I challenge everyone and anyone in the top 20, just b/c I am fed up with playing mismatch games and I'm getting really bored now. ID 310.

No I'm not. I was about 30 points ahead of you in rank. Misclicked and closed the window, giving me a loss. Anyways, I'm once again, ahead of you in rank.

Nope, you're not. And even if you were, I don't see how that gives you the right to trash talk.

Look again. And it's not so much as trash talk, as it is "friendly" advice.

Nope. It's trash talk. And I'm still looking down at you from the top of the food chain.

Top of the food chain eh? Could of sworn that was Kilean, who I've beaten.
Lets check some stats, shall we?
Kilean, over 325 games. First place*
Froze, Total of over 400 games. Would be in first if it wasn't over two accounts. **
Captain, over 140.
Buddy, almost 500.*
Crims, over 200.*
Myself, over 200.
You, under 100.

See a pattern here? The friendly advice is, don't bite off more than you can chew. Which is exactly, what you're trying to do.
* = People I've beaten
** = People I plan to beat,

Number of games won is a measure of how good you are? Strange metric there. How about winning percentage, which I have you by a lot, AND I've only played this game for just over a week and I'm pretty much the same rank as you. That says a lot...

Given the very odd matchmaking system, I wouldn't rely on stats as an indicator of much anyway.

I'm also not even very good at this game as I am still learning, but there's no need to make personal attacks on me because of some insecurity on your part. If you haven't played me, you shouldn't be judging me based purely on the fact that I haven't played 100 games yet. That comes across as extremely arrogant and patronising.

I never made a personal attack on you. You took it personal. I just gave you some "friendly" advice. Now, it's personal. I hear you lost to FrozenFury in under a minute. Congratulations! Granted, I lost all 3 games against him, they were fun. The last one was byfar the closest, but I was lagging so whenever I did anything, it was several seconds late.
Also, arrogant.
Arrogant:Having or revealing an exaggerated sense of one's own importance or abilities.
You just tried to challenge everyone in the top 20. Who's arrogant now?

I was chatting to frozenfury when the game started. I wasn't even playing.

I didn't take it personal, you were just plain patronising. Telling me to come back after playing 100 games is pretty much in-my-face arrogant. And now you're (1) bragging, (2) making excuses, and (3) attacking me again.

I challenged everyone in the top 20 to get a good game. I did it so people would give me their IDs, or challenge me, in order to get GOOD games that this matchmaking system does not achieve. I think if I'm rank 7 it is not too arrogant to challenge people within a few ranks of me (including below me). There's a big difference between challenging someone (like me) rather than claiming (like you) that you're better than everyone else.

What I'm thinking is that you're taking things WAY too damn seriously. He wasn't giving you "friendly advice". He was obviously joking, but you took it personal and now you've started an argument that's just as immature as 5-year-olds fighting over a ball.
