RE: Recent fights

s`ok for me now :)

RE: Recent fights

Thought I was the only one going mad ... but yeah, you`re right :/

RE: what happened to my challenges???

Mine says -1, I have 4 outstanding from today and one from the 14th Feb. Weird!

RE: I`m giving away ALL 10 of my challenges to the first 10 replies - HURRY!

YAY! Lasted the distance! But well done for winning (wasn`t difficult was it?)

My blagging paid off ... so proud!

Cheers again, and enjoy the sunniness(ish) of wherever it is you`re going :D

Busy busy busy

Poor old server :(

RE: I`m giving away ALL 10 of my challenges to the first 10 replies - HURRY!

Now have I counted correctly? Am I tenth or eleventh?
Can I blag another one?
:D

RE: Yet another Challenge Giveaway! First 2 to reply gets a challenge!

Luck!?? Poor fartface returns didn`t stand a chance. But it was funny :)

RE: What, afraid I may win, or just do as you and try to get xp???

They refused me too. They`d probably have won easily, too. Wonder why they don`t want to get an easy high XP win....?

RE: Yet another Challenge Giveaway! First 2 to reply gets a challenge!

Well I`m the third to reply, but I just hope Phil can`t count..............

RE: "View League" button

Oh yeah. Forgot about that :)

Fair point.

"View League" button

Can I suggest something?

Is it possible to get the View League button to go directly to the page that shows your gremlin`s position in the league?

What do people think about this idea?

But surely if everyone`s hanging around at 12am anyway waiting for the "tick" it`s not quiet??

Or do you mean "quiet" as far as database updates are concerned (which I guess it would be)?

RE: Fight me

Today is tomorrow. BRING IT ON!

When recieving challenges, it seems the higher the first number, the better for you.


Wot he said.
When you challenge people, it`s fine. When people challenge you, it`s the wrong way round. Honest!

RE: Fight Odds

Quote:
The odds are always of you winning, not them


Hmm, so why is it, when I get challenged and click on the odds, that it gives really good odds (eg: 0.27 : 1), but I always lose badly?

But when it gives odds like these on people I`ve challenged then I win comfortably?

Bit odd if both mean I`m likely to win easily...

(but then again I`m not actually taking any notice of the odds as I think it takes the fun out of it!)

RE: Fight Odds

> Is it calculating the odds of the challenger winning, rather than the odds that your gremlin will win

Think you might be right. That`s why some of my odds for challenges I`ve accepted are a bit wonky :)

I think you both got 23 XP as nobody was knocked out, and you won the same amount of rounds... so you get the same pointage...

(but I`ve only quickly skimmed the changes rather than take them all in carefully like most of you here!)

RE: Arrrgghhhh Why do people create new Gremlins and then not fight them?

Challenge me whenever you want ... I`m desperate for it (so to speak)

RE: Fight Odds

Me too :)

RE: Yet another call for challengers - anyone interested?

Class ... absolute class!
Very funny :D

You forgot to mention that your potential customer`s gremlin`s position in the league table can go down as well as up and fast XP return is not guaranteed. Also past fight performance is not necessarily a guide to future performance and may have been achieved in a favourable XPconomic period which might not be repeated.

You may also wish to remind everyone that if you accept a challenge from a superior gremlin in the early years, you may not get back the XP you invested.

Anyway, pity I`ve used up all my challenges today :)
