It had nothing to do with the way you speak or your skin colour. You were being a jerk, pure and simple. Don't go blaming other people just because they call you on it. And don't expect a good reception if you try it here either.

Anyone who would use the phrase "commanding lead" knows full well z = s and 0 = o. If you're really gonna fake it you gotta dumb down your diction and phrasing too! Also, you need to call us all campers and cheaters, and maybe alternate caps a little.

For Mannamagnus, 1337 is leet, which is short for elite, meaning a guy who thinks he's really good at FPS games and really bad at being mature.

His strats seem fine ... for the second one, I wonder if you will have enough gold to upgrade many chariots to knights though? Somehow you have to get the tech up to chivalry, and if you're not conquering during that time, you either have to research it yourself or buy from the AI. If you're doing either of those, you have less money. I bet its an expensive upgrade from chariot to knight ... would you have enough?

[Harovan]

It costs 100 bucks per unit. Don't excessive buy tech, buy it when it's cheap or research it. If you are lucky and research and trade a tech before the AI does, or actively explore and trade maps and communications, you can halfway keep up techwise. When you hit chivalry, the AI will be far ahead in tech tho. Upgrade as many chariots as you can to knights/adequate, and attack. Move the remaining chariots in the footsteps of the knights and use them as garrisons, and to fight single archers/longbowmen. Elite chariots should be able to kill regular longbowmen in most cases, and even generate leaders. Try to capture (or rush with a GL) Sun Tzu's, and while making tech and money in peace treaties, upgrade the chariots slowly.

For those who didn't actually get what this guy was saying: I believe it was an attempt to immitate ALI G.

He's the white dude (the driver from the limo in the Madonna clip "Music") who hosted the MTV awards last year. He just acts to be black (BTW in a very funny way). It needs a little practice to learn it, but hey, so was chinese when I first tried it (not realy true).

Well said

That is the sign of a true master. And a true master is one who would never brag about being 1337.

A true master has no need to brag. He merely works his magic and let's his work speak for him.

Thanks for the insights Sir Ralph. At 100 a throw, I think gold might be somewhat of a problem, but maybe not. Also, the pressure will be on to take out enemy civs before muskets come out. If the offensive gets stalled, the whole game plan is in bad trouble...

MTV ... Madonna ... ALI somebody or another Ugh ...

I don't know any of that stuff, but it just looks like normal run-of-the-mill-I-have-no-life leet junk to me.

Your point, but you know, what the wise Sun Tzu said? "No Sal'petel - no musketel" Now you know, what your primary target is.

Umm, Ming, with all due respect, this guy's use of this way of writing shows that he is perfectly aware of how to use the English language. Don't let him play you. On the other hand, as long as he does not say anything insulting or too crass, so what if his self grasping "I'm so different! I'm so cool! Look at me! Look at me!" style of typing and spelling irritates people.

AMEN BROTHER!

Man, that Sun Tzu was wise ahead of his time!

Amen. But it is also good to discuss strategies with others. But yes, bragging about being 1337 is taking things too far.

Hey... if you have a problem with this guy... take it somewhere else. When I look at this thread, I see one guy who isn't good in English (which isn't against the rules) and a bunch of spammers who probably all deserve PCR's or restrictions...
So either post on topic... or be prepared for a vacation.
Until this guy turns into the spammer you all claim he is, he is welcome to post just as you all "currently" are...
Got it!

And just what part of this post did you guys NOT UNDERSTAND?

Enough... the next person that strays from the topic discussion and instead discusses the starter of the thread, is toast.

Don't tempt me today

[I-iZ-1337]

But I couldn't finish a Deity game with it. Either I need more practice, or I need to deviate on his strategies, since they seem so general, that some specific situations don't suit.

If j00 iz havin probz then j00 can pozt some savez and I wi11 show j00 how t00 b33t deit33 and tell j00 what j00 iz doin wrongz.

Az for j00 flamerz: Why iz j00 botherin me? Not 1337

[bigvic]

Funky writing dude, your strat reminds me of mine, w/ early UU civ. Got to hit hard and steady. Favorites - Iroqois, Aztecs, Zulu, Romans (my mod gives legions 2 move). If lucky start, anything can kick ass.

[bigvic]

BTW Ming, w/ all due respect and despite a strong perverse streak, not trying to get banned, but...I think you are missing out on part of the charm of the "I-iz experience". Whoever he really iz and whatever his ethnic origin may be, he reely enjoys the spam he gets. Either a masochist or an imp. I don't think he cries like a wussy baby when people spam him. Really, i don't know a freakin thing about him, except that he's not me So, why not let the boyz be boyz?

Anyway I-iz, good thread whateva the shiznit you are.

Bad ebonics, eh?

[I-iZ-1337]

J00 iz right, I can takez flamingz, I have s33n it all b33fore.
