For the Record....

.......there is not a single player on Gravon who can beat me without lotto or amazing luck via guessing. Ace beat me yesterday as he was getting beaten (as usual - he was 1-4 against me prior to the game) by taking huge chances and edbomb (today) lottoed in his best piece (col), took my major and others have come to this realization that there isn't any other way to beat me. If there is a single player who thinks he can beat me without taking tremendous risk and/or lotto, may he step forward because I have not experienced one. Not one.

Does this mean that I am likely the best player on Gravon at this time? Yes, I do believe so but I would have to give notice to Zach as well, with his unusually effective, aggressive style.

And yet you didn't win last year's tournament or even take part. That would have been a good test as its unlikely anyone would win a whole series just using lotto. Hopefully this other tournament will get off the ground though as it will be an equally good chance for you to walk the walk.

You've lost 262 ranked games - may I politely suggest that if you've lost that many games to lotto, you need to look at your setups and make some changes? That's a huge number of games lost to luck. It's annoying when it happens obviously, but thankfully it hasn't happened to me as many times as that. 262 times, maybe put the bombs in different places sometimes?

Oh I see, ok. Well I'll give you your 2 losses to Bolivar today - he is an incredibly skilled lotto player. Still though, 26 losses in just over a month all to bad luck is quite a lot.

We all fall victim to lotto at times

of course some players like lotto without cause. (sometimes they just like to see if the marsh is really there or the comments of the player when he goes crasy)

but most never understand, that beating an unmoved piece or guessing is far away from lotto. their setups are just easy to read like an open book)

in the end the better player is always at top of the ranking.

ya ruby tuesday lottoed the hell out of me yesterday... but it was my own fault... allowing lotto is someone's own fault typically.

Just got done by Parker-Bowles! Nothing more annoying than when you get a good, clean cut win over someone and give them a chance to even up and they abuse it by lottoing you to hell, having realised from the first game this is their only hope. Even more annoying when it actually works. It puts you off wanting to play that 2nd game sometimes.
