Hey guys and "pro"/pro instead of criticising other clans perhaps the best action you can take is to help them get better at WarLight we need more competitive players that know the game well and can put up a fight on the ladders who better to do this than the pros themselves i know both i and my clanmates would appreciate a pro player coming and giving us all some tips :)

Genghis maybe take your own advice and consider our point of view. Our core players live on different time zones. Different continents even. We strategize just fine with 1 day. we just don't see the need to make games take longer than they need to.

Some people have jobs, poonsquad. It's this thing you get to support yourself when you grow up in exchange of 8 - 10 hours of your day.

Our average age is ~25. All of our core members have full time jobs and most of us have children, spouses, pets, homes, etc. Yet we find the time.

I've played 1v1 's that end in 4 days, 2v2's in a week and 3v3's in 2 weeks. Giving people time to take their turn is polite, understanding and sympathetic. Booting as soon as it hits 1 days 3 seconds is a dick move. It also ruins games. And the thing is poonsquad, you say you strategize, when your only strategy is booting.

Oh great you find time. Get a golden star, you little snowflake. People on warlight retire because that's how difficult it is to find time. Taking that into account, it's not hard to imagine that people can't always be active.

We've never hidden from The fact that our boot times are shorter than usual. But we always warn people in games, we let booted players become AIs, and we set Prerequisites to join our games.

I'm being 100% honest when I say we don't play fast games because we think it gives us a better chance to win. It's just our experience that no matter what the settings are, turns take their full amount of time, or close to it. If you set it at 3 days, someone takes 2 days and 20 hours to play. It got frustrating having to wait that long, when the description of a multi day games is that it's supposed to be played once or twice per day.

So through a lot of trial and error, we found settings that work for us. If you guys don't like our settings, that's fine. But don't tell me that we're worse players because we don't play the game your way. We just don't see how things like fog, neutral armies, and 3 day turns make the game more enjoyable.

There's so many things wrong with that setting lol

I'd rather run a 1v1 100 days boot tournament on issander's huge world.

I mean... 8v8? On a small map? With short boot timer? LIGHT FOG? Airlift/Gifts only?

Hell... I'm not even a good warlight/risk player yet even I know just how much fail there is in this template.

How are you supposed to fit 16 people in 106 territories? This is more of a clusterhell game than a risk/skill game... Only the luckiest will actually manage to take a SINGLE bonus.

Zephyr you know classic risk is 42 territories for 6 people right?

Classic Risk <<<< Warlight

Genghis, I dont want to take sides but QB is right. Going over boot time is surrendering.

Yes, but theres a difference between abandonment of a game and busy for a day or two. Their boot times are for guaranteed wins.

Except classic risk has no transfer, gifting, teams or boot time...

Your ratio is 6.625 : 1 territories per player, worse than risk. Nobody liked risk, or its kingmakers.

You people debate like freaking teenagers.

are you Femalestrom alt?

No. I'm Femaelstroms wife.

Well......your wife does a lot better than you

If you're truly able to play well and communicate well within 1 day, then why are you 1-3 in that tournament you created?

Because they booted all of their opponents.
