It's really very boring when people don't say anything thoughout games - and to be perfectly honest it's insulting to be ignored.
<i>After coming back from being afk on irc and finding someone had been insulted by my lack of reply (sorry) I will try me damndest to make sure and change my nick if I'm afk but if i dont reply to an irc message and it doesn't say im aafk it probably means im broswing some questionable content on the web....</i>
I dont foul much myself tho that's not to say I'm a big sisy and will cry if I'm fouled - I just dont see the point in fouling every turn for 16 turns. Also I'm here to have fun, not to engage in deathly serious battles of wits and strategy , so if I dont think a game will be fun I wont play it, that might be because you have 4 dirty players and I think that may say something, or it might be because Dwarf on Dwarf is BORING. Who knows.
