13:40:41 - April 25th, 2012 You attacked the army rcbull66698 (rcbull) outside the home base of yome. You killed the army (14,194 troops). 59,771 attacking troops were killed

Man. You are unlucky in more than just DOND!

*edit: however after the update your ratio will be about 0.97-0.98, meaning that you must've had a LOT of good rolls also.

Luke, idk if there is anyway to change it, but wouldnt it make more sence if an army of 10k hp killed an army with 8k, rather then the 8k somehow winning and being down to 6k?
It seems like a bad system, that if you send more troops (trained to be better) that you can still lose?

I feel your pain Yome. I lost approx. 160,000 troops today versus my opponents approx. 45,000 in city attacks. Almost a 4-1 loss is a frustrating ratio. Even if all the other armies had max army improvements it should have been closer to 2-1 even on a bad day.

This has been an age old frustration here. Sometimes it is in your favor and sometimes it isnt. The question has always been how to make the ratios closer without needing a math wizard to give us a complicated algorithym...

But in real life and army of 10k doesn't always kill an army of 8k. Neither does it in the game risk for that matter ;).

Yet in the old version of gewar we had a 1:4 ratio cap. But if you check long-term ratios here, everyone stays within that total ratio(most are close to 1:1). It's frustrating when it works against you, but you don't hear many when it works for them.

In the future we might find a way to change the battles though.

Don't get me wrong, I don't blame anyone for this. In fact I like how attacking is a gamble... I have no solution for this and I don't know if there is one but gosh I'm so sick of this badluck...

It's been the story of my round.

Yes, I did get good ratios at times but they usually happened after I lost a huge battle.
For example: I attacked siye's 250k army with my 400k army and got raped. He ended up having still around 240k hp. Then I got a good ration against that army. But look how much I spent and how much he spent...

This is how the game works now with experience. Someone can have the same amount of troops killed in the rankings as someone who spent twice as much...

I'll be first again after today ONLY because I had a great start. However, I'm sure I spent way more money than the others who are close by. Yes, I made a **** load of geos this reset and I still think my troops killed should be much higher.

But luck obviously wasn't on my side for anything this round... For those who are not following my DOND games, I had 2 cases over 1k in my last 40 games.

Story of my round... Screw this ****!

the way I see it you have no idea if GOH has talked to them. Talking through you butt again I see.

You know what I see:

2 Players that really want Soul and are active everyday.
Doing great job trying too.


Peon really must you play the me me all the time.

Disclaimer: Talking as player not a Mod.

Peonboss

Yeah cause they magically knew they had joined that day. Never bothered to look at their forum I'd.

Glad your talking as a player not a mod blindly defending newby abuse because they are in your alliance cause that would look bad wouldn't it.

Yeah it was 3 btw. One already left. And just how does this benefit me? Oh you mean "me" as in the game itself.

Nothing worse than self serving posts. So deleting yours might not be a bad plan. I am attacking Vikings not you, and I don't know any of the new guys do not sure how it is all about me. But good default subject change.

Maybe we should have a welcome new-comers thread. A stickied thread that they must go to. Forced to make a post so we know they are ready to play. I don't have much guidance to offer but would surely offer them a start up city.

Cannot answer for card but have already asked as far as how we treat them.

But again Peon forgets to take note that card has only been with us for around a month, and to be honest never noticed the fighting over Soul.

New players that GOH has helped this round:

LeeMalvo attacked us early in the round and took him in

Stone boy blitz again attacked us early we took him in

legend41 planted in our area took him in * this is his 1st round playing I think ?

icwkev new guy attacked me last week gave him 2 cities and tried to help him understand things better. I think he wanted to join but with our wars not saving I did not invite.

So come on Skotty and Peon who have you helped ??? Skotty atleast has the stones to post offers to help. All Peon does is point a finger at anyone other then himself.

Come to think of it, pretty sure every new player I have noticed I have reached out for.

Nice, and seeing that GOH has 25 members I would expect at least 25 new members being helped. I dont care if GOH or any other alliance has to help 60 beginners, beginner must and will be helped in this game - losing a small point city will not hurt anyone.

Actually I took Milan for a beginner, but lost it when GOH attacked me (fair enough) but the beginner who was going to take the city was also attacked.


I am the last one who would stick up for peeoni, but when it comes down to attacking the beginners, I see red. Especially when we have threads running where everyone is recognising that beginners must be helped.

Gimme a city for long enough, and I will give it to a beginner.

Noone needs to take this personal, but this is a situation where the VETS must pay attention that we dont lose the beginners.

Peonboss
04-25-2012, 07:57 PM
Why do you always have to make things personal itchy. Make up for your sins elsewhere.

And I have helped so many people every turn, I tend to msg any new player i see.
Was trying to remember the list of people GOH had just stomped on i was saving, but frankly did not see how I could chastise them when I was fighting against them. It looks bad so I didnt bother.
I think rodson was one but I had a list of over 20 at one point.

But again, I had no interest in the battles today, but your automatic response when i post is to try and make it about me. Clean up your own group I will take care of my group.

But I am 100000% sure your alliance has attacked more brand new people that my alliance has. Would bet a million on it. In fact want to bet you can not find a single time anyone in my alliance has attacked a newby? Bets?

aravan
04-25-2012, 07:58 PM
To Peon's point this is why the beginning of a round needs a city occupied limit. Then no one would have to worry about "allowing" a new player to have a city. It is also why an automated system of communication needs to be in place to help a new player get started. Attacking Seoul on a daily basis is great fun, but it isnt going to get a new player anywhere. I would expect Seoul to be defended appropriately.

And I do not think it is fair to expect every new player to be befriended by the masses. It is a nice gesture and probably a good idea considering the number of active players, but should not be an expected necessity (thus the reason for an automated welcome system to help them get started). Re-hashing old topics over for now...

I think when people join they should NOT be able to leave the Training Alliance til they work through missions.

Missions
1. Post your name in the forums. This should be done automaticly so everyone can welcome new members.
2. Build army and take a city
3. Split an army in that city
4. After 1-week of being in Training Alliance either create your own or join an existing alliance. Then you should be ready.

Just some ideas...

skotty
04-25-2012, 08:02 PM
And I do not think it is fair to expect every new player to be befriended by the masses.

What would I expect from an alliance of VETS?

If a high point city is attacked, then send the beginner a pm stating you will take the city back, and offer them a smaller city to help them on their way.

If the beginner refuses or continues to attack - fair game.

Beginners do not need to be friends with everyone, but on the otherside there is also no need to take every city from a new player.

I thought this rule was pretty simple, its a rule BoB used.

No. I completely agree with you. But in 5 years of playing this game I've realized the behavior isnt going to change. And if the behavior isnt going to change then the system has to be in place to force the change...

Funny and here I was thinking more people would post if you did less posting and more your job, But that's just me speaking not as staff.

Yuo know I sent off two at least might have been 3 msgs long before I thought of posting this. Long before. Because I could amazingly see the attack log yesterday and keep up with what is going on with the game. hmmm who else is supposed to be doing that?

Just went and looked and the last one went like this
"Dont give up hope. But going after huge cities usually gets you creamed. Ask them for a few small ones to get started with. "
And that was not a welcome msg just a response to him getting creamed.

So how dare you, HOW DARE YOU! Tell anyone who actually tries to retain people in this game should "less posting and more action". Screw you.

You have went from someone who was fun to play with to a complete obsessed with winning jerk. When someone points out that MULTIPLE people you are allied with has just gang banged 3 new players in a row your response should not to be to tell anyone to do less, it should be to say you are sorry and get your house in order.

Skotty spends 90% of his time posting like he is drunk but he has way more credibility than you because at least he SOUNDS like he cares, you only sound like you want to cover things up and get people to stop talking about your alliance creaming every new player that gets a city.

You really should be ashamed and should have ALREADY sent a sorry msg to those three guys. And so should your little group of looser friends who only can dislike posts rather than take a stand on anything. Ashamed.

Oh and for the record I own a resource city.. The 2nd one I have owned so far today. Glad I am not playing. I just feel my bile rise and walk away... like so many others have... but you got your perfect 25-25 battle group... Shame 150 players had to leave the game so you could play just as you wanted.

That's a really good one cash. What about some kind of city sharing option for the city holder? The player who owns the city could have the option to allow one person to share the city with them. You could even split the value and geo's received from the city so the new player could learn and earn too.

There are a lot of possibilities that can be had with this. Like allowing another player to occupy with you so they can split their army's, or add more troops to it. All control would be dictated by the city owner.

Ok so far we've come to the conclusion that the ratios can make people quit(even though they are forgetting that many times they had the upper hand...but I can imagine that getting the bad odds is worse than good odds make you feel good).

And also that there might not be enough players helping newbies.

I'll think about the ratio. For new players we could do with an expanded score system. It's that famous chess-score system, in which attacking someone with a lower score will not get you much extra points(or none at all if he/she is much lower), attacking someone with the same score earns you points and attacking someone with a higher score earns you a lot of points. These points could add to a total score for income.

Again just an idea.

I actually pm'd all the members of CDA and told them going after Seoul isn't a very good idea and if they want a city they can head to any of mine.

They never replied and I find it strange that JeeHoonTyler joined on 21 April, attacked Seoul and 4 days later apkusm123 and Honey Bee pops up plants at Seoul and attacks it... A friend asking other friends to join the game to attack a city? Anyway they clearly just want to fight for Seoul and that I can do nothing about but I did try to help them with cities :)

There is no reason for GOH to constantly zero him.

Leave him a city. Or better leave him 100% alone and concentrate on your war with vikings, which you wanted, but do not seem to be able to handle.

So JW attacked rodson - a single player with a handfull of low value cities only because he had an alliance with 27 members to back him up?

What absolute trash. Go attack a viking.

Am I making IT?

Which alliance wants me - I want to make IT. I will be taking the role of forum spokesperson - don't say I did not warn you.YOU ARE A VETERAN PLAYER!!! WE ARE TALKING ABOUT NOOBS!!!

I get confused because moongoose calls me a noob.
And dont shout, I like that as much as I like 27 handbags attacking a single player for a handfull of cities.

But you are right we are talking about GOH noobs.

Seems to me rodson doesnt fit into the conversation with new players. Five months is long enough to understand what is going on. I have been zeroed daily by one big alliance or another since I have returned. It had been a couple of years since I had been here. Shouldnt someone be complaining about me getting zeroed? Or my alliance? (sarcasm)

I am all for helping out new players, but I think it needs to be done through the normal course of gameplay as a controlled part of the game and not because other players feel forced or obligated to help someone new. People who play are going to get zeroed. It happens. It is part of learning to play the game and part of the everyday life of the game...

I would not call Rodson at this moment a vet, and its still a disgrace to see that GOH steamrolls him again and again.

So watch out for anyone who zeros a beginner or steamrolls a single player. Im watching.

Yomei and Peeoni may rhyme but they don't mix. Since many rounds ago they're kinda like the GEWar equivalent of oil and water!

And in case you're wondering, if I was to fairly assess them and ignore all the BS talk - Yome is the more talented player, however Peon is more consistent - that said, when pushed to put my troops where my mouth was (that's what she said! haha), I'd always support Yome on the battlefield if choosing a side, disregarding alliance affiliation an' all!

Wow. Could not disagree more. I'm not even close to consistent anymore since I don't really play.
But moreover please never use Yome as a comparison. I played for fun, he has to win and will and has gone to any end too. Huge difference. He also even winning this round is about 7 wins behind me.

I was talking about when you both are playing, rather than when you're not.

But moreover please never use Yome as a comparison. I played for fun, he has to win and will and has gone to any end too. Huge difference. He also even winning this round is about 7 wins behind me.

Granted, Yome isn't perfect, however as I've often said then he never claims to be either. Time to let by-gones be by-gones in my opinion. If Yome should ever repeat his previous misguided actions, I'll be the first to withdraw my support for him and admit I was wrong - until then though, I'm more than happy to give him a second chance and see the good that a player of his style brings to the game!

What does GM have to do with it? Games Master only creates some official games for geos in that subforum so you can have some more fun.

I'm again trying to make sure there is no confusion between an administrator and a Games Master, SJ. You are an Administrator. Games Master is a Games Master, and he does the official games for geos subforum.

Might sound childish, but in the past some users got so confused of people calling the admins 'Games Masters' that they PM'ed him private info that should've been PM'ed to administrators.

Sounds more like a Darwinian natural selection issue to me. Anyone making that mistake when a list of admins is so easily available deserves to have their information exploited to the full - it's the only way they'll learn haha.

Yup, I think that's probably what they mean when talking about GM but like Luke said they also think Games Master got privileges because why would they pm him with info on players.

GM,im sure Game Master, is a widely powerful role in a game,in Chinese is 游戏管理员,he/her USUALLY maintains orders,serve the players,records irregularities, guide right the behavior of the online the player's to carried out the the correct propaganda,,,,,make some games like "games for geos",,,,,,,,so it is the gewar that who Greatly narrowed the scope of GM!

but it is nothing now,what we mean GM what you GM/Admin have known clearly,that's it.
not any compaint or confusion,,
ya,cash said very nice,maybe the GM can spells as General Manager.

Luke
05-22-2012, 04:01 PM
But here we made clear Games Master is a name, not a function. Who only does official games for geos. I say this again so players dont PM private info.

This is because here the name Games Master means something different.

Starbuck
05-22-2012, 04:12 PM
It's been said so many times, can't be that difficult to understand that in GEWar a GM = Games Master and the name in this case says it all... The person who is Games Master is here to entertain with games and that's it!

Yes but gewar is a game. So a game master would be master of the game.

The rational makes sense when you remember diff culture and literal.

Peonboss: But 'master of the game' sounds weird. Is that just me?

Just say it out loud and hear how it sounds:
"Who is the master of this game?"
- "Well that would be Luke. He is the Master of Gewar".

Doesn't sound right. It sounds more like the one who would be on the nr1 spot in the rankings than the owner of the game.
"That guy is a master in gewar. He's always at the top spot."

Sounds better than game owner to me.

But my point is that I keep on repeating who Games Master is in this game, yet still there were players that have been here longer that think that that account is the owner(or some think it is me with another account). And that is where it can go wrong when something private or critical is PM'ed to that account instead of me.

Why in the hell are we discussing this? This is not only stupid, but a waste of time. GamesMaster has been for some time now, and if people are confused about it, even after they are told the explanation then let darwin take care of them, or perhaps a few nukes.
