What if they were DANGEROUS asteroids? They're notorious for eating TP2 and podding noobs... :P

Don't forget to add that the pilots that are trying and are in the right place at the right time are always the first to get booted by the countless voob commanders we have in PuGs!

D'oh

It wasn't a troll, you actually suck at the game and therefore should not be antistacking, because its impossible to antistack if you suck.

lol@your are the noob though.

LIES

I join teams because I know who is playing. If it just so happens that they are all high rank, because they all happen to be COMPETENT whose fault is that? Mine for wanting to play with people who don't need help finding their own ass?
As someone who pretty much does the same thing I am curious if you are seeing the same trend I have been seeing. The distribution of top notch pilots (whether their rank is 12 or 24) is pretty decent these days. I am finding that its the imbalance in the new player distribution, voobs, and the competent solid but not game changing players that determine what the "real stack" is.

Or in other words if we arbitrarily grouped pilots into 4 tiers of skill, tier 1 has been pretty decent at spacing themselves out lately and the tier 2-4 distribution determines which team is stronger.

I've noticed that the team-work is heavily influenced by how many idiotic voobs are on your team. You can have 3 or 4 great players with you, but all their work is offset by the 6 or 7 other mindless fools on the team flying in circles, all launching in figs when you need JUST ONE NAN etc.

Which is why I'll boot people who are moronic just to get people half competent. It has nothing to do with STACKING and everything to do with team stupidity vs. winning.

I've stacked so hard it's not even on this poll as an option. About as hard as Brood in a room filled with naked Spideys!

The only exception to this is when you're Belters, because people must launch useless ships and belters figs can carry nans. So most people just sit in base when you need the one nan, leaving me flummoxed as to why they joined the game in the first place.

Like I said before, I need to find your teams more often and fly for you.
