SURVIVOR: MajCom : Season 1 : WINNER!

[ghost]

I wish we had gotten to the 12th round!
Anyway, I agree with ghost's analysis that communication was poor in the losing team. Having good and effective communication is not easy though, it takes practice and patience. In my case, at the very beginning I didn't have much to say because the initial map didn't highlight (to me) any immediate opportunity/threat on a strategic level, therefore I decided to wait a turn to see if anything clearer had emerged. However, in the following turns discussions seemed to be centered too much around tactical moves and not strategical goals. Also, there is a consideration of timing. If I am about to make a move, and I want to involve my teammates in the decision (should I go this way or that way) I need to have feedback now, not after my turn is over. With 8 players, and asynchronous play, that's just impossible. So, all in all, communication is easier said than done.
In my case, I am still learning.

Oh, and I nominate myself, so I am eliminated.

look at you and ashr running away... lol. "vote me vote me"... come on! this is survivor! you should not want to leave!

anyhow, here's the thing.. yes, we needed to communicate our opinions, after our turns.. before the other persons turn... it's not an issue of levels of communication, it was a simple LACK of communication. i don't want to tell people what their moves should be, i don't want to tell people what they should do. playing this as a team game, it is important we all agree on what we do, but in the end, if when it's your turn you think something else might work better then what your teammates suggest.. by all means, go for it. that's the whole thing, you learn.. as you go along. watch your opponents moves and learn from them.

i could go on for hours, bottom line.. neither one of you are voting yourselves off, because that's not in the rules. you're both going to send Bado a vote, and let the cards fall as they may!

 

[asunder]

Yes it's definitely abt communication. You Deploy, Attack, & Reinforce as planned.. however, in the end it doesn't matter when u are consistently dice raped.

Fun game, onto the next!

 

[ghost]

i prefer the term, dead diced.. lol.

 

[jeymo]

Hey, Is my team comfortable with the same map......or classic ( Escalate), 1 reinforce, and border) ??????

I believe the proper word is, "strategery."

 

[Badorties]

A player can vote for their self. Either to be eliminated or to be moved to the other team. However this does not mean it will be so, as the votes still follow the rules, and majority or tie breaker will need to be reached.

So a new development.

has been voted off the island by his team.

and
has been voted to the opposing team

The new teams are

Team Kamchatka


and

Team Irktusk



As soon as Jeymo confirms the settings, the game will be created by me.

 

[ghost]

ashr played a good hand indeed...
but this time around, let's focus.. ALL of US on communicating
before and after our moves.

 

[jeymo]

Same settings!

 

[ghost]

bring it.. bitch!!

 

[Borgified]

Hey, Is my team comfortable with the same map......or classic ( Escalate), 1 reinforce, and border) ??????

Yes, comfortable with the same map and same settings, good choice.

 

[Badorties]

Invite sent. Let the games begin!

The winning team will vote off 2 members of the losing team... so play to win!

 

[Silver]

The invite didn't work for me, can I get a different link?

 

[giuppi]

Team Kamchatka is already there... how long do we have to wait for you guys??

Too late, I already nominated myself, and was Eliminated.

Dice Raped. I love that expression, I hope it doesn't demean people who are from Dice Origins, or people who have been hurt by Dice in other ways.
I wonder if I can use that phrase publicly without seeming like an insensitive pig.

 

[ashr]

Where is the GAME? I want to watch.!!

 

[ashr]

Crap, chatter is only available to Playing members.


We need a chatter/trash talk interface where Viewing members can talk smack to playing players!!!

Go Red Team!!!

 

[ashr]

Crap, I am also stuck with Default Colors, since I am not playing, and cannot therefore create my beauftiful Red vs Blue color arrangments.

 

[ashr]

Still looks like Red is kicking Ass, wish I could "listen" in on the strategy to see what's going to happen next. Blue team is "doomed"

 

[giuppi]

Guys what's the matter with missed turns? If you think you've lost already admit the defeat and let's move to the next game.
