Reports of Swiss, Challenge, and Bonus games go here. Please specify the type of game (Swiss, Challenge, or Bonus), the score (Swiss, Challenge only) and any goals completed (see November ROOT Prizes thread for explanation--it works the same way as it did last month). Your opponent must confirm all scores, game reports, and goals, so please remind your opponent if he or she has not done so toward the end of the week. An Example report would be as follows:
I beat Player X 5-2 in our Swiss match
I completed the weekly goal of removing 5+ characters from the game.
-

-
I was in bonus game against the warrior and he unexpectantly "had to go" and disconnected. does this count as legal points for me?

Nice. Well done.

Yep. If someone forfeits a bonus game against you, you get points for it. Not that you need it, since you won a bonus vs. Matt.

root bonus game
me=1
warrior=5
I met the challenge=I gold shielded blue ehud into a gold ehud, chose pilate to block, then played a brutality of NON goodness with ehud's dagger, d/c hating the light, then pilate played self righteous something or other to get 0/6 and defeat my poor ehud. Before ehud, I trained in righteousness purple solomon into gold, but he ran into a low sadducee who played JIP, and sadly, wisdom of solomon and solomon dedicates the temple arent exactly battle changers, so he met his fate of removal. It felt like i was playing booster draft on offense. And my offense was about that effective. :D

This really doesn't involve you. RTS and Warrior need to get in touch with Prof A and explain what happened.
-
Bonus game with Guardian-
Guardian=5
me=2
After battling almost 2 hours, he decked my 105er and watchful servanted his way in, but there were many other ways he had to defeat me, namely the abom that torched my massive defense, and my 21 heroes suffered under satan's wrath. :D
I did meet the weekly goal of getting 1 of every good/evil brigade in play at one point. I can't remember now all the cards involved but I would be glad to email the deck to show it was possible. :)
-
Confirm. :)
I even took a screen shot to help remember.
Nebuchanezzar (Crimson)
Gomer (Brown)
Herod the Great (Yellow)
Fallen Angel (Orange)
Antiochus Epiphanes (Black)
Pontius Pilate (Gray)
King Manasseh (Pale Green)
Self (for good measure)
Zechariah (Teal/Green)
Jeremiah (Teal/Green)
Seraphim (Silver)
Israelite Archer (Gold)
Tribal Elder (Blue)
Jephthah (Red)
Mary Mother of James (White)
Simon the Zealot (Purple)
I did not have the necessary brigades in my deck to fulfill the goal, but I did have 4 out of 8 good brigades and 6 out of 7 evil brigades at once.
Abom cleared around 15 ECs...Wrath took out about 28 Heroes between the two of us...Hur/Gifts was abused with regularity...The Bronze Laver helped draw around 40 cards...a wild game to be sure :P

So Unintentional Disconnection counts as win now huh?

Red, again, this doesn't involve you.
Warrior, you need to PM Prof A with what happened, not make off-hand comments on here.
-
Guardian, All due respect here but look, I was in the SOT and disconnects were handled that if it was unintental and the player that was said to have left(Warrior in this case) would be deemed the loser by forfeit. So please quit trying to beat what you've been saying into my skull it doesn't work. Let me say my piece.

Your "piece" is not relevant to this discussion for two main reasons:
1) It does not involve you in any way.
2) You are sourcing one of the involved parties as why you believe what you believe.
Why can't Warrior and RTSM just try to play again? It's not that big a deal. Red, please stop commenting about it and just let the authorities handle it.
Also, FWIW, haven't heard from Warrior about our Swiss. I sent him a PM and some hamachi messsages.
-
Beat RTSM 5-0 in our Swiss game. Him drawing no defense, a soul every turn, and hur-ing me into SoG/NJ were the MVP's for me that game.
-
yea no defence- huge let down. goes great with the cg25's deck change thread. 56 carder btw. 8 EC's. 4 EE in hand. waited for this game like 2 days...did i mention let down.
-
Yeah, I feel you there. I was expecting this to be the epic, climactic game of the month, and instead it was three rounds and out.
-
Defeated Adotson 5-4 in a game that featured a sweet Mayhem save. :)

First of all, this is not the SOT--this is an official (sanctioned by Cactus) tournament. Secondly, you have no way of knowing the circumstances for why there was a disconnect. I know you said you talked with Clift, but he was not the one who disconnected. Thirdly, I'm not trying to beat anything into your skull, I'm asking you very respectfully to stay out of a matter that does not concern you--this is not a debate or a discussion where we are looking for opinions. It's an issue between two players and those who are judging this event. If you have further comments, you can PM me.

This sounds like something I would have said from the time I was 9 until I was 17. Interestingly, within the following 12 months I lost over 80 pounds and grew four inches taller. My life changed rather dramatically after that.
I now have a beautiful wife, two wonderful children (with another due soon), a job that I love, and an incredible home. Give God time to work in your life and you will find happiness.
Just remember:
1. Practice makes better, not perfect.
2. The geeks and fat kids in high school marry the hotties as adults.
3. Don't wait for your life to get better. Make it better.
4. The nice things your family and friends say about you really are true, even though you may think they are just saying it to be nice.
5. The mean things others say about are either not true, or are things that you can change.

Nah.. just a lucky draw on my part. Happens to the best of us.

Actually I think it does matter. Having your opponent quit on you in a game is frustrating and is poor sportsmanship on the part of the player who quits. I seem to have seen multiple posts recently about cg25 dropping out of games, and if that is a trend, then it could have a negative overall impact on ROOT. Therefore it does matter. It's not all about one person and their perceived low opinion of themselves.
-
yeah im sorry and im not proud of it im just extremely overwhelmed right now in trying to be an expert at this game and experts don't fall behind 3-0 in the first 4 turns just doesn't happen so i apologize and im trying to take a small time out aka not doing january and hopefully ill feel better when february rolls around.
