"also, what would you guys say if I was to tell you that I won that game? because i did.."

this is the perfect example of a game that a good player would win like 20-30% of the time, but weaker players would flag and fight for 3rd from your pos.

and still we have players that are saying that the good players only win because they cheat, while they never get anywhere because all the other players are cheating. and they would NEVER be able to win from this pos

<---agrees with the wise words of Mr K

I don't know much about this whole flagging business, but it appears to me that teal is actually in the strongest position. Since it's blue's turn, teal will go before yellow looking at that map. Brown at best will do 2v1 2x, which doesn't really change much of the board. Teal should expand into the west, not moving the 3's. Those expansion should wipe out much of red and making it more difficult for yellow to connect. Purple might even take that yellow 1 stack thus further weakening yellow. Unless yellow makes some bold moves, just based upon this snapshot, and assuming all the players don't suck, teal should win...

But what do I know.

well does that mean everyone should start flagfest in round 2? my school of thought is when someone has what looks like a win in round 1/2, team up and beat him

1. Props for winning if you did.
2. Yellow and Brown should not have flagged
3. If they hadn't flagged you would have been in a weaker position later on.
4. I hate retarded flags, but without seeing the rest of the game, I would say they made it possible for you to win.

That is really sad.......
