Re: Next Champion of Champions series

I’d certainly be up for it. Granted that there have been stronger players that have not managed to progress to their respective series finals, I’m also of the opinion that those who progress to the final should be offered a spot in the COC.

Re: TIME FOR A CHANGE?

WOW :shock: :o Either I've been generally ignorant of the (mild?) hostility between apterites, or this has flared up MASSIVELY quite recently. I'm not one for random posting (I think), but having read this thread, and some of the comments regarding CR, DE, JC, RB, SS etc etc, what the f**k is all th...

I'd be up for this as well, since S-o-T is only 40 miles or so from me. Much closer than Lincoln anyways :D

Re: COLIN 2010 results & feedback

Having said that Matt, you would probably be my choice for "Player of the Event", or an award of similar value. Considering that you beat Jon Corby and finished with 4 wins out of 6, I think Ben judged your rating spot on! Your apterous rating doesn't do you justice, and myself, and many o...

Hi Andy. I am having real difficulties connecting to apterous, and when I finally do, it freezes soon after. Haven't had much access to the Internet in the last few days so unless we could reschedule for Sunday (if Andrew doesn't mind that is), then I think our match may not be able to happen. Apolo...

Re: Cheating: What it is, and why you shouldn't do

In hindsight, I should have intervened with this but I was busy playing a match. After a while it became clear that Martin was telling the truth, but Kirk wanted to not believe. And that guy Jimmy Gough was in the background saying stuff like "Kirk's a star, who are you?". Quite a horribl...

Re: Cheating: What it is, and why you shouldn't do it

I know, it put me in an unenviable position; having to plead my innocence after it seemed like I was slagging off some of the apterous universe.

Grounding? Seems a bit lenient doesn't it? I was thinking more along the lines of keelhauling.......

Hi. I've seen these replies to my comments and am relieved to say the least. I accept your apology Kirk.

Re: Cheating: What it is, and why you shouldn't do it

I have explained to Kirk what has happened, and he chose not to believe me. For anyone unsure as to what happened, apparently "I" challenged Kirk to a game, and then quit when I was 52-0 behind. My argument to this was that I, Martin May, was not actually playing. I gave control to my pest...
