I find it ironic that the boy who was whining about a video game a few posts ago is suddenly trying to take the high road and pretend he's something he clearly is not.

Besides I find that most mature people in life don't often find the need to tell others to grow up. More food for thought.

Can't really get behind someone who didn't know the name of the person who was commanding the game they were in.
And while Vogue's application to the Diplomacy Corps may have been denied, he has a pretty keen eye when looking at a persons' game performance.

I rate you around 104 and your posts here are exactly why and Vogue's post is exactly why. You're the kind of 18 who gets by on a bit of aiming skill and a long stretch of actual good players' inactivity. Every time I've had you on my team you're one of those players I can almost always count on to not be where I want him to be at any particular stage of the game. Unfortunately unlike players like 104 who, with more micromanagement than I enjoy, can be moved to be in the correct place at approximately the correct time, you don't want to be micromanaged like that. Which means I'm stuck with a whore who's only half as talented as Frobo or Djole.

I'm not saying this to be rude, I'm saying it because you seem to have wanted an honest assessment of your skills.
Well, if you think so... I know how I got 18 and it was not, like vogue thinks. You can just check my stats and you should figure it out... And if you really think I am that useless, wel, I take it. It's your opinion.
Also, I don't take your opinion very seriously bcos, if you can't understand what I wanted to assess (the game not my skills), your assessment can't be very good. I will take it, when you stop being pissed on me for criticism.

I just wanted to see how others saw that game and you liked that so, I am ok with that. I just don't get why are people always so touchy or offensive. I thought there are adults, guess I was wrong. (again obviously :) )
If you don't think that I, shortly after the game (I went to a bar to watch some football and have lunch), came back and spoke to Vogue and Drizzo separately and asked what I did wrong and needed to do better then you're out of your mind.

I didn't ask you because I don't respect your opinion on the matter. In my mind to take criticism from you is to take criticism from Jaca, Tenforward, Starfire, or any other player who's repeatedly demonstrated little or no knowledge of how Allegiance works. You don't pay attention, and therefore, you don't get to complain that I wasn't clear. You didn't even know who was commanding yet you want to try and claim I wasn't clear enough? That makes me feel like even if I was clear enough you wouldn't have paid attention anyways.

Both Vogue and Drizzo were critical of my decision to mine high early. That was the bulk of their comments. I concede that it would have been wiser to mine safer sectors at that point, and also feel as if I should have purchased enh miners at some point. Importantly, Vogue is not the kind of person to pull his punches. If he thought I had been really unclear as to what the team needed to be doing he would have told me so in no uncertain terms. I am also critical of my own decision to try and Spidey an IC con low. I would have been wiser to bring 2/3 other pilots with me.

TA, Vanca's name is also in his avatar ;)

PT TL/DR:

Your criticism was read and rejected as being irrelevant.

If you guys would like to criticize my commanding I made a mistake and wasted 3k creds on a refinery for a sector I had already mined out, and I didn't give more notice that we were launching cruisers to end the game so that the destroyers could move into the sector as well.

Even though the recording starts at 20 minutes into the game, it's also a fairly good example of how to run an economy. My staple 1 protect 3 mining chain is on display and I rake in oodles of cash using a faction with mediocre mining stats.

I'm going to record more games from my perspective and add them all to ACS as examples on how to run economies since that's usually a commanders weakest point. I'm sure even in the games xexy has lost, you guys have wondered just where the $#@! we had money to afford some of the things we had.
