Either Doom discloses the wrong age or his statement was misleading. But thank you for pointing out the info.

well, I just played a terminator game with 4 other players who are corporal or less. I eliminated 3 of them but of course at the end I lost (stupid dick had Australia from the beginning of the game) and I end up net losing points.

f*ck low rank people

day 212

I have reached the rank of Major. I have not been a major in almost 5 years.

I have gained 1800 points in only 8 months. At this current rate, it will only take me 13 more months until I overtake random21 as the Conqueror of CC. Mark your calendars ladies and gentlemen, it's happening.

In order to gain points at your current level you will have to increase your win%... when you get close to the top your win % needs to be above 80%.

When I was at that level it might take me 20 games to win 100 points but I could very easily lose 100 points in just 1 game.

If you are at 4000 you will drop 60 points if you lose to a player with an average score but only take 6 points if you win.

This will be pretty tough especially when you don't believe in things like diplomacy.

yeah... with a 55% win rate, i find it difficult to get much further than 2100 pts... he will have to step this campaign up, as you said, and start hitting above 80%...-Jésus noir

If you take a snap shot of the timeline during my Conqueror run you will find that I had about a 85-90% win rate... but even so If I played 10 games and lost 1 of them I could still potentially lose points.

This is why you have to specialize in order to become Conqueror.

I had a very strict plan with very specific rules that I had to stick to in order to make it. This was extremely difficult, actually one of the hardest things that I've ever done. You pretty much can't play for fun.

My #1 rule was don't play any maps/settings that didn't give me an edge...

I played a lot of Feudal Freestyle, no spoils with adjacent forting. I won a lot of games because I knew those settings like the back of my hand and all of the tricks that went along with them. If my opponent wasn't familiar with those settings on that map, it was very easy for them to make mistakes... all it took was one mistake and they were toast.

it's about 1000x harder to go from 2000 to 3000 than it is to go from 1000 to 2000. I applaud your optimism and determination but I would bet against you making it. it's too hard.

This is why US counterparts are so fat.

Canada has oil and we have milkshakes.

Dude just learn a complex as f*ck map. Should take 10 minutes of graft, set up some 8 player freestyles about 30 and watch all day, you should make conqueror free about 300 providing games still fill on this site.

AOG stop playing Napoleonic wars on 1v1. That map isn't balanced enough for that type of gameplay. Try a different map, multiplayer or get premium and play it on poly. Even a tiny change as 'trench' might balance it out a bit more.
