Since it's only a few days until I claim the TAZD* yearly crown, I figured I'd give my acceptance speech now.
I've played this damned game for far too many years. Starting off I bitched and whined about all the cheaters, the pga's, the multi-accounters, etc. Eventually I stopped caring so much and focused on being the biggest dick I could be, focused solely on my own advancement in a match, and incorporated backstabs into my strategy. The game became a lot more fun when I cared less about the results. Throughout that time I never got involved with PGA or multi-accounting, as I viewed that as for the weak. I prefer my victories to be based on my own skill at manipulating others at the table, not because I have a three-person team that can't lose as soon as the match begins. I enjoyed hearing all the prejudices people from outside the US have towards people from my country, was quite hilarious (and even sometimes true!) What I'm really trying to say is: I'm better than you, stick to minesweeper n00bs and uninstall ur game. Thank you for reading and enjoy the future of kdice without my dominance. |

at 5:42 AM, Friday December 30, 2011 EST @deadcode I think you're basing your assumptions that I didn't play the diplomatic game or top tables on my past year of gameplay.
I've been here since June 2007 and played 2K and 5K games and broke into the top 20 numerous months. There is significant cheating required if you want a top 10 spot. Either multi-accounts or PGA. You can claim the top players don't PGA, but there's a limited pool of players at those tables and this results in implied collusion in the least (i.e. You get the guys ranked 14th and 20th in a game and they're more likely to respect one another and target the guy who just hit 2K points and is sitting at the table, plus people form their cliques and tend to team up time and time again from one game to the next) @K8Dice I was going for stupid and annoying, I assume it was a success? |

at 8:56 AM, Friday December 30, 2011 EST Well I beg to differ. I'm top 10 and I do not collude; PGA; or use multiple accounts. So there you have it.

at 10:34 AM, Friday December 30, 2011 EST By friendice I assume you are referring to social game; yes i agree social game is very important. If you are not friendly you will create pges.
In a 0 game; you can cuss and insult with very little care for who you are playing with. At 2k acting like that will ruin your season; as you will be playing with those people very frequently. |

Those n00bs in Battlefield 3 aren't going to pwn themselves! |

How many times have I said on here or to people "I quit" too fucking many. This month tho(Dec.) I actually forgot about what I did in the past and look toward my future of what people like you who stick to RPG games have taught me. Keep going forward. You'll be back grand and you'll be back with a vengeance. I might give you two months and you'll be so pisted at Battlefield 3 you will return. Anyways grandgnu, who knows you might NOT have won the TAZD...just saying. |
