Gold Jumpers!
Well. I just thought that t would be nice to have a gold jumpers thread for all three servers, so that grey jumpers and cheaters can be shown for who they really are, although I presume this will be restricted to golds, as greys are simply deleted every month, and the can make multiple accounts....
So, to start this thread off I will post a few golds who I have found on the army server. At the moment I only have two here, but there are also others posted on the thread entitled "icantwin : caught cheating", which my clan leader has posted here. The two golds I have, one of them was jumping greys, before I got him/her into a game, where he/she tried to make me join his/her clan so that he/she would not lose stats. This was against lordpyro. The other one, puppy, is a more severe case, I believe, as I gave him two games, both of which he tried to make me leave, the first one using the F5 trick, the second time he wanted me to surrender because he 'had to go to dinner'. After the game he remained in the lobby ignoring me, asking golds to join his clan. Here they are: lordpyro puppy (g1) puppy (g2) At dinner |

(Repost from the Banff thread)
Ok, I've been talking to a few of the golds and I have to say something. I know it's fun to play golds and fun to razzle them some, but let me ask, if you are in a game with a gold, please, please, please, do not give them a hard time with taunts and rude comments unless they really deserve it. Just because they are gold does not mean that they deserve beratement. I don't want DR to come down on us because we are making the game not fun for Golds and thus they are cancelling their accounts. Besides, if the taunting in the lobby is to get a game, once you are in game, why continue? I think my guys and gals are of a higher class than that. Likewise, if anyone sees one of my members using cheap tactics such as stalling, please let me know. I will not suffer the tactics of lexpression in my clan. I hate stalling worse than I hate greyjumping... ok, almost. I play golds because it's a challenge every time (almost), not because I want to take money out of DR and Seed's pocket. Remember that the game is for fun and not to prove your manhood. Squiggly.

Golds can not play golds all the time.
Often there are a lot less gold opponents to go around. Many golds are also Clan leaders and that takes their time as well, meaning two things. 1) even though there may be golds in lobby, some may be doing clan business and not avail. for other golds to play. 2) if the gold DOES get time to play and there are no golds willing to battle, if they want to play they have to play a grey. Even more, since some golds are ranked so high even a 900 grey wont give them points, why sit a tile only to get jumped by tons of 750's trying to score mega points of a high ranked gold. More often than not, the gold will stat a few people and grab the first game that will give them any points. Not all golds that play greys are "grey jumpers". Besides, the best way to get revenge on a grey jumper is to beat them. And yes, it can be done. DragonFire Greys beating Golds

Shaman,
I understand the reasons. Occasionally just getting into a game is fine. What is wrong is when the likes of Trauger on Great Lakes, with a 1648 rating, will not play golds. He will only play high ranked greys trying to take their ratings. There are others who do this, who will not play against a gold or even a grey who challenges them, but looks for the first unsuspecting grey that will give them points. And believe me, I know that golds can be beaten. If you check out the Banff and Great Lakes versions of this thread, you will see screen shot after screen shot of greys beating golds. An official Gold Jumpers clan has not been set up on Army at this time, mainly because I don't have time to patrol all 3 servers the way I would like to. I do have a name on Army that I use occasionally when the other 2 servers are dead. Saying this, (way off tangent), I believe our efforts are beginning to pay off. Banff, by far, is the friendliest noob grey server. Great Lakes is the worst and that is why I decided to expand to there next. With Army being the default server right now, ya'll are getting a large influx that will need to be seen to, but I don't have the time. Hopefully you golds can patrol yourselves until we can expand. And I'll check occasionally. Squiggly

most golds wont play greys that have stats and want to play them. golds that i want to play have about equal stats to me but turn down my challenge. and yet they say the only want to play golds. and yes i would prefer if more golds would jump me when waitin for a battle.

I play greys occasionaly, although I prefer playing other golds. This is because I may be in a bad mood and dont feel like fighting a turtler, is which case I make my formation grey-friendly, or maybe Im recruiting for my clan, or maybe there are no golds on that are willing to play. In any case I have been called a grey jumper before, and have had stalling used against me, which is just gay. I dont care about the stats I play since no matter wut a grey's stats are, mine are high enough that they will either have high enough stats to have an amazing gold-beating srtategy, or otherwise I gain 1 or 2 points, and they lose 1 or 2. I care about keeping my stats correct, but I dont care about spending says trying to get them as high as possible. The game is about skills, not stats. Its great to say you have 1500+ stats, but if u cant deliver in a game, you are done. Grey's that practice to fight golds help to keep the people who play greys just for stats away, and also give people like me a challenge where we would not expect one. Keep up the good work

Gold Jumpers are the only official ally of netjak, right?

I don't find grey jumping golds to be as significant a problem in Army, at least for upper ranked. There ARE a lot of golds who are grey jumpers, but they aren't significant enough to warrant a complaint most of the time.
Really too, there are becoming more and more golds now, so that its becoming difficult to really keep track of the loser ones in this manner.

Army does do well against grey jumpers, golds always look for another gold to play. though being a goldjumper was fun, it is not to necessary on army. just my opinion squigs!
