1. MSM talks shit but he's a character that we need more of to keep this game interesting and he doesn't quit and is very fair in the way he plays
2. his advice/comments may be at times misleading but who gives a fuck ! - as much as we like to play and get a long we all want to win.. if MSM likes to give false leads then good luck to him if others follow his advice
3. you are pussies if you let him get under your skin
4. don't go anywhere MSM! - you're a bit of fun and don't take yourself too seriously....

light bulb moment for me ! - I just realised how Henkos got to 26th ranked....thanks for the insight SJ !
 

Great idea SJ ! - not sure who collects and distributes the cash but I love the concept.... Count me in !!

Why aren't abandon rates taken into account toward an individuals ranking? To create a disincentive to those players that like to quit when it is evident that they are not going to win that game.... This may assist in games being finished by all players and stop serial quitters (such as Gohar) from amassing high rankings and being regarded by the uninitiated as a Mule God ! Is this something that could be considered?

It takes many games to understand some of the etiquette involved with MULE. These things don't always make sense to the uninitiated so some patience with newer players is needed. Mulesballs never quits ! He is a fair player and I find him to be a bit of fun and a character that shares a few laughs whilst playing. Unfortunately there are a few other experienced players that know better and quit when things aren't going there way. Gohar is one of these. After another bad experience today with Gohar quitting in rd 10 I will never be playing him again.

3. you could also send her out to work while you 'work' from home - mining ore all day aint easy

a tournament is a great idea ! - but not monetary linked to time spent on the game

i'm not sure of the rationale behind the paranoia but atari is definately onto something here... i mean when a plot is chosen bottom left two in with no mountains and it is a high then it could be a fluke... but when the next choice is top left 3 in no mountains and thats a high as well (with no assay to predict) then i say there is some truth to ataris assertions... the player i'm thinking of either has incredible intuition or has an extra tool in the kit

how about FELCHING?  a term that many MULE players would know and embrace in their daily lives

2nd round plot loss and won... !! yay - is this the bit where we all stand round and talk about how good we are?... cmon- we all know who the best players are - they tell each other all the time; i can read as well as you and the we all know the best players dont waste their time reading or writing this shit- they are actually playing.. - which incidentally is getting harder and harder to do with less people in the lobby and more and more of those starting and not finishing- What is the real future of MULE? - is there one? - is this a new thread? - maybe it should be -----

can this post be deleted??- its old, incriminates me and is no longer relevant..?

love the idea of selecting plots for your opponents...... great suggestion! - anyone know how we can get influence the decision makers? - do we need to signa petition?

Acavia- that is bullshit and you know it but I guess your reputation speaks for itself... let those who know you judge for themselves

just to clarify - i did request the restart in round 10 but it was purely in jest; i did not expect juffos to actually restart the game. In hindsight i shouldnt have even suggested this as it then becomes out of my control. I explained this to kk after the game but he wasnt interested which is fair enough i spose. I am renowned for finishing games not quitting them- have a look at my abandon rate; it is one of the best out there !! - kk; i apologise once again... this was a one off and it isn't my style ! - i don't know juffos and can't speak on behalf of his intentions

Would have a lot more chance of raising the cash if more experienced players helped out new players when they first have a crack at MULE and actually try to mentor them to become better players rather than shit on them from day one. Too much abuse from these same players when a less experienced player (like me) tries something different during the game - it doesnt mean this is collusion against then or collusion with anothe player - EGOs are far too big from the few that think they are speaking on behalf of the rest of us that love this game... Do you remember playing this game 25 years ago on c64 with 3 of your mates- everyone was trying to win, and that often meant taking an opposite position to the person that was likely to win. That isnt collusion or sabotage- thats MULE.... and often when this doesnt pay off- you come in last. Get over the BS fellas and embrace everyone that plays !- Inclusion will raise the $$$ ; exclusion wont !
