I played a new strategy last week and gave it another try this week - doubling last week's score and finishing in top 10. I should probably be investigated, too, because I clearly admitted on at least two threads that I didn't know what in the hell I was doing.
This reminds me of football when the losing team gets pissed at the winning team for scoring too many points. It is not the winning team's place to stop scoring, but the losing team's place to play better defense. Same for us here. Instead of being critical of those who win, we need to raise our game. Hell, out cheat the cheater if that is what the winner is doing.
Also as in sports, especially in auto sports, a team or driver is disliked if they win too much, and they are disliked if they lose too much. That is seen often here. How many times are noobs criticized for being noobs? How much grief was Celphi, or whatever his name was, given for asking questions in his quest to play differently than the norm?
In the year-plus I have been playing, I have seen several different players get flamed. When I figure out how to win, and do it consistently enough that people are asking me to explain myself, it won't happen. I don't explain myself in the real world. CX, ebert, h2o, Alin, others, are crazy, IMO, to spend the time they do explaining their scores when challenged.
Love me, hate me, suicide me, I don't care. I'm just being honest. It's a freaking game and we are a bunch of old people playing it.
