1 vs *

You've seen 'em. Probably played in 'em. The question was raised recently if it was an Arranged Battle, and the concensus was no. At first I agreed. Hell, I ran a few of these myself. Then I decided to dust off the ole DD and have a go at a CL.

Guess what? Banned, banned again, banned again. Why? I can only assume that I represented a variable in their equation that they didn't like. The odds weren't quite so stacked in their favor. THE OUTCOME OF THE BATTLE WAS NO LONGER GUARANTEED. And just to point out, I was not in a Z99. Anyone that has every played against me knows I am not THAT much of a threat in any ship...

My ship in this SS is a Tribal but this stacker banned me before my ship loaded. This was also attempt 2 to get in the room, the first time I was the 3rd DD in.

My opinion of this is if you are going to run a 1 vs * and you are the '1' you should not be able to pick and choose your opponents. You dont want torps? Make it a no torp room, then you cannot torp them either. No TW is your preference? Fine, don't be one yourself and even if they have the level 1 guns on a fubu you should not be allowed to kick them. PERIOD!

Yes the new DD's can be very powerful, in some cases almost too much so. But nobody is forcing you to make a 1 v * room. You want to play that kind of game? Then play it, as they come in. "Oh no! But I may lose my precious CL before I do a lot of damage!" Guess what Bub, we all take that chance every time we enter a balanced room. But then, I guess you stackers wouldn't know a balance if it bit you on your arse. These are the guys that jump teams right before the host tabs. These are the guys that retreat from Op Cons if their team misses the first box. If you don't want to risk your ship get a neutral DD and go play the beginner mission.

To summerize; Grow up and get a set of balls or go play your nintendo using all your cheat codes so you don't have to face a challenge. You make me sick.
