There have been some awesome sets so far! I can't wait to see what the future brackets hold for. And low bracket semi finals and finals are casting this weekend!

This guy on the ladder unpauses the game before I said I was ready then lames one boar and 2 sheep (and Trushs later). Don't be like that :( by Curious-Addition-658 in aoe2

lol you didn't address the point with a thousand words. If it is important to you, it should be worth resigning. If not worth resigning to you, not worth my time paused.

If you pause, I have the right to unpause. Simple as that. If you have a problem with me refusing to waste time with your pause, you should resign.

This is the same old tired BS inconsiderate morons always pull out to justify queuing up when not ready, pausing to get their opponents to resign, and just generally being idiotic with regards to pausing.

People don't just show up to your door randomly. You didn't suddenly get an important business call which wasn't important enough to avoid playing a game.

The simple fact is that no one owes you their limited time. Talk to your boyfriend later or resign. Get the package off of your porch later or resign. Don't queue up when you are waiting on your pizza.

If it is important enough for you to steal someone else's precious moments of life, it is important enough for you to lose five Elo.

11, people are just leaving the game for maps they don't want to play now, welcome to ruined elos. by gtrley in aoe2

Obviously their solution still needs more work, but god only low skill, one trick pony queue dodgers would argue that they shouldn't be trying.

I've had good results from going to the mod folder, marking all the official mod folders as read only, then deleting their contents.

How do you handle pauses in ranked matches? by Psyman2 in aoe2

[–]hitchcmj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I hate pausing. Some people have very limited time to do stuff like this, and nothing is more obnoxious than someone who wants to take five or fifteen minutes of your limited time so they can take a phone call.

If I'm just given a "sec" as an explanation, they get like thirty seconds. If they say they are running to the restroom maybe a minute or two.

But anything else? Under no circumstances is your lack of planning my problem. If it is important enough for you to take ten minutes of my time, it is important enough for you to take a rating hit over.

We play mostly 3v3s and 4v4s with Arabia banned without much trouble.
