Re: ESOC Chess Corner

I think most people are unlikely to seriously consider cheating. Of course it happens to some degree, but on a much smaller scale than some people claim. I could see it being slightly more prevalent in sports perhaps because any form of cheating is always indirect. Yeah maybe this drug can give you ...

Re: ESOC Chess Corner

A lot of top players seem way too paranoid of cheating recently, and seem to think that no one was any integrity. I find it extremely hard to believe that 20-50% of top players have cheated, as Fabiano claims.

It is in fact the seventh greatest strategy game of all time. Anyway, you seem unhappy with the current state of AoE3. Maybe you should give the first GSGOAT another shot https://online-go.com/play

Re: British Guide (from a top 10, maybe top 3 player, once I get my GK down)

How do I approach Brit mirror if they also 42v age 1 FI?

Edit: actually, what if they 43v age 1 FI? Is the correct response to 41v for tempo or 44v for eco?

Re: our founding persons

Thanks. Neuron was my old account on the Proboards forum where we were first hosted. Mitoe says I did work on the backend, but back then we had no backend, if only we had one, a lot more things would have been possible earlier. So we had to improvise and compensate for the lack of control over how ...

Re: our founding persons

Very early days (the first month) I remember a few people off the top of my head: Stanley_Winston (AKA Amhaye) for initially setting up the tournament and creating the website for it, for some reason choosing to call it "ESO Community" even though he originally thought it was only going to...

Re: Suspicious OOS and Aztec Smurfs

To be fair, keys are around $5 on reseller sites at the moment. So if you really wanted to you could drop $25 on five accounts, which is a lot less excessive. I remember a guy back in the day that was number 1 on the leaderboards on cod 5. He bought 12 playstations and 12 copies of the game just so...

Is this a jab directed at me dropping out of the top 100 briefly a few months ago? :hmm:
No I would've rounded you up, can't see anyone objecting. Maybe we had 4 when Tabben was on too, but if he came back we'd have 5 now.
If you look at top 60, there’s already 5 without Tabben.

Re: Coin upgrade for Iro/Lakota

To be fair, the Tribal Marketplace does give you 21% yield on your mine. It’s 10% according to this page : https://ageofempires.fandom.com/wiki/Tribal_Marketplace (which makes a lot more sense than 21% btw) Yeah, but when I test it in game I get 2420 coin out of a 2000 mine.

So I've been using the doppelsoldner portrait for over a decade now, and I think it's really cool. Especially his hat. But something that has always bothered me is that there's actually no way for him to use his sword. Why are there these extra crossguards on the hilt? Surely they just make it impos...

Re: Coin upgrade for Iro/Lakota

Actually, it looks like the Tribal Marketplace at release cost 25w to build but let you gather coin 10% faster with no upgrades, but was later changed with the Knight of the Mediterranean DLC to be free and have a yield bonus instead of a gather rate bonus. what steps did you take to find this out?...

If that's true I guess I can stop being mad at them every time I need to mine, just wish they would build 10X faster, still feels like quite a handicap. The...
