[POLL] A Tough Poll To Conduct (or vote in):

[Fyron]

This will tell you all about the Kazharii Imperium. Incidentally, that is where my screen name comes from, and why I am an Imperator (same reason Master Belisarius is a Master, in fact).

There is no RP involved in a 1 v 1 game. I am not really too fond of the 1 v 1 setting. This is why I dropped out of KOTH. I shall consider your proposition.

Well, 2 remarks...(or maybe 3...seems to be that way for me )...before I begin the read...I want to be sure I know the pronunciation...I'm anal like that. I want to pronouonce it like this: "kahz - HAR - ee - ee". Is that right? (I like names).

Saying you shall consider the proposition seems, to me, like a person scared about accepting the proposition, yet wanting to project the image of not being scared. However, I think you to be a person of straight-forward comments and will classify this remark as one of a person who is too busy (other games and school work) to commit.

Not to "pressure" you into a match...you should know I try to keep my game slots to a set level...and therefore, will not be able to let this be an open-ended challenge.

As we say in the south (that poor section of the US), "Poop or get off the pot!" (Well, that was the nicer Version... )

Well, we are getting a few responses now. And, of course, it becomes easier to vote as the number of votes accumulate. Easier to vote a difficult vote. The number of votes makes it easier to vote while maintaining a bit of anonomity.

Thanks in advance for your participation.

Well, all you long time hotshot SEIV players should join the Zeta Qudarnt game, which, becuase of the structure of it, will be very competitive...and work it out that way...

BTW, I posted the 2 questions for a reason. You may think about it when voting.

I wondered who people thought were the best players. And I also thought there might be a difference when a person had to list whom they would prefer to play with.

In other words, I think everyone likes to win. BUT, for an example, I'm not sure I would want to play with a person who dictated the entire game plan to me..."Do this, DO that!". Yeah, maybe we would win but to be a puppet might not be in the interest of everyone...win or not.

To give a recent example...a team effort with Alneyan and myself. Though our ability and Ratings may have differed a bit, I thought (think) our discussion on tactics and research, etc. was such that we both felt like each of us played an important part in the game outcome.

There was a game in the past where 3 of us challenged 3 others. In that game, I took a "supporting" role. Used my racial points to the advantage of my teammates. This is the point I am aiming for when I ask about who you would like as an ally. This is NOT to say I am the greatest ally around (and am certainly not trying for votes)...I'm just trying make a distinction between who the greatest (in opinion) players are and who you would prefer playing with in a team game.

Does that make sense?

I usually pronounce it like "kah - zahr - ee". The "z" and "h" mix together to make a slightly elongated "z" sound. The two "i"s just form one hard "e" sound. Kazharii spelling is weird like that. I like weird spellings. This is why I tend to use design name files like Adunaic and Kuzhdul (they are in Design Names Anthology). I should get around to finishing that Kazharii design names file...

Yeah, I can see how you would think that.

Far too much schoolwork for my own good. :-\ I have cut down to just 10 PBW games! I swear!

I will ally with Tesco and/or Georgig any day. They really know how to form an integrated alliance when the need arises!
