Up until today, I have never checked my opponents SIM player stats. Well, now I will.

I recently lost a Final because of trusting my opponent stats and not checking them.

Someone today brought this to my attention.

If it was a mistake, then lets check the stats to avoid "mistakes" in the future.

If it was a "choice", then shame on someone looking to take advantage of peoples trust.

Check the stats guys, take a few seconds....it can cost you a title. :?

Dude, that's weak man. Very weak. Shame on your opponent. Gee, I wonder who it could be.

If it was a mistake, then the honorable thing would be for your opponent to forfeit the title for now and replay the match.

Agreed

I know im not the most orthodox player myself but have always stuck to the rules , even tho i wasnt a fan of the new SIM at first il admit but of course that was just a fear of the unknown and i think its great but yes the honorable thing in this instance is at the very least to replay the match

The match is in the books. I don't wish for a replay. After all it was my mistake, I should look at the stats.

I just want to make sure that no one else makes this mistake.

I was just a bit taken back by the whole thing, it never even crossed my mind to check the stats.....and it should have.

Oh. That sucks. I never check it, either. I guess I should start. What kind of difference was it like stat-wise?

It was the old Sim setup, the one that got changed. It is less of the stat advantage and more of the the fact...you know....kinda sucks.

Anyway, I think I might of made a mistake with opening this thread.

Maybe Rob or Cro can close it for me.


Just check the stats guys, that's all I am saying....take the 10 seconds.

To be honest, I think all of the guys that beat me on SIM had inflated stats. I would like a rematch w/ all of them too please. Hosts, get to work!

Well, I don't know why :lol:

I guess you can say because it is not wrong :?

I mean If your opponent shows up with 4x100 and you go ahead and play the match....you sorta agree to it, so you can't no longer say anything.

I should have checked. That's all. :oops:

:lol: That's funny Andy :lol:

Nahh, it wasn't like that it was simply an old Sim setup, that is why it didn't caught my eye right away.

I would not start a match with 4 x 100 :lol:

Bottom line is I went thru the match and lost. So it is done.

BTW, I am not the only one that got "played" :lol: that makes it feel a bit better. :lol:
