When good dice go bad.

[edsdad]

Just wondering what other folks do when the dice turn on them.
Me ! Well, I rant and rave,cry like a little girl and curse the dice gods for kicking me in the nuts.
Wife thinks I'm losing my mind.

I generally turtle up and resign to possibly snagging an win if the escalating sets gets high enough.

I use the in-game chat to bitch about my rotten luck, hoping that it will piss the other players off enough to take me out and put me out of my misery. This probably explains why my score will never break 2500.

 

[ghost]

i get annoyed, finish my turn quickly...
then curse to Bado about how stupid the dice can be.

 

[Kjell]

I write an angry song about it.

 

[MNGarseeah]

I yell "Serenity Now!" until I go insane

i just lost 2 games to absolute noobs. why? becouse everytime i had the upperhand the dice hit me in the face with somekind of cruel irony. these guy where absolute noobs, im talking about not trying to break my commands even. they even got a 3 first reserves set 3 times in a row which is like a 3.6 % chance of happening if i have calculated correctly. And now i have to ask does this site give some kind of handicap to new players so they will stick around or something?

 

[Badorties]

Sorry Restrepo, when I upgraded you to strategist I accidentally ticked "DiceRape" too. I have unselected that setting for you. All good.

 

[Restrepo]

funny

 

[Cardinalsrule]

could you please go back in and 'uncheck' that box on my settings, too, Bado? Appreciate it.....

Where do I send a muffin basket? After the last few rounds I've had, I could SWEAR that such a box has been selected for me too. Its been baaaaaaad...

After all I've done for the blitz button, this is how I get repaid.....

I bricked a 90% shot, and then the very next game hit a 2v1 to barely save a 90% shot. Both games, I could've won with even moderate dice, since thankfully I've been beating people like redheaded stepchildren recently. As the French say, quelle fromage.

Yeah i hate when you loose a certain kill in a round but when you look for an easy card you win an almost impossible shot like 2v1

What makes you more mad? Losing 2 units over and over in a big/moderate size fight or not being able to take out 1 unit with around 10 troops? I go crazy with both but I think I hate it the most when you lose 5-6 troops when they only have one. Especially when you are trying to take out a large groups of ones.

Also, I am curious what people think. I am a competitive guy but I don't mind losing. I play a ton of sports and never get upset when I lose. I just have fun. Other games like computer or board games I just enjoy. But there is something about the dice going bad that makes me punch things and threaten my computer to be thrown out the window. Can anyone else relate?

 

[Badorties]

Well.. we have an upcoming feature that will certainly keep your computer from ending up on the lawn.

Oooh, do tell. My computer is experiencing a lot of anxiety recently...

It basically takes the luck out of the dice equation. So you can plan your moves with absolute certainty.

Hmmm, so would that be an option to select when creating a game? I like it as an option.

 

[Badorties]

yes of course.
