Never play when you're tired

[ilia]

I went from 1437 to 1352 in one week. All b/c I was playing after I having a very long ang tiring day.

I'll now auto only on wednesdays and sundays when I am home in the afternoon.

:-\

Good idea. I have that same problem.

Agreed. Your rating improves when you play 100%,at your best. Then limits are stretched and u can think clearly...as to what u did wrong :P

[Chance]

Yes but i usually have a few warm up games be4

Ive recently switched to SMs:

Things that kill me:

My own over agressiveness - running into a turtling-in-cover enemy sitting there with a force which is a bit less than his.

Orks

More orks

The fact that its often hard to know where did I just send my scouts, causing them to get killed

Fallen City - hate that map.


Anyway, I gotta raise my score.. ;)

I guess when someone isn't in their top form, its always best to play unranked games (GC2) or let things go on auto-pilot. Its a shame to see a consistently good performance being pulled down because of a few off days.

By the way did ya say high settings demon. Some monitors cannot handle high resolutions very well, my 17 inch LG flatron can do well over 1024*768 (75Hz seems the safest) but whenever i go past that treshold, i usually end up with a splitting headache (this monitor is supposed to be the best performer of its class, but that doesn't seem to help)

Yeah i did that too ilia. one night after a rough day at work, i went from 1323 to 1252, each game i just got more and more tired and pissed and played worse and worse -.-

Well, Ive decided not to auto until the next patch w/ the ladder reset.

Guard rushes, scout rushes, ork rushes, chaos rushes, all these rushes are too much. Especially the first two. I cant allow myself to limit my gaming experience to countering rushes of all sorts. That is just boring not to mention lame.

[TaiNteD]

Welcome to the world of DoW Ilia! :thumbup But on the better note, the patch is coming out soon, I have heard from some very reliable resources that the patch will be out soon. (Don't want to give exact date because this is rather public and all, dun wanna' get sued :P ) And I've promised myself that I wouldn't auto until then. And the 1.3 patch has rumors of bringing a ladder reset. *Shrugs* It's soooo nice having a family member who has friends that work for relic. :D

[ilia]

lol I went from 1437 to 1300.

Now that is a downfall I wont be able to compensate unless the ladder is reset. 8-)

[TaiNteD]

Don't feel bad. Santiago4ever stole 53 points from me in one day. :(

[Blueviper]

heh Ilia I know what you mean...WTF IS UP WITH MY SIG WTF!!

I have 1347 now!! Fuck I dont like playing more than 2 games one day cuz if I keep going my micro goes to hell and I start losing like I'm a newb. not that Im not not newb just that I play like worse than my usual L337 1v1 skilz pwnage you diea yeah

oh yeah.....if you play 1 game and lose it go for another one. If you win that one and went above your piror score STOP there. If you lose both games you'll be tempted as fuck and pissed to play more and there go your points out the fawkin window.
/edit

SO KNOW WHEN TO QUIT!



Fix my fawking sig
