Hey you Motherless Asshole and all the rest of those who have the Compassion of an Asshole. I made a request and you flamed me, a simple comment would be nice and help would be better but you wanted to be an Asshole.
As for those who saw this and were neutral or thought about helping me I say thanks for not being Motherless Assholes like Hector.
The Reason for your low score is because of the games you play 89% of the time you lose. I am not saying that you are a bad player because you are not. Just that some people are better then you are.
Perhaps the problem is that you play lots of standard games instead of finding doubles games with somebody you know is decent? It's a whole lot easier to win as part of an organised team than to triumph in a random, swingy free-for-all where games are often decided by random suicide attacks by players about to lose.
I'm no scoreboard genius myself (guess what, lots of standard games), but if you want to get out of the cook-zone then finding some settings you like and setting up a load of doubles games with a reliable partner is probably the way to do it.

Yeah, sounds like a good idea. 1v1 hadn't occured to me to be honest, never played one, doesn't appeal for some reason.
Although I guess that with an organised team-mate you can do ruthless 1st turn fortifying to get off to a blistering start vs less-organised pairings. I've heard it argued that team fortifying helps to aleviate the problem of being 'drop-screwed', though I'm not sure what to make of it...
As I say, I'm not a scorings genius, I just felt a bit sorry for the OP who was struggling to get much constructive criticism. Thought I should take a break from being mean to everybody and try to help out for once.

Thank you for your comments. Ill try this too allong with private games.
This topic is now moving to friends playing grab ass with each other but its more helpful than it was with Hector the Motherless Asshole.

In my opinion it isn't even necessarily required to find a partner that is really good. Just find someone you know you get along with and ask them to be your regular partner over an extended period of time. By the time you've played 10-15 games together using settings you both like on maps of your choice, you should start winning roughly 50% of your doubles games, if not more.
Since your average score is just over one point per game played, you need to play a lot more games. Once you reach 4500 or so games played you will have achieved Conquerer status.
Make a private game(password protected, i.e. not a game full of privates) and ask some of these people to join, and then they can tell you why you suck.
Seriously though, the only way to get good is by playing with good players and studying their strategy.
