Westren from Great Lakes server.

I stumbled apon this game on www.addictinggames.com. I used to play Family Feud with my girlfriend, but it has becoming a bit too repetitive after a few months. If any of you play Family Feud private message me and I'd be happy to add you to my buddy list for a game sometime!

Anyways, we are looking for a new game possibly, and I am here to try this out. Mr Anton and speaker4thedead have been very kind so far and told me some of the social guidelines and whatnot. Kingdevil77, has been very fun playing me for my first two games.

While playing Kingdevil77, I learned a trick with my scout. We had our knights battling it out and I ran my scout up to help the fight. I checked my shot and it had 0% chance of hitting. I thought for a second and came up that if I shot at the next consequetive square farther than his unit I would hit him. I came up with this idea after learning their was friendly fire on this game, and blocking has to do with the angle your warrior is facing. Blah blah blah... you all most likely know that, but I was very excited when I killed his knight when it told me I couldn't hit.

If I really like this game I might start playing with my girlfriend, although it seems like we can't play each other on one computer. We might play as a team like we do one family feud, I don't know yet. This game is the same price as family feud and it might be a nice change.

If there is anything else I am meant to post in a Introduction thread please inform me, it has been a while since I joined a forum.
Thanks,
Westren

First of all welcome to the forums, as well as the game. On the forums just read the stickies/announcements and follow the rules and you'll be fine.

[DarkMethod GL]

Hey welcome to the forums and the game, hope you have fun.

[Eagle24]

Welcome to the Forums Man. I hope you have a good time here.

[Punishment]

Welcome Westren.

Learning LoS this early is very amazing, I expect good things from you in the future if you decide to stick around :)

[freddyadu]

Heh, he just joined and has 5 green boxes, but he did make a good post.

*Gives 6th green box*

[Westren]

I just finished my second game with Kingdevil77. By all means I should have lost this match. The final result was a draw though, because I used elusive strategies with my assassin to dodge his knight for a long time. Pretty intense game, but it ended in an exchange of a compliment for an insult. I was a little taking back by that, but as long as the majority of the community is nice, I think I may stay a while.

I have a question what do you mean 5 and 6 boxes? Are boxes kudos? If so thank you, but I don't deserve kudos.

One more question for this post, what is "LoS"?

[Shady]

Welcome to the TAO forums, Westren.

[Magician]

LoS is Line of Sight. Congrats on learning that valuable tool so early! Welcome to the forums, and as the people above me have said, read stickies, post smart and you'll be fine :)

The "boxes" refer to your Reputation on these forums. The more green boxes, the better. However, no-one really cares about rep, apart from dape :p

To answer your first question: The "boxes" are added by the amount of reputation you recieve. More rep, more boxes.

For the second question, LOS is line of sight.

EDIT: Magician beat me to it.

Make sure to drink every drop of the "water"

[Shaddix]

yes, welcome western, Great Lakes is a very good clan, you'll enjoy it alot. Good Luck(PS rep for you)

[Westren]

Please explain, I don't understand what you are referring towards. Unless that was a general statement.

I was just asking Magician how I can open a second window of the game on my computer to play my girlfriend. He told me that their is a way, but it is risky and I might be thought as a cheater. My situation is that we live in an apartment and share a laptop between us. It would be nice if I could set it up so we could play each other to practice and just plain ol' have fun. :)

Thanks,
Westren

[Magician]

The "water" refers to the Great Lakes - your server of choice. At least I think that's what Coder means :)

[Speed Demon]

yes, welcome western, Great Lakes is a very good clan, you'll enjoy it alot. Good Luck(PS rep for you)

You mean server :p

Welcome Westren, hope you have fun here. Glad you're getting the hang of LOS, takes a while to master :p

[speaker4thedead]

YOuve allready spoken to me, welcome.

[Cuathon]

wellcome to tao, i tossed you another 200 rep. hehe it doesnt really mean anything so just ignore it.

[Westren]

I got my account upgraded and now I got 10 more units to learn.
I have 967 ranking stats so far. :)
(We are staying for a little while at least. Great community so far and a very fun challenging game.)

Thanks for the warm welcomes,
Westren

[stryker]

I thinks its pretty cool that you and your girl go around trying games. That would be pretty cool.

[Cuathon]

i wish my girlfriend was cool like that.

[shatterstar]

[Westren]

Thanks shatterstar,
I just sent the ticket and I got an email saying "Your ticket reference number is #5013".

Now all I need is to learn how to use my new warriors in a formation. :)

[Zoticus]

Westren, I usually study new people a little before I welcome them but I must say I'm very impressed you. (do not be alarmed I'm not a stalker) You have learned the LoS very early, this is good. I can see now that you do have a future in TAO. I am looking forward to having you in the community.

Sorry for the late reply, I have been busy, not much searching time.

Hehe. Far from it.

the "water" is what made you all get addicted to the game.

Its no longer in sepository form. We have more subtle ways now.

[Magician]

o.0 TAO's underhanded, subtle methods will not work on me! Damn, too late. :(
