Battles, Yes or no - Science Fiction Fantasy Chronicles: forums

System Lord Gypsy · 3rd April 2002, 01:36 AM

This is a chance for all those who don't want to battle to let it be known. I have created this thread so that all those who don't want to battle, or do can let it be known and those who read the thread at least will know whether to ask you for a battle or not.

I would like to try the battles but can only the beginners with little or no items please ask me for one? (giggles) No? Well, me no wanna lose all me stuff to a pro ya know! (giggles) Gypsy, you battle me and let me win so that I know what I am doing, ok? No??? Mickey, how about you? No?!?!? ChinaCat???? You??? Ok, where is the support system? (giggles) :rolly2:

Seriously though, if I have time I would like to try the battles. It sounds like a lot of fun, but I have never done one, so be gentle!

:kisses: :lol: :rain: :twirl: :freak4:

PTeppic · 3rd April 2002, 06:59 AM

Same as Ellen. I have (currently) no intention of really getting into battles the same way as several people round here seem to want to go. But one or two "little" skirmishes, almost in a friendly way, just to "see how it works" type thing.

Problem is of course, as I understand it, if you try to have a friendly little scrap with too many points on one side, would be like a "little" sparring with Mike Tyson. SPLAT.

System Lord Gypsy · 3rd April 2002, 11:01 AM

Well, Personally am going to be battling and anyone is welcome to ask me, provided it's not someone my alliance has a treay with.
Guess I won't be battling You 2. I think it would be a bit one sided if you guys are unsure of them.

Very funny, PTeppic! lol I think that I will be staying away from battles myself! Too many points at risk for someone that knows nothing about the battles! Don't think it would be pretty to see a grown woman cry her eyes out over a game! (giggles) Now, if there is a way to battle without risking points, I might do that, once!

This is wonderful. There are others out there who feel the way I do! I'm not alone.

I don't really want to get into the battles .... at least, not at this stage ... maybe down the track a ways ... And it is pretty much for the same reason - loss of hard won points. Damn, but I cry when I get a question wrong and miss on a couple of points so I don't know what kind of mess I'd be in if I lost a whole heap of points.

I don't think I want to find out either

Status · 4th April 2002, 07:44 PM

I'm in total agreement with Cat and Mickey Doll. I get upset when I didn't get a question marked and loose a point. Can you imagine what would happen when (not if) I were to loose in a battle :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:

Think I'll just stick to my training that I feel comfortable with

PTeppic · 4th April 2002, 10:13 PM

As a question to those who have battled before...

Take for example two people who jsut want to battle a little, but who've never done it before. But they both have, say, 650+ skill and 100k experience, and 100% weapons... etc...

Is it going to get messy?

System Lord Gypsy · 5th April 2002, 12:34 AM

LOL. It could, but first you have to find the guy you want to kill. I forget what the point losses and gains were but when I last battled noone was really on enough points to make much of a difference. Now a lot of us are on higher points I would imagine it could get quite messy. It's a fun mess though <g>

littlecrow · 5th April 2002, 02:37 AM

Question, do you get to choose how many points you lose or gain or is there a standered like 1% of your over al knowledge, exspirence at stake for battling? If that is what make people leary about battling maybe they should be alowed to chose the amout that they are risking like taking a site exam?

What is the low down on it all is what I'm asking.

mhw_christian · 5th April 2002, 10:10 AM

Go check out the Yahoo Group for the ARA my Alliance Commanders, I have offered my services there as a trainer, and would be glad to show you how to battle.....

Regards,

MHW

GOD BLESS

Probably an Ion cannon. I've heard that if the other person has one you might as well give up.

BC Rommie :D · 6th April 2002, 09:56 AM
