Star, I'm actually amazed that you haven't updated this to reflect Krath as an imminent tier one player nowadays. Although they have of course had back and forth results, you personally have witnessed him beat Greyfox, JJ, Cykur, Tyr & Amish.

His grasp of the game is 2nd to none right now IMO and his play style continues to be very adaptive. His main strength is that he is very proactive in recognizing developing situations and responds

Online multip-layer has been trudging along. Several prominent regulars are doing the Diplomacy (some may call it Dip-lame-acy) beta, and when it launches I think you will see a mass migration to it. But for the most part, game is going strong.

[quote]for example... the biggest thing there is (and the thing your missing) Is Kicking people. Sometimes people will wait an HOUR for a game to start... and then someone comes in and asks "any room?" and the host of the game will kick someone who freaking waited an hour to get kicked. This is preety gay. [/quote]Yes, it's unfortunate when you don't make it into a game regardless how long you wait, but whatever the circumstances the real issue is "quality-of-contest".

Since P5y's post on AFK'rs has been nuked, I thought I would take a different tack and create a thread that documents complaints against individuals that exhibit certain traits. This is in an effort to make them accountable for their actions of unsavory, rude, or just inappropriate behavior, especially when it results in prolonging an otherwise decided contest. The following infractions shall be noted (with prejudice): AFK during game, particularly END GAME.

Have everyone sign up for the tournament on a different thread, list their names at the top, then lock it at the deadline. Those people will be in. Then make a playing schedule that will allow everyone on that list to play eachother. The tourney will take however long it takes to finish, probably a few months. I'm not volunteering, mind you.

[quote who="Valkya" reply="4" id="2477417"]What is the point? The only possible value to discrete player names is to track their win/loss record. But even this is meaningless as wins/losses can be artificially inflated in seconds. What would more likely end the need for smurfing is the remove the viewable win/loss record or perhaps make in only viewable to friends.[/quote][quote who="Agent of Kharma" reply="5" id="2477519"]Raging, this may sound like a dumb question to

[quote]I just got out of a 3 and a half hour game, so I kinda don't see the argument in "Sins is getting faster".
