Played every day, spent iron item on refills daily, etc. I rarely refresh my list, as I like the free sands.
All this time I've been pretty happy/impressed with my skillz in PvP, considering the 5* players that I don't have (no Prisoner, no Troll, no CG, no Bats, and I'd rather remove a ball with a rusty fork than use Mummy, etc.) -- only to realize that both my win % and defense % are abysmal, and should realistically land me in the bottom 10% of players who have been playing as long as I have. I only achieved my rank due to not getting attacked -- and by refilling a shit load of SoW -- which really deflates some of the good feelings/fun I am having. FWIW, I feel bad that I just got lucky, while some of you, who are by far superior players, got bent over. It's like Obama's left leg; it ain't right.
Some other thoughts (assuming you all care):
Don't nerf the Prisoner, GRE, the taunters, stunners, etc. I've had more fun in the last two weeks trying to figure out how to beat those bitches with my "standard" teams than I've had in the last six months combined. Every toon has a counter, and as evidenced by my %'s above, I've yet to figure most of them out -- but I HAVE figured out a few. Do they work every time? Nope, but thinking about different ways, testing them, and then actually having some success (even if it is 1 win out of 10 -- it sure beats 0 out of 10) is uber-gratifying to me. My wife knows when I've made a breakthrough of some kind (like beating a team that has smoked me 4 or 5 times in a row -- you guys know who you are; hooray for easy def. points!) because I can't contain myself and usually bellow out something childish and crude -- usually having to do with ass-rape in the prison yard, the terms "dick hole," "pooh-finger," and/or "FEAR MY SCHMEB!" or ingesting/biting/sniffing horse balls, my schweaty anus, or GMAC's taint. 😱
The point is, nerfs are lame. Don't let the game beat you; you're better than that! Figure that shit out and quit whining! (and learn how to spell "lose" -- your failure to grasp 3rd grade spelling concepts, combined with your incessant bitching, only makes you look durka-durk.)
Also, I don't understand the whole "root for your trooper" mentality here. Sure, maybe if this were an MMORPG where we actually got to know folks, that might be something -- but, seriously, I don't get it. If you're on my list, I'm gonna attack you (and shoot, chances are pretty good you're gonna get some free points when I run face-first into your fist), and it's nothing personal. I also expect you all to attack the snot out of me. I know that the only thing I'm good for is 25 Trooper points a day, so just leave it at that, and have at me.
