[PB61 Tech Thread] New Pitboss - Greens (new player / newish)

Thats an... interesting emote..

I pm'ed Maugitar to explain the mix-up but haven't heard back. If one of the Germans could maybe PM him on that forum to see if he is still interested?

I also haven't gotten a response from Eagleweb on PM I sent.

Am I too late? I have some experience in Pitboss.

You are on time. Welcome!

How much experience?

It is not! I sent you a PM as well.


Seperate:
I sent a follow up PM to Eagleweb last night and haven't heard back yet.

I've been PMing the greens experience questions mainly to assign ded lurkers without cluttering this thread. I PM'ed a followup question to [Rus]Grek but kind of wanted to loop everyone in. [Rus]Grek describes themselves as experienced in multiplayer with 6 games played. My follow up question was "how well have you done" (haven't received a response). Again I don't know if I have a hard and fast rules for a greens game, which is why I wanted to communicate to everyone. Kind of on a an honor system. I basically am trying to avoid another Plemo joining a greens game and just easily stomping the field (PB51 last greens game). Obviously we have been firing a pitboss game every couple of months, so would prefer better experienced players to wait (which in general I didn't think would be a problem because of PB59 taking so many players and PB60 having started recently).

Just another note is that Eagleweb hasn't responded / been on forum since signing up so unless we hear back fast I would assume they are not playing.

I also put in a request for thread to be moved.

I mean an experience player picking aggressive Rome in a greens game was also somewhat iffy. Some poor green was going to get pounded.....

Bit of a difference between an experienced player and a Plemo/TBS/Mackoti player though.. rolf 



Picked it mostly because thats my "standard" pick for when i play single player.

Most of the lower experience players will have dedlurkers. I'm 99% sure grek plays on the ladder a bunch though.

Your northern neighbor was an actual green who shouldn't have been expected to know better  smug
