Re: [Grand Slam] Roland Garros 2010 - Play has begun!

Cnelson stop being so sensitive. Part of this game's attraction is trying to make characters like their real-life players. Your stats are fine BUT you chose Capriati - who is nothing like your character. Maybe if you would have chosen someone like Rezai or Mirza it would have been believable, but Capriati has a shoddy bachand and is very fast around the court - yet your BH is 90 and your speed is 50. It doesn't add up. No one is accusing you of cheating but yes realism is preferred, it's in the rules. No one wants you to go away, it's just a suggestion to add some realism.

Fine, however when you take time to play a match that was arranged, its no excuse for your opponent to quit. I can make a new character or figure out something after the tournament.

The other thing is well I have seen stats on others that too me dont match the player there representing as well. Im just defending myself cause i feel like im getting attacked to be honest.

Nobody's attacking you, or atleast that's not my (and I assume nobody else's) intention. It's always nice to have another player on tour and I like having you here.

Also, yeah, Justin's stats aren't really realistic :p But we're all afraid of him.

I inflate my stats (this is a game after all) but I do try to put my higher stats in the right categories. If the player has a better fh than bh my version of them will have a beetter fh than bh. I thought it was odd that Capriatis bh was rated so high. I figured it would have been the forehand. With that said I dont think it matters that much and thats not why I lost the match. I dont really care if what my opponents stats are as long as nothing is above 90. Watson, Wickmayer and Lisicki (when I played her) had better stats than their real life counterparts. If youre better than you opponent it shouldnt have much of an effect. Ive beaten players with 100 and 95 in serve, fh, bh and power with my female players.

I actually think it would be a good idea to let us create our own original players instead of basing them on WTA players. My Mexico player Burrito Gonzales is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I love the idea of using real wta players, it sorta gives the player a identity more than a gamertag, i just did not know that your player had to replicate everything to the tee. I sorta thought this was like the wta alternate universe, its them but you can make there stats anything as long as there 90 and below. ,I would have picked Davenport but its taken, because I like playing slow big babe tennis so sue me.

Oh, Capriati's everything is 90 except Speed, Stamina and Volley. ;)

But yes Cnelson we don't want you out :shrug: we would like as many players as we can. It's not a huge issue but we prefer realism, that's all :shrug: And yeah Davenport is available. :)

Re: [Grand Slam] Roland Garros 2010 - Play has begun!

it's nothing about you being worth playing as of now. i admit, i didnt do the right thing but please, this is nothing to feel upset about a week later. maybe we should have played the same day after all the crap idk, but it did not happen that way. I apologize for clearly upsetting you. So i just asked if you may have wanted to finally play, just to be fair to you. Why, because you flipped out, feeling as if you were being attacked which i didn't want you to get that impression; I'm sure we all on this tour wouldn't try to do that. I overreacted because the stats were just unrealistic so again sorry. This was all my fault.

I met you to play our match last week, your the one who quit. so if I was not worth playing last week why should i be worth playing now? to be more direct , no im not playing
any further.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
But your bitterness is not needed, as i do understand why, but let's not turn this into a petty matter. I'm trying to be fair no matter how long ago the match was supposed to have taken place. And even if you did not want to play, i'm giving an apology. Thanks for the walkover.
