The Birth of a New Top Player?

Post by nicolas.b »

the player's name is: guru3.sytes.net (and it JUST fits!)

whenever you feel like taking a match off from your normal playing name, try the server name out and see if you can grab a couple matches. maybe if everybody pitches in we can get it into the top 15 one day. :)

i notched a couple match victories to get the ball rolling. another fun (optional) thing to do is to pretend you are the server playing amongst humans. the idea is, one day you got bored of handling all these annoying posts and decided to play the game for yourself. :D

I'm mostly on tygers servers; cant contribute much,not that good yet, but exellent idea.
How do you pretend to be a server though?

what happens if more players bust in at same game at same time with same names and dump eachother?

wait, i have a good idea
whenever you're bored of your name, switch to "root down"
i mean, if we really try hard maybe we can even get this name all the way to #1

well, I've just put in two more on gohsdarn, but what we realy should do is organize 24/7 presence of that player. that should realy be bot like. i used 15-15-15 colour, never spoke a word and it was hillariuos, they just kept crushin in my wall. never before i had two wins out of two played on darn :D

cool, che! it's up to 7 wins now. :D

sorry, i forgot to answer your Q's from before. let me give with a try:

i have nothing against tank's server playing anywhere it likes, but in particular think it would be cool if it had a good showing on goshdarn, particularly since goshdarn is a very well-known server that a lot of VERY good players play and have made some very impressive results on.

"how do you pretend to be a server?" uh.... take an acting class, maybe?

"what happens if multiple people use that name?" it shouldn't matter too much. all the statistics willl pile up onto the same account if the names are the same. whichever version of the server grabs the win will still push the match total.

24/7 presence? you are welcome to try organising that, but it sounds like it could quickly make this like work, i don;t know. i won't stand in your way, but i'm not sure i'd take part...

uh, btw guys- thanks for all the nice feedback, but it's only a silly idea. if this goes anywhere it will be thanks to all of you, not me. :)

as far as the stats stacking, will the colours each player uses affect this?

Colors won't affect it. They would if you put colors in the name, but because the name is so long there isn't room for that anyway. ;)
