I game played but countless games refused.

Players only seem willing to participate if they have an advantage but are very, very keen to participate in other people's conversations.

Who are you? Have we met?

I'm new here trying to get some experience so I can join some leagues, sadly getting an even fight in Camel V Camel seems almost impossible.

Open to challenges.

You have to hang around long enough in public/open games before many of the experienced players will accept your challenges. Experienced players like to play challenges that involves other experienced players. I don't usually have any problem getting even multi-player challenge games/leagues started with players like ksnake and scotireb.


Thanks for the game btw.

What is it about experienced players that prevents them from playing anyone in a simple challenge game? They seem very precious and defensive - are they worried that a new player may be better than them?

If that's the case then whether I have 1 game played or 1000 games played I'll have the same problem as they will have still played that many more games than I.

It is a shame that it is the less experienced players that make new players welcome rather than those who have been here for the most time.

I have always ensured that those with experience and who are therefore more worldly wise greet and meet the new players at my wargame's club. This way an experienced player mentors new players and shows them the ropes.

Perhaps we are just considerate of those who wish to join but need some guidance.

As far as I know, "professor" ksnake always mentor new players. He even mentored me in my early days. However he will be the seeking you out usually after you have been active for some time.

The reason I (and I suspect some other veterans as well) refuse challenge from newer players are as follows:
  • I prefer fast games since I have tons of games already. At least 1 move a day but I prefer a few moves if possible.
  • New players on some occasion show lack of sportmanship. Fly around at high speed after having a 1 point lead.
  • New players on some occasion has poor etiquette like retiring when only 1 gun is destroyed.
  • New players on some occasion will be very active for a few days and disappear completely afterwards. That is why some of us do not join leagues early. We want to avoid potential automovers.
  • It occured to me before in multi-player games with new players that the new players just retire with minimal damages leaving the rest of his wingmen behind.

    Again this are just my opinions.

    P.S. Donating to the site also boost your status.
