Navaros Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 Why *NOT* to Play Emperor: It Ruins your "Get Some Factor"That's right. This month I have not played QM. I have compared this month with the others months I have not played QM, and those months were in turn compared with this months in which I *did* play QM.I have made an alarming and shocking scientific discovery about the effect of playing in Emperor Tournaments on Quality of Life.The conclusion: Playing in Emperor Tournaments ruins your "Get Some Factor". Not playing in Emperor Tournaments makes it much much easier to "Get Some"! So my advice to all the longstanding Emperor Tournament Players - take a month or two off and Get Some.
sonic-worm Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 Hmmph?..... is Nav 'choking the Emperor worm'?..he will go blind! ;D
Taqwa11 Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 Actually, for him it's more like choking the old sand trout.
Navaros Posted August 10, 2002 Author Posted August 10, 2002 this thread ain't about choking anything. man, you guys really need to learn how to *read* LOL
Taqwa11 Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 LOL. Sorry, Nav, but we just thought it was about choking something since you need both hands to play Emperor effectively. Of course, if you can "get some" while sitting in your computer chair AND using both hands to play Emperor, more power to you bud, because you're a luckier man than I.
Navaros Posted August 10, 2002 Author Posted August 10, 2002 Yeah the point of this thread is to make public the devastating longterm effects on the quality of life of the average Emperor Tournament Player who devotes and dedicates himself to the Tournament. I am sharing the results of this study with you all for *free*, but normally such studies need to be paid for to the tune of 6 figures.
Mahdi Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 Which is probably what it cost you to "get some" 8)
Desert_Eagle25 Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 LoL...how does it effect you from gettin any...ROFLMAOI play games everyday and i get plenty from my g/f
xvayne Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 NAv playing games doesnt effect your life. EMperor is only a small part of my life, I lift, work, rebuild my car, paint, and go out. You shouldnt make the asumption for everyone, based on your own life.
Mahdi Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 I think you're taking this thread a bit to seriously, Xvayne:)
Navaros Posted August 10, 2002 Author Posted August 10, 2002 To get a good rank in Emperor requires not-only my mad skillz, but also a mad-time-investment. Who has time to deal with work/groceries etc, sleep, devote a huge chunk of time to the Emperor Tournament, *AND* have time to pursue theGet Some... ???It's a scientific fact that devoting yourself to the Emperor Tournament will drastically decrease your Get Some quotient, unless you have a committed gf or are married, in which case you have it made! But many of us Emp players aren't at that point in our lives yet so they need to be made aware about the consequeneces devoting themselves to the Emperor Tournament will bring to their quality of life.
Timenn Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 It's just Navaros type of saying that if you are a bit tired of tournaments, you should do some other things for a month, and when you return, it's all fun again, right Nav?
Desert_Eagle25 Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 Maybe get a life cuz it's just a game and a stupid ladder wich in no way whatsoever effects your regular life unless ur one sad dude whose got nothin but his gamez... :)
Navaros Posted August 10, 2002 Author Posted August 10, 2002 Some of us take pride in our mad skillz Des_Eagle, but since you probably don't got any you would not be able to relate to how we feel hence you do not see the Tournament a serious or important (which is your perogative, but don't think the people who *DO* find the Tournament important don't have a life)I am serious about the main idea of this thread. On the months when I don't play QM, I have MUCH more time to work on the Get Some and actually end up with tangible results of that work. Some people might not realize the impact that devoting so much time to the Emperor Tournament might have on their lives. There are probably some QM players who play every month who will read this thread and think back on their lives and realize that: "yes, it WAS a lot easier to Get Some when I didn't pump so much time into the Emperor Tournament!" and hence their quality of life can improve.
Desert_Eagle25 Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 First of all, dont be so serious about games. And as Xvayne has said before, speak for your self, you dont represent any experts ont his board whatsoever. I may not have your so called "mad skillz" but atleast i dont waste my life on a game that shouldn't effect you mentally. I repeat, SHOULDN'T effect you mentally. Go get some fresh air and go get some with sum1 who means sumthin to ya, not sum hooker.
Navaros Posted August 10, 2002 Author Posted August 10, 2002 ick I don't associate with hookers. that's NOT what this thread is about. (besides nothing is easier than picking up the phone to order one, that is the easiest thing in the world to do, and it takes *no time* at all, not that I would ever do it because that's icky!)Sure this game should affect you mentally if you want it to. I take pride and pleasure in winning in Emperor.
GhostHunter Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 Yes, yes, I mean dam of course you win, those newbs dont seem to be getting any harder eh nav? And you dont associate yourself with hookers, just your mom ;D. But as for me I got a hot ass hell g/f, any everythings working out. Until next post, Vilgent.
Desert_Eagle25 Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 (besides nothing is easier than picking up the phone to order one, that is the easiest thing in the world to do, and it takes *no time* at all, not that I would ever do it because that's icky!)how would u know...? ;)
Taqwa11 Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 Well, there are certainly nights when I could have "gotten some" but didn't because my wife fell asleep while I was playing Emperor or some other PC game.Also count the many hours I COULD HAVE been spending with the kids, but instead I was playing Emperor or some other PC game.I have a very time-consuming job, and I still find time to play a couple of days a week and still "get some." It's just when you let a game--or any other hobbby--consume you that you're going to have to regret missing something. Just think, Nav, when you are seventy years old and suffering from a bad back and hemmoroids from sitting so many hours in your computer chair, and you can't get it up without Viagra, and you see some young, supple, shapely thing walk by outside your window, you're really going to regret those 25 years of accumulated PC gaming tourney time that you wasted when you could have been out there getting some. LOL
Navaros Posted August 10, 2002 Author Posted August 10, 2002 Yes Taq that is so true. You are reinforcing the message I am trying to get across with this thread. Many Emperor players will not be consciously aware of why they are hardly ever able to Get Some unless this is explained to them. I urge every longtime QM player to consider this concept and do like Taq says while you still can.
Elite47 Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 Actually, for him it's more like choking the old sand trout.Damnit i didn't get to the thread fast enough to make that joke ;DOk, but seriously, if you devote as much time into emperor as youre talking about then you are as lame as it gets. I DO play emperor a lot,but only when im wiating for something to do, at night when the day is almost over etc...Point is I play Emp *ALOT* but it isnt even a high priority to me, and im out with my friends everyday having fun, and 'getting some'.
sarb Posted August 10, 2002 Posted August 10, 2002 Some advise nav, when you finally get some dont complain how big the hole is between her ass cheeks ;)
