Online Risk Smack Board

... arm outstretched, rapidly tapping at inside of arm by the elbow...

sorry not to post yesterday the 14-th

or


egads and yikes_____no one posted on the 14-th!

anyway, am having a stroke over the intensity of recent games.
and
actually felt like
I am in the hunt for one....dispite computer failures.

Games are going better for me....

Have figured out how not to get eliminated in the 1-st round,

and now have a 5-round plan.

sure....yeah....right


anyway, am looking forward to a scholarly disertation and
report promelgating the Thanksgiving festivities including
insightful notes on games, food, and the official meeting
that I am sure took place



oh, and more CC

OMG....valley girl style!


I won a fog game..amazing.....really......I should have lost

won by only 2 guys



actually closer than than that

had to split up my forces.....and the other one

won....exactly on a 2 to 1 situation.

I am exhuasted

Hey, I won one....WUWT........Whats Up With That
or
what the fudge

The senate was also fun....and if I would have had just one earlier roll go my way,

or I think I lost 8 and the other guy lost none and I did not get a card,

and so someone else got the break with extra cards....but, I held on to the bitter end

speaking of FOG
......from the available game thread......

wonder where everone is tonight

kinda quiet on CC

guess shopping and decorating for the holidays is keeping us busy.

though, I was out measuring my one tree that I like to light up
in traditional fashion,

but

this fir tree grows about 12 to 18 inches per year depending on rainfall
oh
and one year I foolishly watered it ....a-lot....year round,
even in winter.....cause....fir trees grow the year round


anyway, it now stands at about 24-feet tall,
I use a very long pole to determine height along with
the height of the house....currently at 25-feet.


and so the short story here is....it is way to gosh darn big!

or.....I need a cherry picker/crane to get to the top (my pole now to short
to do the job)

It took 4000 mini-bulbs the last time I did it.

and it is not that hard, as I think target has philipps 7-color mini bulbs
at $9.99 each last time I bought some,
and they are 200-bulbs per strand, and the instructions let you
put 6 strands together, tho three strands of 1200 does use up one
whole 20 amp circuit in the house....but, heck, years ago I had one installed

and then


gee......sorry, this was suppose to be a post about a risky smack board on line....

ok will give that CC game a week or so for others to join,

in the meantime.....

have become very good at knowing who will win any CC game
by just seeing where the opening set up gives certain players an advantage.
This includes me being almost gone or actually gone by round 3
unless
it is a very large game

//edit//

ps, the dice still are wrong....no way can you roll 1 die against 3 dice,
and win 4 times in a row or more......more than once in the same game.

it just seems wrong

ok, gave up waiting when others who were in droped the game.

Have met others over there, One guy from Canada is a fun gamer,
TheTick
but watch out....he is good

Random is random

Need people to jump in the available games...I'm getting the itch to play!

Xmav........HLEP


Hey, I am in a CC game and well, does this sound familiar,




It's my turn
it's free Style
I am starting the game


I deploy and make my moves,
but

everyone else plays before I have a chance to finish my turn,
and as the game progresses,
some finish between the time I press....begin turn and deploy

ie......no one else can play until I do

I have a continent

I click begin and the move to deploy.....fast as I can,
but......still not fast enough.


and so......is there special software addons that give others an advantage
in this area?


The game I am in is very fast....tho has stopped abruptly at this time.


look for a speed analysis later

Well, it might help if you posted the game number.

However, you need to plan out your turn BEFORE you click "Begin". Decide where you want to place your men, where you want to attack, etc. Plan all this out in advance, and then do it as fast as possible. I'm pretty good at this, and I've taken people out on a few occasions after they started their turn, but before they could deploy men.

There aren't really any add ons that will help, except "Conquer Tell Notifier" which you can find in the "Conquer Club Tools" thread. This add on will beep when it is your turn to play a game.

Thanks Mav....just the confirmation I needed to know.


They were just very fast....and I was very slow,

or....my mouse and how my monitor displays the play area
make ever move kinda difficult.

just to deploy is a multi click move the screen around
douoble check process for me....that I must now learn to
steamline some how.

This is the response I get from my computer at work when I try to log on to

www.conquerclub.com

What you can do:

Using Plesk, you can create domains with web hosting on a single physical server.

well, this game site seems up and running again....but I am worse off than ever.

Losses are piling up and all else is in chaos....

If only I could see the whole board at once and actually see the army counts.
and
If only I did not have to constantly scroll from move area to board area to
double check everything
and
If only I could stop making silly moves, I just keep mis-reading the board
and what I click on....

will probly not play any more games until the 6-th,
and since I can not play from home anymore (see person above you thread)
I will probly not be in that many
or
my join up time will be on Sun/Mon mostly

I have been doing terrible lately. I am way down, below 1000, 829 to be exact.

wonder what the point of this game is

746010

ok, I am back....see other threads for explinations of computer trouble,

oh.....and also be sure to post comments on as many threads as possible


I have access at home and here, and will do my best to make you all nervous

Hey guys, I managed to win one......yipee!


anyway, am now waiting for just 1 more player on a game

The amazing Xmav has started

be warned however, I am still a mystery and play excentricaly,
tho, I think I am getting better___well, am lasting longer,
and with a plan.

still waiting____Xmav game____1633577

4-player game____me_mav_bdz___so far,

At least I have not frighten mav and bdz away

and____ref game___1622253


This is a really goofy one.

As some may remember, I have no faith or confidence in the overall set up
and organization of the conquere games____but still they are fun
and entertaining. (especially doubt how the numbers are generated for the dice)


anyway, in game 1622253

A new commer, (just signed up that day for that game)

managed to get credit for holding every country on the board,
(which means they should have won the game),
but in fact they held nothing at that time.

Check it out, One of the other players says they are turning it over to a mod,
so, it is either a giant bug in the game matrix,
or some kind of hack-job.

I really liked the game, cause it had 8 players.

oh well, another loss for me. Can not stop a player getting 20 or more guys on
every turn, no matter what they currently hold.

Hey, the above game so corrupted I got this message from conquer-admin

Hello MusicTrooper,

Due to technical difficulties game 1622253, which you joined, had become corrupted beyond repair and had to be deleted.

We apologize for any inconvenience this causes.

Regards,
The Conquer Club

Ya, where is VIO at, can't play 3 pacman games and some of ours at the same time! Well, maybe now that he is a year older he can't keep that many things on his plate at once.

Ya, wait a few hours and I'm the bad guy!

OK, the end of the universe or something is happening,
