Guest Chaos Pudding Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 The sad bit is, I don't know if there is a site with enough concentration of good enough active players who care to do such a thing. Nor do I think using the same tactics as before would make much difference, if any. Any ideas? The people who are able to give ideas know who they are.

.Frostpaw Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 IDK, maybe we could invade pojo/tcgplayer? I've never "invaded" another forum before, could someone tell me the drill? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Crimson King Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I already have a Pojo account, so let's start there. I think we could do a lot of good by aiding the good players there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMan Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I have a Pojo account, too. So I second that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Frostpaw Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 So all we do is aid the good players on the other forums? That sounds easy. Besides, I laugh at the stupidity of some pojo members. *remembers necrovalley kills darkworld discussion* lulz Anyways, I'll start a pojo account.

Guest Star Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I believe he was implying that people need to invade this site and teach the bad players how to play better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrabHelmet Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 YCM's alignment before the GameFAQs invasion was just Chaotic Stupid, so it was pretty easy to improve it from there. Unfortunately, the invasion had a polarizing side-effect. The only site that comes to mind is Pojo, but even if they were to invade (and they won't), it wouldn't do anything - even the members of Pojo who support 3/0 have radically different views on just about everything (one wants all Monarchs banned, one sees everything in terms of floaters and card advantage, and even the non-extremists never agree on anything that isn't as obvious as DSF), and this lack of consensus would prevent Pojo from having a significant effect when the intelligent players here have been here for over a year and generally act as one "hive-mind".

Static Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 lolpojololtcgplayer The only site that has the members to significantly improve this site would be DuelistGroundZ, but I don't think anyone who isn't already good would learn from their trollish nature, even if they did invade to improve the general playing skill. Pojo's good members are a limited few, and they only exist because of Pojo's naturally high active member population. Mentioning XC, YF, ETC, or TCG-P is just laughable seeing as EVERY one of those sites that isn't XC is just GOD AWFUL while XC is just "not very good."

iAmNateXero Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 ive been invading gaia for some time, its just the same 5 half minded bias know nothings all the time + lackeys. its stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark One Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Wow, I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out if the religious nuts on gaia are really good trolls or just really stupid people. The problem with the "hive-mind" of YCM is that it leads bad players to emulate the opinions of the "upper-class" without actually leading them to emulate the thought processes that formulate those opinions. It does allow an intelligent person who is just ignorant to quickly progress, because he has an obvious track along which to progress, but frankly there are very few intelligent people joining this site. I propose that a hive-mind has little or no actual benefit on the card-playing population. And an invasion by pojo would mix things up a bit and provide some fun for the smart people here. I say why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And maybe we could "persuade" the decent palyers on Pojo to join YCM by constantly spamming it and making multiple accounts, proving to them that Pojo is a lot harder to "fix" than other sites, and ruining Pojo.

One of the main reasons that I lie and troll is to stop people from just agreeing with me all the time (though the main reason is that I'm a congenital liar and enjoy trolling you people). However, I still have doubts about what an invasion from Pojo would accomplish; a unified invasion of a chaotic board is very different from a chaotic invasion of a polarized board.
