I was looking at Patala, and it seems to have a

Digress, I apologize if I upset you, that wasn't my intention. The only reason I said that was to avoid the "New Ulm lost, so that means it wasn't imbalanced!" argument. People have all levels of skill, and Pangaea is a rock-solid player, and as a result you were poorly matched. He is dealing with my deranged play very effectively as well. I was certainly not trying to insult you. Pangaea may very well win the game. So you were defeated by #1 out of 21 players or #2. Not something to be upset about. But I WAS upset at Sombre, he knows better, and should keep out of arguments if he has nothing useful to say.

Sombre is making fun of an old discussion where some people argued that the monkey nations were useless, basing their whole argument into few details and refusing to discuss opposing arguments. I didn't really follow that discussion. Try searching for "monkey pd" if you're interested; the discussion took place sometime last summer or fall.

I was jokingly referring to the same, as was calmon. Seriously, we need something like argumentum ad Hitlerum / Godwin's Law for (monkey) PD on these boards.

Monkey's law : as a dominions 3 discussion about game balance grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Monkey's PD as being the weakest approaches one".

That sounds good.

PS : I therefore predict that in accordance to the Monkey's law, the discussion that will spawn from the change to tartarian during next update will include a comparison of the new power of Tartarian and monkey PD, and will say something like this : "Tartarian cannot beat anything stronger than monkey's PD !".

??? Was this what made you upset?

"munkey pd is teh weekest it is always loosing just look in ne game u will c 4 urslef"

I would say that it was somewhat useful. Perhaps not entirely seriously formulated, but a summary of a general opinion, and an answer to Calmon and Ich. It shouldn't upset anyone
