Bad Positoining

[Matrona2]

Like some other people, i am getting a bit annoyed with bad positioning. Like if two of your worms were right together next to the water. I played turbo t the other day and both of his worms were together next to the water. My worms were together aswell but not next to the water. He used HHG on my worms trying to drown them but he couldnt. They hit a slope next to the water. (the landscape was a island) My turn came and i drowned his worms in a double. next turn he finished my weak worms of, (the ones he tried to drown). my turn, i used banana bomb on one of his worms, (it killed him). He had 1 worm left and used sentry gun and put it on a high place. i used the jetpack and went realy high so the sentry gun could not see me i went to the ground and destroyed him. i think turbo would of won if he didnt have bad places on the lanscape, now im asking u, have u ever had bad places on the landscape?

Oh no, random placement! How unfair!

Get used to it.

Bazookas only!

Yesterday, I lost a few ranks because of VERY BAD positioning.
It was one of those schemes where you have limited tools and you have to collect the items. (eg. 4x blowtorches)

My worms where all at the bottome whilst his where at the top.

All the crates landed with his worms and mine where all wiped out with a 'Global Warming' event, about the 10th turn,

If you're always getting the short end of the stick in a completely random algorithm, then you should seriously think back over what you did that got God angry at you.


Aka: no you don't, you just keep thinking you keep getting the bad places because you don't think enough about the opponent being in tough spots too.

[Matrona2]

once, all 4 of my worms were together, my opponent killed them all in one shot! its so no fair.

Well no, but that happens about the same amount to everyone. Sure, the algorithm could always be improved, but it can't pick on you.

[Matrona2]

i get it nearly every game though, i am sure other players dont have it every game.

[iCarbonX]

I dont think it happens to me alot, but when i am versing someone good, it always happens

[Matrona2]

when i was playing AIRON86 i was put right next to the water, and two other worms were together breathing each others air!

[AndrewTaylor]

i get it nearly every game though, i am sure other players dont have it every game.

Oh, then in that case clearly Team17 hate you and deliberately rigged the game specifically to ruin your day.

That seems reasonable.

[Matrona2]

maybe they do. I still dont understand though.

i just played a game with unbeatable and both my worms were together. WHY IS IT ALWAYS ME??????????

[robowurmz]

Hey, maybe you just suck really bad at strategy: try and think of ways to get your Worms OUT of the situation that they're in!

[Matrona2]

how then? i cant control the game can i? the only thing to do to fix this problem is to put my and my opponents team on 1 worm. I hate 1 worm matches u know.

[robowurmz]

Dur hur, how about moving your worms when it's your turn?

[Matrona2]

its not always my turn first is it?

[iCarbonX]

I never, ever go first. If you host, you go second i think.

[Matrona2]

dont u? thats well unfair. its a good job that u are a fantastic player then! ;)

[Plasma]

Tell me: in what percentage of your matches did you lose completely before you could take your first go?

[yakuza]

Because you don't remember when it's the others. You just enjoy it.

This thread only appeared because you're unable to understand your own mind, ergo you're dumb.

[Matrona2]

Tell me: in what percentage of your matches did you lose completely before you could take your first go?

about 50% of my matches

Now yazuka i have this problem all the time and i dont want another problem by u calling me dumb. If your gonna call me dumb then ur not welcome in this thread.

[Plasma]

about 50% of my matches
...
:confused:

Either:
1: CarbonX is right about hosters going second, and you nearly always host, in which case you're saying that you lose on the first go in half your matches. Which is obviously a big exaggeration, quite frankly. Espeically as there's no way one in every two opponent would be able to kill you off in one go even if all your worms are on top of each other.
2: You lose before you can take your go in about half your matches, but you also take your go first in about half your matches, thus implying that if you don't move first, you lose all your worms instantly every time. A far worse exaggeration.


So, while I don't like insulting people normally, I'm going to go with Yakuza here and say that you're being dumb. Because there is no way in heck that a random condition would be able to pick on you any more than it would on anybody else like that, ever! EVER!
Well actually, there is a chance, but it's roughly a 1 in Infinity chance of that happening.

[Matrona2]

if u 2 keep on calling me dumb then i will tell one of the user mods because u are just being spiteful and worst of all making me feel even more angryer about this stupid problem. Now do want a infraction? or not?

No please, I'm really sorry.

Let me finish with a statement. Anyone that thinks there's some force going against him in a totally random system is not only dumb, but dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb.

Since this thread is descending into a flamefest, it's time to close it.

Random systems are just that - random.
