Round table

+1, for some people a capitol on week 1 is an anomaly, while for others uncleared crypts near the castle on week 1 are also considered a sign of weak play. Everyone started somewhere, and if you rub every novice's nose (who, by the way, isn't arrogant, but just learning) in such blunders, soon there will be no novices left at all!

Here we go again :( . I can name 10 reasons for not clearing crypts on week 1; for example, the simplest one (which was actually the case in that match being clearly hinted at) — there were no troops left for it after breaking a strong block near the castle (I don't remember which one) when rests were already gone, and besides, the crypts weren't even that close to the castle, don't lie :rolleyes: . And let's agree, not clearing crypts can be called a blunder, but a capitol on week 1 is already a clear sign of skill level. By the way, the highly respected Invisible has already tired me out by "rubbing my nose" in those miserable crypts :eek: ; he started acting smart and annoying me immediately after the game :( . And I see nothing offensive for myself or others in choosing an opponent of at least ROUGHLY the same level; actually, it's my business who I play with, it's just not interesting to play when the outcome of the match is known in advance, I'm just tired of it to be honest. Respect to the novices, but again, there is nothing offensive for them in choosing an opponent of equal strength; for example, I'll honestly say I'm afraid to play with people who break Dragon Utopia on week 2 and I don't consider this shameful; one way or another, you either have to raise your level or choose an opponent of equal strength so that it's interesting. I advise beginning players to read the relevant threads to improve their skill level. Imagine a situation where a person playing chess for the second time in their life strives to play not with the world champion, but say, with the city champion. Is there any point in such a game?
