Escalating freestyle unlimited is the only way to go.
Most interesting at least....

Absollutly agree with ya.
Think back to when you started the game.....it was all for fun wasn't it?
Now when you have some points you're all so worried to lose them...
I read it once on this forum can't remember who wrote it but it went something like this....DOES IT GET YOU LAID? DO YOU HAVE ...

LOL like the "chill winston" comment.

Only problem with this is that the premium low score players will have a major advantage over the non-premium or high score players.
But hell it's just a game.

Great suggestion.
I think the player of the month should be whoever wins the 6-man standard of the top 6 players that month.
Why?
Cos everyone plays doubles or triples games not just standards and their points increase whatever the gameplay is.
So, the player of the month should be the one who ...

You all just backed my opinion.
And no dan,i'm not getting too exited. Just the way i discuss things.
The fact is it would take too long for that.
And when i play board risk i like to shuffle the cards so that everyone has been dealt with random countries. Again the random thing appears...

I don't think they should.

"Why should we start in a bad position?"
WHO SAYS WE START IN A BAD POSITION?
We all start on the same amount of armies and the same amount of countries. DON'T WE? Don't see your point here. The country's each player recieves is RANDOM. Sometimes you get good placements sometimes you get bad. The ...

On a real board game called RISK that this game is based on you do not have the chance to choose your countries do you?
So why would you have it here?
IT'S RANDOM. Always been.

I see now you actually played a lot of games with good players.
You must have seen them win a game when in a bad position?
You actually played more games than me.
But i still don't think it's luck that you win games.
I do think it is sometimes a benefit that you have great placements on the ...

Doesn't it frustrate any of you when you open up a game for the 1st time and you know that you have a slim chance to win? That you will need the LUCK of the dice just to have a chance because the initial set up put you at a disadvantage?

And the answer is NO.
When you play more games you'll ...

Sorry, although I don't think i insulted you.
If you make suggestions you have to be prepared to take criticism for them.
The last suggestion you made is a bad one. Really bad. That's my opinion and i do belive i have a right for it. It would take too much time setting up every game and many ...

Now you messed it up.
The initial suggestion about the deployment of numbers of armies you can place was something to talk about....
The latter suggestion sucks.

What do you mean by "get to pick your own countries"?
Sure i'd like to have australia or S. America from the start.
The deployment of your armies could be interesting....

Thanks

And while we're at it.....I need 1188....soooo...thanks.

Too bad he stopped on 2999......it's like you drop dead on the finish line.

Let us all give him 0.001 of our points in order for him to get the ONE.

All in favour say AY!!

AY!

Then go with the normal attack.
Auto Attack is for the territory's you NEED to take out FAST. Or for big army clashes. I'm greateful it stops on 3.

Is there someone who doesn't watch?
Not sure about the dice though...

Try for a day Andy and see. If its slowing the server than no. If not...great.
Nice suggestion

One can do that?!
Please teach me master....

And yes....I do like to be paddled.

Hmmm I'm interested....on one condition. YOU PADDLE Dlakavi. Then we'll talk..

thank you tannar, nice to get some support.

thank you koolbak, our relationship grows with every post.
i still think dick larvae is a cock though, sorry if hes your mate.

No, he's my mate.
I sincerely hope you improve on your gameplay cos you suck so far and that ain't no way for a champion ...

i entered the risk world championships and won.
back when we used boards and that, not computers.
i was unbeaten untill i was defeated 2 games to 1 by deep blue, the same computer used against kasperov.

Not doing so well friend? Lost some games?
Perhaps you should try consulting your old ...
