I don't think he's saying they are stacked "against him." He's saying that the dice are anything but random. Hell, how many times have you rolled and KNOWN that you weren't going to win the next roll? It's especially frustrating when 1 army takes out 5 or 6 of yours. The odds of that are not so ...

To be fair it very rarely helps to have a deadbeat partner

False. In a six person doubles game (especially), it's unlikely that one person will be eliminated (or even beat down very much) by the third round. So, all of the sudden, one player has 40 armies. In games with unlimited forts, this ...

God, I am sick to death of some turd deadbeating and his partner reaping a reward for it. What makes more sense--for the people on other teams to suffer for the deadbeat or for the person TEAMED with the deadbeat to suffer?

thx, all.

I got my swords!!!

It's about time. I've been between 1550 and 1597 for three weeks.

Unfortunately, it will likely be shortlived, as I have six pending games that look to be losers.

So, yay! And, boo!

I am old enough that I remember when contestants used to "spend" their prize money in themed rooms ("outdoors" with jet skis, "living room" with couches, etc.).

Now, admittedly, the show has ALWAYS played second fiddle to Jeopardy. Whatever. The reason it sucks now is that THEY NEVER SHOW THE ...

Well, as to letting them finish, I suppose that makes some sense. However, I don't get why you should have to lose points to someone who is cheating.

This is (sorta) reposted from the cheating thread. Anyway, what happens? Are they locked out of finishing games they are currently in (turning them into de facto deadbeats)?

Is there any way to get back the points a person loses to a multi? If not, is this something that lack is currently ...

I worship at the altar of sully.

EDIT: So what happens? Are they locked out of finishing games they are currently in? Is there any way to get back the points a person loses to a multi? Do you or Master Bush have the power to have them and their families slain?

Well Dr. Jim, I was referring to people deadbeating completely out of a game. The issue of getting your missed armies is a whole other creature (and another one that I think should be addressed). Lack's to-do list should read more like:

Get dice that don't suck
Fix the deadbeat rules
Address ...

It's especially frustrating on a large map. All of the sudden, the guy who remains has 50 or 70 freakin' armies. Great. If you are playing no cards, might as well kiss your ass goodbye.

Eddy and I have lost (at least) two games because one person deadbeated his first three turns and his partner benefited from getting all the extra armies. If a person is kicked out, even in a doubles or triples game, his armies should go neutral. That would punish the deadbeat's team and not the ...

I'm out. This is taking WAY too long, which doesn't bode well for game play when (if) it ever starts.

Sound off.

Dude with a rainbow. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

My theory is that yesterday's halftime showed appealed to a very specific demographic.

Yeah, I suppose. You tell me.
