Plenty of us one trick ponies moved to DE thank you very much.
Unless theres WK-DE, otherwise becoming a gameranger-ish platform for casual players playing a game or two due to childhood nostalgia is inevitable I believe.You know I'm not even saying that you are wrong, but given how your Voobly profile says that you were last online on 18th of November last year, making any statements about current state of Voobly while preceding it with "to sum it up" is slightly weird.
I did play a few games on Voobly during last few months and I still check lobbies every now and then. It's undeniably true that most of the 1600-2700 community, especially from EU/NA regions, has moved to DE, but trying to predict any imminent doom of Voobly or comparing it to GameRanger is still incredibly unfair

This is like saying facebook would never become myspace / myspace would never become xanga becoz of having more features 1111111Voobly will never become a GameRanger-ish platform, because Voobly has player ELOs, profiles, various ladders, spectating and such which GR doesn't.
I know that from our cozy perspective it's nice to say that its only top 2% of players that really matter but that's very much false(and elitist at that).Average skill in top percentiles on Voobly did, obviously, drop heavily after DE's release, but there are still a shitton of players on Voobly that are great players in the grand scheme of AoE2, and the average skill on Voobly definitely remains far above average skill on DE.
I'm genuinely unsure as to what would be that thing that turns Voobly into a GameRanger-ish platform.
I logged in on other account couple of times and since the best room around was always some clown BF room with Locus and since Alive could make +30 streak in 1v1 I would say that pretty much all the competition is gone. Perhaps NPL is active and perhaps some south americans are playing in different timezone because they don't have the specs to run DE but that was my impression.You know I'm not even saying that you are wrong, but given how your Voobly profile says that you were last online on 18th of November last year, making any statements about current state of Voobly while preceding it with "to sum it up" is slightly weird.

First of all I did apologize plz read also me and lb10 are boys it like the same thing between jonslow and dark noob so if your not sure what your talking about plz don’t comment.Besides the fact you keep quoting Terror, and situation that literally does not apply to you in the slightest, as it was between to friends teasing eachother (Have you ever even watched Terror before?), your first line of defense is "Mom, look he also did the bad thing, punish him!". That's middle school man. You can't even properly take responsibility, your apology is so half-assed and with bunch of excuses. Your behavior in games you play does not help your case either.
EDIT: Just imagine you saying "Sorry, I was a ****head, I won't do it again, was not thinking properly at the time" or something along those lines, I think that would've been it.
Mate... Ah nvm...First of all I did apologize plz read also me and lb10 are boys it like the same thing between jonslow and dark noob so if your not sure what your talking about plz don’t comment.

reformedluca? 1111Okay I believe that if everyone here could go back in time and look our former teenage self, cringe would be the gentler emotion we would feel. Luca I know you feel the world is against you right now, or that we all are a bunch of haters. Thats not the case, though there was indeed some flame above. Your best bet would be to refrain from streaming and move away from the keyboard for a couple of days to let the dust settle and see things more clearly. I believe you are one of Hera's mods, talk to him. For me he is the most collected and mature person for his age and he had some similar issues one or two years ago, which he owned up to. I'm sure he will give you the right advice.
This might seem patronising of me, I assure you this is not my intention. All the best to you man.
Thanks for your opinion il keep it in mind but it not even a big deal people like making drama out of nothing . Like honestly without being selfish or anything I don’t see any problem and we are all wasting our time on this thread. Just saying if one dodges 1 game and others dodges 100 games don’t come crying on the 1 that dodge 1 game even if u think his reason isn’t valid thx and have a nice day. Also @robo just stand up to your actions when you say your gonna do something. At your age you can’t be the boy who cried wolf.Okay I believe that if everyone here could go back in time and look our former teenage self, cringe would be the gentler emotion we would feel.

Dunno how people are saying there is no lag in de. It's better lag in de for me but I will oftentimes get no response and then a ridiculously sped up game for 10-20s. In tgs in late game it's also pretty regularly choppy. No lag is a silly way to put that!I logged in on other account couple of times and since the best room around was always some clown BF room with Locus and since Alive could make +30 streak in 1v1 I would say that pretty much all the competition is gone.

I am not saying it is the imminent doom but it just feels like a matter of the time. On DE you have all the tournaments, you have no lag/delay due to servers and you can play a variety of maps. Despite some bugs the game is getting more stable with each patch and the last patch was again a huge step in the right direction.
My opinion is it's relatively rare for this to happen.Just curious.
What's people opinion on dodging a smurf?
Lets say a top 10 player starts a new account at the same time there's an event for people around top 100. As he is climbing he gets one person four times in a row that person falls from rank 75 to 110.
I wouldn't consider those games fair matchmaking for anyone and the person who got unlucky to could have been screwed out of participating in an event by randomness.
I know who he is, and if I told you, both you and dracont would think "who dat." Just cuz you got beat by a player you don't know doesn't mean it's a top 25 Smurf luuuulMy opinion is it's relatively rare for this to happen.
I've faced in team games dogao smurf, and recently in 1v1 a guy called "thewiper" or something. This thewiper beat me and I checked later, he was -200 elo or so from me but had a 20-0 or 21-0 record. Smurf confirmed. My honest opinion is that it's rare enough, though, that you kinda just have to "take your lumps" as they say
LolI know who he is, and if I told you, both you and dracont would think "who dat." Just cuz you got beat by a player you don't know doesn't mean it's a top 25 Smurf luuuul
I'm sure he's a new player who is extraordinarily quick at learning games.I know who he is, and if I told you, both you and dracont would think "who dat." Just cuz you got beat by a player you don't know doesn't mean it's a top 25 Smurf luuuul
Opt in vs Opt out.. meaning, you let players check the boxes of maps they are willing to play instead of forcing them to ban 4 maps they hate and hope they get one they like out of the remaining 5.
Different maps on CSGO require similar skill set, thats not the case for aoe maps tho.For everyone, what Spring is suggesting is exactly how matchmaking works in CS:GO. Its great to have the option to play on maps you like rather than being forced to play on maps you dont like.
Different maps on CSGO require similar skill set
As someone that plays a lot of csgo I can tell you that different maps definitely require different skill sets. Even on the same map but a different side or site can already be significantly different.Different maps on CSGO require similar skill set, thats not the case for aoe maps tho.
