El Chapo: lol
El Chapo: so, as you already know, I don't play bot games
Google: i have 15
El Chapo: minutes to start?
Google: been about 7 years since ive been out here
El Chapo: yep I see that
Google: 15 smurfs
El Chapo: lol nice
Google: bob muley too
El Chapo: King of Mule has quite the assortment
El Chapo: oh LOL
Google: fixed my connection somewhat
El Chapo: well then you have Bob's shitty internet connection issues
El Chapo: how?
El Chapo: wired now?
Google: usb tether with phoneoutside
El Chapo: nice
Google: oh no not wired
El Chapo: I doubt it will help but it's worth a try
Google: i wish
El Chapo: is phone able to charge while tethered?
El Chapo: its battery is gonna get roasted
Google: i think so
El Chapo: better check
El Chapo: would be an ugly way to get an abandon (dead phone battery)
Google: yep...its good
El Chapo: nice. hopefully it works
Google: i played a game already
El Chapo: Fluffy was very annoyed that we quit the second try earlier today, the one when you disconnected during first land grant
Google: no network timeout
Google: seems ok
El Chapo: Fluffy's favorite type of game is one with a bot
Google: yeah.....i felt bad
El Chapo: no worries
El Chapo: can't be helped
El Chapo: so C-128 and I just quit to abort the game (Fluffy: "I refuse to restar, I like this game")
El Chapo: lol
El Chapo: *restart
Google: lol
El Chapo: possibly the nastiest, most spiteful player on here (FF)
Google: i guess fluffy will always not like bob
El Chapo: loves to get a cheap win vs noobs
El Chapo: hard to say
El Chapo: FF has an extensive Do Not Play list, due to grudges only FF understands
Google: i should use a low ranking smurf against him
Google: i saw you have won 10 this week...nice
Google: when does it reset?
El Chapo: this ID started as my smurf for playing against the criminals, scumbags and perverts that play at night
El Chapo: but now it's my main
El Chapo: yes, ty. 10 wins means I have been busy
Google: still not many ppl out here
Google: even less than b4
El Chapo: yeah it's a slowly dying community
Google: weekends were normally better
El Chapo: was busier 10 years ago
El Chapo: yep
Google: yeah
El Chapo: could be due to holidays
Google: i use tobe one of those late night scumbag players
El Chapo: I would expect it to pick up around mid-January once all the "use my time more wisely" resolutions fall apart
Google: true
El Chapo: indeed, I was one 10 years ago and am now one again
El Chapo: that's just when there are the most games
El Chapo: works out well for us in the Pac Time Zone, too
Google: at night? huh
El Chapo: yeah
Google: yep
El Chapo: starting around 2-3 pm our time it gets busy
Google: ok...ty 4 tha
El Chapo: so if you prefer 4-player games as I do that's the time to check in
El Chapo: yw
Google: i do as well
Google: bots give the food and energy away
El Chapo: bot games: the "sex with a condom" of planet mule dot com
El Chapo: lol
El Chapo: yes
El Chapo: thats why the Cheap Win Collectors like them
El Chapo: ( FF, Cyber Ranger, Beswick Mining Co. )
Google: damn Mule prostitutes
Google: is CBASS still around?
El Chapo: if you develop your play style to "enslave" the bots to you, it makes you dependent on bots to win, eventually
El Chapo: I haven't seen CBASS in a long long time
Google: or the guy from New Zealand
Google: zdor
El Chapo: Gohar still plays some
Google: rodz
El Chapo: haven;t seen zdor or rodz either
Google: gohar..ok
Google: too bad
El Chapo: Acavia is around
Google: he was always out at night
El Chapo: ( very annoying player, Aca )
Google: dandydan
El Chapo: no dan either
Google: rhodan
El Chapo: lots of the Old Timers gone for many years now
El Chapo: Chuckie maintains the CCbot
Google: like you said its adieing community
Google: robots...right?
El Chapo: Cyber Ranger is very plugged in to the group via Facebook
El Chapo: which I don't use
El Chapo: but he can actually notify the bot (server) maintainers when something's going wrong
El Chapo: very handy to have a person like that who knows everyone
Google: are the bot hosts still run on virtual machines?
El Chapo: I last played before the bots existed so I don't know how the service works, but that makes sense
El Chapo: I only came back in the last 10 months or so
Google: i was playing when they startedd
El Chapo: prior to that my last game was in 2011
El Chapo: they're very good now
El Chapo: Landru is in NYC
Google: mine was 2012 feb
El Chapo: CCbot is in some place in Louisiana iirc
El Chapo: host4u is in Riverside, CA
Google: we must have played each other b4
El Chapo: so you & I will prefer host4u
Google: close
El Chapo: hard to say
Google: yep
El Chapo: I was doktorbuzzo then
El Chapo: that ID is retired
Google: dont reconize it
El Chapo: can't mix old stats (better game, ore-play days) with new (crystite crazies and lots of bots in games)
Google: i went thru the ranks and wrote all mine down .....lol 15
El Chapo: nice stats on them all, the 3 I know of
Google: the rank it gives us is all time wins
Google: not too fair imo
El Chapo: I think it might be skill points
El Chapo: there are a few different ranking numbers
Google: nope i was just there
Google: its all time wins
El Chapo: doesn't matter much to me, I go by win %
Google: im 28 rank but only have 71 aall time wins
Google: yeah thats how good u r
El Chapo: above 25% is acceptable, above 30% is good, above 35% is very good, above 40% is elite, above 45% is god-tier
Google: this is my best smurf by far
El Chapo: nice
El Chapo: great name, lol
Google: i should have just kept one player
El Chapo: eh
Google: oh well....late night scumbag i was
El Chapo: it's good sometimes to start fresh
El Chapo: kinda like a baseball season
Google: more like alll night for many nights back then
Google: yep
El Chapo: oh yeah it was great when there were so many Euro players, night time was alive
Google: yep
El Chapo: lots of fun with other players just jabbering in half-English
El Chapo: now, nothing doing at night
Google: glad the world speaks english too
El Chapo: basically from about 3 PM to 10PM is the action shift
Google: ok
El Chapo: Sunday can get busy too
Google: ok
El Chapo: Sat & Sun there are a few more shots at morning games
Google: weekly games won gets reset when?
El Chapo: oh that resets at 4 PM our time on Sundays
Google: ok
El Chapo: ( 5 PM during Daylight Savings time )
El Chapo: it's noon Sunday GMT
Google: you might have competition now
El Chapo: good
El Chapo: I like good players
Google: ...if my connection stays
Google: me too
El Chapo: check in tomorrow morning, early.
Google: i like to be schooled by the best
El Chapo: at about 6 a.m. Beswick and his dad play a game
El Chapo: I would love to join it IF there are 4 players
El Chapo: I owe those humps a few good thrashings
El Chapo: beware: Beswick and his Dad cooperate
Google: ok
Google: hate that i do
El Chapo: his Dad is EZ Street Mule PUB
Google: ok
El Chapo: EZ will bail out beswick with food & nrg when Bes gets into trouble
El Chapo: but won't sell to others in trouble
El Chapo: yeah I hate it too, it;s scummy
El Chapo: also beware: they also have lousy internet (lol)
Google: like me
Google: lol
El Chapo: but I think they sometimes disconect on purpose if they don't like a start
El Chapo: not sure about it but I have my suspicions
Google: i only did that once.....when all three ganged against me
El Chapo: as you can see, Beswick is just thumping his old man in 1 v 1 games with 2 bots all week this week
El Chapo: lol we've all d/c'd on purpose a few times
El Chapo: it happens
Google: do you still get a credit for winning like that?
El Chapo: yes
El Chapo: two players (real) make a legit tournament game
El Chapo: good reason to avoid a 1 v 1 if you're not certain of the character of your opponent
Google: yep
El Chapo: they can just d/c and waste all your time once they see they will lose
El Chapo: I did that to rAphax recently
El Chapo: he got the drop on me early in a 1 v 1
El Chapo: three connected highs
Google: so Chapo.......i could off load some merchandise for you if you wanna give me a chance...
Google: lol
El Chapo: lol
El Chapo: but I stayed with it and gave it my best try
Google: thats how you becomea better player
El Chapo: I only d/c'd because he started running a victory lap around the entire map after his rd 12 development phase
El Chapo: and I figured, that level of disrespect when his win was obvious the entire time, he gets the ziggy for that
El Chapo: he hasn't been back since
