislike because it will help me win; it doesn't matter whether we are friends are not for me to truce them.
main point:trucing wins
