Connemara2100 Posted December 3, 2003 Share Posted December 3, 2003 Yeah, the Zone is lame. I used to play JK on there, and that was fun, but I imagine it would be less amusing to play GBG. It's a lot more satisfying just ripping into annoying Zoners with a lightsaber, but if you try and beat them stategically, they get angry and stuff. See? I am nice, because I don't get that way. I can be creamed and just be like, ok. Though I did get rather irrtable after I was rushed by saber...mainly because I didn't expect a rush maneuver. This time I was prepared, unfortunately, it did me no good. Did you choose that map on purpose Vostok? Cause that is a seriously screwy game for whoeevr ends up on the smaller island. Though I am also trying to master the art of scouting for holocrons and building up a decent fort at the same time. Apparently, I still have some work to do, seeing as I ended up with one holocron and Vostok had four. That makes a hell of a lot of difference.

Sithmaster_821 Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 Frosted-It was a year+ ago, so I dont remember names, but I never recall seeing yours. And I do plan to challenge someone in the near future, just haven't decided who yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Vostok Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 Clearly Frozted is scared that if he joins this ladder he won't be able to pretend he's the best player in the world anymore. Connemara - well the map was random, I didn't choose it. And although I got the bigger island, most of the Ore and Nova was on yours, that's why I built that base at the bottom of your island. I did have heaps of carbon though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sithmaster_821 Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 Doing pretty well Vostok: 2 for 2 I see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swphreak Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 M&Ms can't do worse than me... After seeing the scores, Connemara, me and you are having a match this weekend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clonedjedi Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 Well 1st of all I didn't say I'm the best player Vostok loves to talk the talk but can he walk the walk we shall see soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sithmaster_821 Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 MM's, I never said you were a bad player. I just cautioned you from assuming that you were better than people you've never played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clonedjedi Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 Well I didn't say to anyone that I was better than you all I said was I don't wanna sign up cause it would ruin your fun for the not so good guys who hardly ever play anymore.

Admiral Vostok Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 I don't care if you join or not Frozted. I'm not saying I'm the best player either but at least I don't go around thinking everyone else must be crap if they don't play on the Zone. Sith: 3 for 3 actually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swphreak Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 ... I don't wanna sign up cause it would ruin your fun for the not so good guys... that would be me... You know what, just join. No one cries if they lose, and I'm already losing so it won't bother me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connemara2100 Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 Yeah, dude, I'm already down two for two, my newbish fun is already spoilt. I am embarrassed at how low my score may go, but at least it is good expereince and all. StarWarsPhreak- my thoughts exaxtly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sithmaster_821 Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 Frosted-this aint a pro-ladder or a tourny. This is just a fun idea to reinvigorate the board. No one cares if they win or lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saberhagen Posted December 5, 2003 Author Share Posted December 5, 2003 Actually I asked Frozted to join because I thought he would almost certainly be able to beat me! Just about anyone in JMC can have me. If I keep winning no one will want to play me. And no, I'm nowhere near inter+. I'm inter on a good day, but I've been mostly playing in low inter games. I've only been playing for about 6 months, so old timers probabably wouldn't have seen me on anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clonedjedi Posted December 6, 2003 Share Posted December 6, 2003 Well I have news for ya I've left JMC and possibly going to DrUnK (if i stay with the game) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connemara2100 Posted December 6, 2003 Share Posted December 6, 2003 Meh, if you're inter, that must make me like, below rookie, lol. Oh well. If I could swallow my pride and go play a few games on he Zone for practice, I might get better. But in the mean time, I'm just building up my expereince from games on this ladder and against friends. And the sad thing is, for the most part, my friends suck. One of them makes me look like a pro. Kinda takes away the fun of the game, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saberhagen Posted December 6, 2003 Author Share Posted December 6, 2003 Read everything you can find on all the SWGB sites about strats. Skythe's FAQs at Heaven are particularly good, and there's more good stuff at MFO. Also download and watch recs of good players so you can learn from them. Whenever I get beaten by someone better than me, I don't mind as long as it's recorded, cos then I can see how to improve. The most important thing to remember is keep a constant food flow throughout T1 and make lots of workers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sithmaster_821 Posted December 6, 2003 Share Posted December 6, 2003 Never stop building workers. When it seems like you have enough, build more. Your command center(s) should be busy from t1 through t4 building workers. And build a lot of military buildings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourdad Posted December 7, 2003 Share Posted December 7, 2003 Yeah well you have to stop someday...when you've reached 200 workers I guess that can be enough:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clonedjedi Posted December 7, 2003 Share Posted December 7, 2003 Balance your resources evenly you should have about the same amount of carb as food ore and nova are different just collect all the stockpiles you see if you need more nova trade or get the holos.

swphreak Posted December 7, 2003 Share Posted December 7, 2003 I've been getting better with the workers. If I'm alive long enough, I eventually get like 60 or so workers. And big supply of Carbon and Food the most, then I work on Ore and Nova. Can I see some of yall's recorded games? Of the ladder matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clonedjedi Posted December 7, 2003 Share Posted December 7, 2003 If you plan on using nova units in the game i suggest you hit nova in t1 or early t2 same with ore if you wanna fort up hit that early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sithmaster_821 Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 Yeah, you want to balance your resources with their predicted use amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connemara2100 Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 I think I might have recorded one or both of the ladder games I played. I'd hafta check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Vostok Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 We're supposed to be recording all of them to avoid cheating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
