What is your opinion of the rudest turndown for a match? Also, if you have an entertaining one, feel free to post it.

I think the rudest thing someone can do is not say anything at all. I'd rather hear "Go F--k Yourself" then nothing.

I agree with Acheron_Styx, at least with Go F**k Yourself you know to keep looking for a game instead of sitting there thinking 'They must be checking the team before they reply'

My new favorite reply to people that are obviously out of their minds when suggesting a game is,"You must be high to think I am that stupid." to which i get a miriad of replies.

the funniest one was,"Actually i am, so why don't you want to play me?"

to which i responded,"well...you have 30 team rating less, and 40 team strength more than me, not including the fact that you have 8 more players than i do."

reply from person offering the match,"i still don't see why you won't play me."

i gave him a nice STFU and put him on ignore.

I'm going to add an other option to the poll, but you must describe your reason in a post, as I can't think of too many others that are credible.


Edit: Just realized I can't, but if you want, you can give other as a reason in your post.

I had a dark elf team refuse to play my amazons, who had a lower TS and TR because he only had 1 player with tackle. I was like, "Dude, EVERYONE on your team has a 4 AG and you don't see me complaining about it." After that he ignored me

I had someone refuse to play my Undeads and said, "Hell no, your mummies are too strong!"
I replied, "There's only two of them and they're slow.....your team is ELVES!"
No response...sigh

It's not rude: but funny:
<could have been opponent> no thx, you've played to much Wink
Damn.. this game is addictive, I played over 600 games now, holding the overall nr 40 spot, now this is stopping me from playing more games Wink

I hate the old "Im not playing orcs with orcs" or "I'm not playing norse with norse". That always annoys me. I like same race on same race games sometimes as it really is about as fair as fair can be. But hey I actually find most people out there are pretty polite !

Except you Milnestar! Razz Evil git.

Regarding the poll, I'd go with option 1.
