von shrad Posted July 20, 2000 Share Posted July 20, 2000 Do you get beat at CM more times than not? Do your well laid-out plans fall to pieces by turn 3? Do Newby's make you look like one too? Then this is the competition for you. A battle of the losers. This started in the 'Think You're Good' thread posted by Pillar. What I propose is a competition between the 'less than stellar'. Once we have the number of contestants tallied we will start. We can bracket them off where the winner advances and the loser is out. They should be meeting engagement QB's with the forces picked for you. The players can come to an agreement as to the parematers that seem fair to them both. ie weather, side, map features etc. If the paired contestants can't come to an agreement then a nuetral person can intervene and decide for them.(I don't think that will be a problem because we are graceful losers after all) So what do you say third stringers? This is your time to shine! Please no Pro's, Ringers, Hustlers or factory sponsored riders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorak Posted July 20, 2000 Share Posted July 20, 2000 Hell, I guess I'll throw my hat into th ring. But I wonder to myself.... Should the winner or the loser be kicked out?

Stuka Posted July 20, 2000 Share Posted July 20, 2000 I would like to have a go at this, my one PBEM game to date was, shall we say, less than successful Please consider me as a punishment sponge, as I will soak up whatever you can dish out and still happily ask for more.....

tss Posted July 20, 2000 Share Posted July 20, 2000 Though I've not completed a full email game against humans yet, I think I could join this competition. Note that on Saturday I'm leaving for a week long trip so it will take that much time before the game gets really on. My email address is in my profile. BTW, I think that the loser should advance, not the winner. - Tommi [This message has been edited by tss (edited 07-20-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PawBroon Posted July 20, 2000 Share Posted July 20, 2000 Are you sure it's the "We are the loosers" application post here? I mean, be serious you don't even have a proper Berlichtingen post to shine with. Dan, are you still bogged down in the mud or are you done playing offence in our game? ------------------ Either he's dead or my watch has stopped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sneaky Posted July 20, 2000 Share Posted July 20, 2000 Just got back from 2.5 weeks vacation and the game was in my mail pile. Don't like losing but I love this game (and therefore have no choice). Count me in. It's my first PBEM as well so expect a short time before the rout is on... thfamily@sprynet.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
