Worst luck ever

Grifter · Post by **Grifter** » Fri Jul 17, 2009 9:40 pm

Anyone want to admit to having the worst luck ever at attacking a territory with just one army on it? My record in futility was to lose 5 armies doing so. I usually estimate to lose at least one army attacking in this case. I like to have at least 6 armies to start with before attacking one. This will allow me to lose twice and still be able to do a full 3 vs 1 attack.

The first time I had really bad luck I got upset. Now I just accept that luck goes both ways - sometimes really good

and sometimes really bad

but most times just average

Your concept of "ever" seems a tad skewed.

I had a 50+ stack, but I lost 15 in a row to a 1. My dice are odd. I can take down 7's and 9's all day long with 5's, but my armies crumble against 1's on a pretty regular basis.

I'm the same way. And when I'm sure to win a game I'll finally start winning those 3v2s. I get confused.

Good times, good times...

16v3v3 -> 2v3

Immediately won that 2v3.

Dice is odd...

I just lost eight attacks where I had the advantage... NO SPOILS!
Talk about the game stacking it for a particular player (or stacking against someone).

What a f'in joke!!!

Well I am not sure what your concept of worst luck ever is...but a chap I knew walked into the road on a crossing one day and was killed by a bus driven by a drunk driver...I suppose in the grand scheme of things this might be considered slightly worse luck than your losses...

A guy I worked with got hit in the eye with a trampoline spring and lost his sight.

Up your rank, up your game count, and I'm 100% sure you'll have worse to complain about than losing 5 against 1.

clearwater fl and I lost a tourney doubles game, that was a perfectly executed escalating game with two other teams...we had the thing all cleared, with a half hour on the phone discussing it as we went, and one of the last attacks to win it was a 6 to 1.

We lost. We had nearly a 98% chance of winning....theoretically.

I played an epic dubs game on 2.1 against keyborn and his son that unfolded just that way... I killed my teammate, cashed, went on a killing spree and had like a 7v1 to take out keyborn and cash again and win, and bricked... still rankles me, and this was like a year and a half ago.

For those of us unfamiliar with this tale, could you please explain?

Looks like Master Fenrir is the "winner" (?) for the worst luck ever losing 15 to 1. I hope I do not beat his record.

I think his wife pushed him under a steamroller, or something like that.

I don't think that's BAD luck per se. Maybe he had it coming?
