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 4:51 PM, Sunday January 1, 2012 EST Hey grandgnu, enjoy your retirement, you lucky someone created a new competition with different rules (and so similar name) when you were close to lose your leadership, so you could win and change your goal easily...although the truth is that i got the TAZD ;)

The only one who's believes the TAZD is a better test of skill than the TAZD* is Skrum from everything I've read, so enjoy your hollow victory. I'll take my: 24% 1sts 18% 2nds 20% 3rds to your pathetic 15% 1sts 16% 2nds 16% 3rds |

Enjoy spending 600+ games a month here, I'm sure it's time well spent |

at 10:37 PM, Sunday January 1, 2012 EST dottir, to be clear, it's a similar name because the TAZD* is an improvement on the TAZD- not a new statistic altogether. The TAZD* has been around much longer than it appears. I didn't run the stats for a few months, but this was the second annual TAZD* competition (i.e. the TAZD* has existed longer than you've been playing dice).

at 10:49 PM, Sunday January 1, 2012 EST Take a look at Dottir's percentage trend from January 2011 to December. The "pathetic" final standings do not reflect how she has done in recent months. She won the TAZD in spite of her worse earlier percentages dragging her back. As a matter of fact, she would have cleaned your clock if only her last six months were counted.
TAZD envy. |

I know why the name is TAZD* Chloe, im just being naughty with grandgnu, and you right, I never read about it until last month because i wasnt here when you created it, so my fault. (Since i know the new rules i have worked on it too, but it has been too late to compensate the rest of the year) |

Blablabla & "grandgnu wrote at 11:24 AM, Monday August 15, 2011 CDT You should all be rooting for me to win the yearly TAZD. Because WHEN I do, I'll retire from kdice." I read perfectly, what about your memory grandpa? :P |
