I'll Never Learn
Not for the first time, a questionable pile on leaves me short on options and thus squanders a game in a tournament (a SMACK, this time).

I really should stop doing that.

It didn't help that I couldn't count afterwards; the Coat should have been in the stands before he snaked a dodge.

So this is a message to, well, me. When the chips are down and it's the critical moment, contemplate that pile on before auto-clicking. I could well have done a different play with that wolf standing and probably won that game.

What annoyed me most is that it would have been the most satisfying kind of victory - suffering casualties to the tune of 10 to 2. I denied myself the opportunity to be smug as a mug for a good evening or so.

Silly 'Saw.

i used to auto pile on, that changed when i played smallkosp and smallman threw away his chance to wim by always piling.
dont get me wrong, the biggest delays in my turns are caused by that struggle to click no to a dodgy pile on. but man if you benefit from it, ot stops you being one of 'those' even for just 1 game.
so in review (almost) always pile 'awn!

Good (rather wise) blog entry, bad headline. If it was a message to yourself, you really have picked something positive. "Stop pulling that crap, ***!" - something like that.
Posted by Cloggy on 2013-11-16 14:06:16
Yap, auto-pile-on is a disease that needs to be cured!

I even found myself rerolling AV rolls with Ma4 dorfs at some point. It's got to stop......

People need to foul moar!
That's the only cure..

You might learn... but by the time you do, at some point you'll lose because you *didn't* pile on, you'll rehash the dice rolls and kick yourself for not following your instincts ;D
Posted by Chainsaw on 2013-11-16 15:40:34
Wise words Jeffro.

Sometimes it is best to think less and let the dice decide!

Punching yourself in the face looks like fun....I'm gonna try it
Posted by Cavetroll on 2013-11-16 19:13:16
Pile On only works for the other guy, everyone knows that. When you do it, you just get a stun and out of position :)
Posted by Chainsaw on 2013-11-16 19:27:28
Those aren't my hands! See the sleeve colours! That took nearly 2 minutes painstaking image manipula... oi!

Actually it's a reference to Kung Fu Hustle...

We got to follow your team to figure that one out, C. Also, Chainsaw piling-on to often, who would have guessed?
Posted by the_Sage on 2013-11-17 12:19:59
I'm sure it'll look the same on you, Calcium. Because, well, twins and all that.
