@Benjamin, I'm sure your Lithuanian grammar is excellent :P

^Lol.

@Cata He hasn't made a real argument either?

@Beren I know, I'm just sick of him criticizing a person who does a ton for the community.

I got myself booted in something like 11.5% of my games because i took on too many multi-day games.
It was realy annoying, i had to stay active for some real slow-paced games(and some tournies)
and then i took on new multi-day games because i wanted to have some more-interesting games,
which took too much time, until a point came where i just quit warlight for a few months.
(and one of the games, which i made, is still running after 2 freakin' years)
Nowadays i take on a maximum of 5 multiday-games and if i wanna play more i 'll play RT.


My advice : Surrender the games you're struggling to take your turn,
not just because boot-rate, but also because it will be a mental note that
you have taken on too many games/tournies and you're less likely to make that mistake again.
Clanwork i got no experience in(and after reading this i think i want to keep it that way)
but i suggest to not let yourself be obligated to do anything.

I am just.... Addicted.. to ......... what? :/

Benjamin628, if i would care about something else than how to hurt kids feelings, i would never write here. I really hate kids. "Look at me, i am kid! i will flood forums with nonsense and will be troll. Or "Look at me, i am kid, I will create hundreds games for others players, but after month or two i will play other games, forget warlight, created games and I will not know how Heyheuhei is sad becouse this"
I totally hate kids

Seriously though what is your fucking problem? You are following me on every thread posting shit about me. Why can't just go fuck yourself and do something more productive than following me around annoying me. I am still making leagues/tournaments and monitoring just not as much as I would like too..

Platinum, some famous people like you have also negative fans.

It happens, gotta embrace it ;)

Kids are great ^^ The little and bigger ones

@Quicksand, I kind of agree with you now that I think about it. But you can't make a generalization about all people under the age of 18 just because of how someone acts on a video game website.

Benjamin. Don't reply to him and neither use my name in your posts.

I'm serious. Don't do it.

I really hate kids.
I totally hate kids

Then you should probably stay away from the forums, or maybe Warlight entirely. There are a lot more kids here than you'd care to know.

It's funny, platinum. It really is. Because, well. ..


I PREDICTED ALL OF THIS AND WAS CORRECT. SUCK IT , BITCH.

I hope you get things figured out, Platinum, you deserve recognition for your efforts :)

there are a lot of decent kids on here, but they act like adults. there are also some immature adults here who may as well be kids. :P

@Plat

5 options:

1. a life
2. school
3. forums
4. forum-organized games
5. normal WL games

You can pick any 3. Choose wisely.


LOL I picked 2,3,5

Pfft. If you think that's a fuck-up, here's one of mine: https://www.reddit.com/r/tifu/comments/30qf1e/tifu_by_getting_hacked_at_a_hackathon/

Way too long for me to read, but if it's any consulation prize I think you're alright.

And there are a crazy amount of kids on this site, but that means either get used to it, or move on. There's no point in complaining about 75% of the playerbase.

Point #1: You are in too many games. Stop joining them until your sanity is restored. You may have to surrender some (better than being booted).

Point #2: You may have ADHD.

Elaboration on point #1: When I started getting more involved with multi-player, I joined game after game, until I was at like 50-60 multi-day games at once. For those lazy days when I had nothing to do, this kept up the pace and let me play pretty much continuously, with the odd break here and there for sleep/eating/etc.

But then I realized that I would have to keep up that pace pretty much every day in order to maintain it. No time for other stuff. And when I was doing other stuff, I kept worrying about whether I had taken all my turns, etc. Too many games = anxiety.

I had to wean myself off of starting new games and just play out my existing games until the numbers started coming down. It took surprisingly long to get it down to 20 or so. Now I'm at less than 10, which is easily manageable.

Elaboration on point #2: I say that because I myself have ADHD. The long and the short of it is that I get too caught up in too many things at once and I just don't have enough 'focus' to go around for all of them. Maybe you *don't* have ADHD; but even if you don't, you still should strive to become self-aware enough that you can recognize when you take on too much and put yourself at risk of getting overwhelmed with anxiety. Take your mental health seriously; if you're getting too stressed out, slow things down; give yourself a break; prioritize what's most important and focus on those things. But seriously, you may have ADHD. Might be worth looking into. :-)

yeah you're in too many games right now
playing 30 games at once is always difficult,you need to cut down on your games count
don't join all the tournaments you've been invited to,they never end,and play only as many ladder games as you can at a time

if you play too many games it also affects your winning rate,since you'd much rathr want a game to end so you can move on than think for longer so you can try to win that one
if you have limited no. of games that you can manage easily,you'll also be able to improve your skill as you can analyze each game longer

Dr.Stupid wants my head. I've been hated from that clan ever since

Lol. I don't want anyone's head. I politely declined to be in one of your events because I questioned your leadership abilities. One of the abilities of leadership is to manage your time wisely. Another is to recruit other team members and/or other leaders to help you bear the load. In retrospect, it would seem that I may have been correct in my assessment. The good news is, you aren't the first person to overextend themselves (See Kasparov/Forbidden Knowledge) and you won't be the last. This is a learning experience and if you handle it well, it will greatly mature your leadership abilities.

Hated from the clan? I didn't mention our conversation to anyone else in my clan, nor do I speak for them. If anyone dislikes you, it's for their own reasons, not anything I said to them.
