Talking

could not find any stratigytips on this. but general rule is talk, at least when talked to.

if you are planning to fight for second, tell it to the leader.
scenario : three players at A:12, B:8 and C:9 fullstacked terretories.
leader has a good lead, but aren't usually that comfortable.

player B says, I am going to flag, going for second.
player C is silent. (but planning on fighting for 2nd)

most cases leader will attack player C to preemptive strike him, instead of letting him fight for second.

PART 2:
whenever you are flagging, tellit in the chat:
PLAYER: flagging for 3rd.

do this for two reasons;
people are often more concerned with keeping an eye on the chat than the acctual place the flag comes up.

second reason;
there will often be a lagg in the system preventing the flag to go through, I once had to press the flagbutton 5 times before it wnt through it is easy to just flag and then assume it goes through.

talking is usually a good idea.

the chatbox is there for a reason.

absolutely: talk to the guys you're playing with (when you're in the mood) - and stop ninja flagging for 2nd! :)

Actually talking is a very important part of the game.

It is not needed to base you're entire strategy on it but a minimal activity on the chat is vital. Not everyone is able to write fluently in english but the basics should be enough to make your plans clear (if you want them to be clear of course)

how often have i not encountered people that never respond to me in the chat and when they get killed by me 10 rounds later, simply type "why me" or "asshole" afterwards.

You just have to understand that radio silence is usually understood as dangerous and I too don't respond well to silence : better be safe than sorry.

thanks for that mr kreuzfield - good advice!

however, there have been a few times when i have been in a roughly equal position to someone else, and offered them a truce, when instead of replying, they just attack me. any ideas?
