Shift's Wins

[Shift for Speed]

I will be using this thread to post my wins and losses of good battles.

He had a very decent rush set up against my turtle-like setup. I was able to win by taking out his Golem ambusher before it could kill my units, and once I took out one of his scouts I was able to use my frost to win the game.

This wasn't a full game, and had it been played out, I'm not sure how it would have gone. He had a same side Anti-Rush, and when it ended his Mud Golem was at 14 HP, and up to this point I had gotten some considerable luck.

http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q1/shifttao/lonestar.jpg

He had a same side anti-rush with no Mud-Golem. Due to the lack of this, I just eliminated his Dragon and then trapped one scout and killed the other.

Was a very difficult same side grey game. He beat me in the opposite side game before , So i made a new set and we had a same side game. I killed his cleric very early, and he was unable to take my scout, so I was just able to shoot at his units and force him to attack.

The hardest turtle style game I've had so far. It was opposite sides, and he made the mistake of losing his frost golem along with his Wisp too early. After I took these out, I made an attack with my knight to get his mud, and once this happened, I was able to take out the cleric and win from there.

One of my earlier freestyle games. I don't remember it in much detail, but I believe I put pressure on his cleric, and once killing it had the game.

This is a loss by me agains Bludhoundz. He had a very good rushing type set up, and it was too much power for my defensive stone-golem set to overcome. I learned a lot this game, and would like another one soon.

http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q1/shifttao/almost.jpg

This is another same side grey game against a fellow Arcadian Knight by the name of Almost. He played very well, but after I killed his cleric early on, I was able to win by spreading damage, even with the loss of my scout.




That's it for now, I'll be updating this after most good games.

[bludhoundz]

Damn you're a little beast.

I'll hit you up with a turtle game at some point if you like.

[gigolojlo gl]

I don't care what you say about having only played this game for three or so days. You're no n00b because nobody having only played this game for three days would beat me same side dropless grey or have gotten that good at grey (even if somebody gave you that set), or powza and FB. It's only a matter of time until word gets out about who you really are.

Chill, Gig.

Don't be mad that he pwned you.

;)

[gigolojlo gl]

I am not angry that she "pwned" me, which she didn't, because I "pwned" her before but the fact is nobody three days or so old to this game could beat FB, powza, or me (not being cocky).

Maybe (s)he got lucky?

[gigolojlo gl]

That's more than luck, plus when you first started did you have a forum account right away?

[bludhoundz]

I made a forum account basically when I joined.

[gigolojlo gl]

OK, that was a weak argument but the others were good :P. The fact is this person is not the n00b they claim to be... it's impossible.

[stryker]

She said she and her sister had been playing for 3 months, gig.

[gigolojlo gl]

Not what I heard.

[Geeky_Bastard]

Are you sure Shift is a girl?

[Coffin Fedder]

Well, Well, well, we may have a really good "old" or "new" player our hands. He's donig a hell of a job if he beat those guys.

[Snork]

Not what I heard.

What did you hear?

Read their hello thread in the newbie board.

If you're really that suspicious, do a background check on them, and try and get an ip check done.

[The Coder]

Our game isn't up there *Sniff*

[-57-]

Well, as embarising as it is to get spanked by 7 in a dropless grey game and then have it posted on the forums, it makes me feel better seeing gig up there (by 6 :/) powza, SI leader, AL leader, and firebrand. At least I'm in with a good crowd of lossers :/

:p

And me wants an opp side game with you some time... should be interesting then :p

[Spirit_Monger]

Nice wins Shift.

And Gig, seriously, it's not impossible for someone to be this great after three days. It's not a common thing but it is possible.

[Forest_Archer]

Belgium Rofls owned in his first week, but now he's not so good. By the way, what server are you on, Shift?

[dab00z]

I could beat almost everyone after about a week in grey. It's possible.

Cocky! Conceited! Arrogant! Self-centered!

Hey gigolijlo.

I've actually been playing grey daily for the past three or so months. I think I've learned the game fairly well in those three months.

[Wizzy`]

Are you sure Shift is a girl?
Shift and her "Sister" are probably the same people, who are guys. I'll find out who they are soon enough.

And here comes Snork standing up for the "Girls" :rolleyes:

Hey gigolijlo.

I'll find out who you are, cause i know for a fact you're not the person you say you are.

[Hoolwath]

My money is on the option it is Krome.

[Wizzy`]

My money are on the option it is Krome.

Yeah, that's what i'm thinking.
Him and Dape.

[bludhoundz]

Krome isn't that good.

Trust me.

I've flawlessed Krome in grey before.. and well, gig (although not as good as he might claim to be), is definitely better than Krome and wouldn't lose even with shitty luck.

Not to mention I wouldn't lose to him in a free game.

[Hoolwath]

Meh, the cars still give him away. And he could get..ummm lucky.

[Silver Coast]

Belgium Rofls owned in his first week, but now he's not so good. By the way, what server are you on, Shift?

she, or maybe he >.> is on GL
another question, if ur "sister" is Drive, y is there such a big stat difference between u guys? plus i've seen u on more, just a thought, not a contradiction :p

[Spirit_Monger]

Maybe she is better?

Or is Drive the one with higher stats?

[Silver Coast]

could be :p

no shift has 1400+ stat and drive has like 1200 somethin

[Snork]

And here comes Snork standing up for the "Girls" :rolleyes:


Listen pukeface, I'm not.
I said if that person doesn't believe them, to check up on them.
How is that standing up for them?

You must have smoked some bay leaves or peat moss thinking it was weed.

Hey now..
You love me.


It's not Krome.
I was talking to them both on AIM and MSN at the same time, Krome on MSN, Speed on AIM.
They both were typing at the same time.

[mushroom_girl]

That makes sense, because TAO skill and time to play is definitely genetic. :rolleyes:

Shift, you've played really good people! When I'm up to playing, I'd love to be made a noob out of.

EDIT: Guys, stop being dickheads. Who cares if they are who they say they are? If they end up being the same person, so what? If they end up being guys, so what?

We have members of the community who have never even revealed their gender, and some who switch all of the time! You don't get on their cases for it.

Now you're going to assume that 2 members to the community who are new can't be nice or good players just because they're new?

Wow, that's fair. Benefit of the doubt, people.

[gigolojlo gl]

Couldn't you just run an IP check Liz :(?

[Snork]

Hey now..
You love me.


Yeah, I know.

Just be glad we have new players with skill, that are willing to play anybody.

[Forest_Archer]

Krome isn't that good.

Some people think Krome shouldn't have passed 1500 on rev. I don't think he should've passed 750.

[Esko]

Nice wins...I dunno why everyone is freaking out cause there's a some what new perosn who might beat them. I lose almost every day...but each time you learn. It's not a bad thing to play good people.

[bludhoundz]

Couldn't you just run an IP check Liz :(?

In-game mods can't run IP checks? Don't you think I would have already just to prove that you guys are paranoid about new players.

Some people are just naturally talented at these kind of games, or have been playing a game like chess for a long time. There are explanations, and it isn't that unlikely for someone to be as good as Shift after 3 months.

[C.H.I.L.L.]

=O who lost on AL leader!!!

shame shame not I

[Silver Coast]

lol shift is good, but it was fire that lost :( but overall fire got us stat for leader, shift was the only person that he lost to today
dont worry u will lose on leader someday :p

[C.H.I.L.L.]

do not be ridiculous, i have been battering failed attempts to take me down all day on leader acc. i have yet to see an opponent to spit in my face and say "haha you lose sucker, eat dirt!"

[planktiffy]

aw i should of said that when i beat you on al leader xD

[Silver Coast]

xD that would have been a sight to see, that would have been s/s of rememberance :p

[Lonely Tylenol]

Meh, the cars still give him away. And he could get..ummm lucky.

I came to see what all the commotion was and I stayed to say...

I like cars.

:eek: Quick! Ban me now, before my Rev account jumps to 1500!

Okay, that's a lie... I don't like cars. :)

But my point is valid. That's such a loosely knit argument it's ridiculous.

Look--if you really want an IP address to prove anything, the two sisters, as they stated, go to college in different states:

We're both at home for the holidays right now, but soon we will be splitting up and going back to our usual universities (San Diego and Arizona).

Opt for one then. If they're under the same IP address, you might be onto something. *Might*. In the meantime, either put your money where your mouth is, or just shut up completely. Whaddya say?

[gigolojlo gl]

*Puts money in my mouth?*

[Silver Coast]

>.> we should have just left it at that gig xD
*takes money out of gig's mouth* :D

u know if u really think about it, that sounds a little awkward ;)

EDIT: how the heck do u spell awkward?...or however u spell it :p

[powza]

lol. Our match was a screw around clan game Shifty. :p
However you are a very good player :)

Hahaha.
I get accused of things all the time, I never see you come to my defence like this. :huh:
We have Member not members of the community who have never revealed their gender.
(By Member I mean active person of the community, who actually does something, not someone who posts like 40 times and then leaves.)

I bet that you give me your mod account, that one account will use a proxy, and one account will use a different computer. =]

[Snork]

That's because you actually did them. :)

I definitely have before, I'm sure of it.

Either that, or I believed that the accusations were true, which wouldn't be a surprise with your record. ;)

Ok, so there's Uniq. And we have Hulky who has multiple personalities. Yet no one ever gets all over them. I know for a fact that you don't.

[_Darkness_]

Nice wins. :)

[shatterstar]

people can be good fast. 'tis not impossible.

edit: even if it is a 'vet' as everyone's flimsy egos want to claim, what exactly changes?

good job Shift/Drive/whatever.

Oh, meh meh meh!

IPs are just so easy to change!

[Drive for Speed]

What do you want from us?

Seriously, it isn't that big of a deal. I have seen very few of you actually in game, and those who I have meet are defending me. I have no idea why the rest of you, who "know" me and my sister by our combined ~60 posts, think we can not possibly be sisters.

Then you go on this crazy nonsense about how you need a moderator to check our IP adresses, this will prove that we are someone else! Then you go on to say that the IP adress is unreliable! LOL! Come on!

Once again, what do you want from us? Can't we just be a member of this game?

[Hoolwath]

Oh relax you guys. :)

[Enjoi]

Wow, what a commotion(sp?). If it is someone else then get over it. If it is not well, then just be glad that there is a very good player to play and learn from eh? By the way, nice wins :) I wish I was that good but, frankly I don't have the time anymore to practice this game much.

EDIT: You should play me sometime Shift. Go to rev cause I don't have a gold on gl.

[_Darkness_]

I don't think you are lieing. :)

[Asianpride55]

By the looks of it you seem like a good player shift I want to play you in a tourney game but too bad I only play free I might make a acception to you :).

[Enjoi]

I don't think you are lieing. :)
