we havent played for a while Epon, are you avoiding me?
Or am I avoiding you?

You play too many and too long matches against Vmoe. I miss you and would like to change the first number of your points to a 6 again.

i dont know if we should though, I mean this game is full of errors and unfair matches , there is no way to say one played better than the other even if it is a crushing 3-0 defeat, we should just not play online, I mean all these matches I have played with this underlying sense of unfairness, it is just garbage, in fact I am so angry I am going to burn the disc in a sacrificial bonfire and then kick my tv screen in with my foot and send EA Sports the bill.

That, or just put up with the flaws and play and enjoy, win or lose!!!!
Anyway no player puts me under more pressure than you, yet no player gives me more satisfaction when I win, so lets organize an unfair laggy glitchy buggy teleporty game!!!

I would say the complete rankings are nothing more than a coincidence. They just show, who benefitted most from unfairness (player choice, errors).

CmonChrissy,

just played you @ about 2 pm EST (Saturday), just wanted to ask if you noticed any lag on your end..?

Not saying it had anything to do with my collapse in that tiebreak hehe, was just curious if it was only my end or both...every match I've played at the French today/lately has been real bad, especially with teleporting and such.

Our match specifically I recall twice on my serve, the ball was on the way up, and....sat there. Finally it came back down, but it was a serious pause. Again, no excuses or nothing, just curious (bc my connection today has been spotty at best). There were also a few moments mid-rally where it occurred on my end.

Anyways, good match/game, even though I knew to be ready for a whole lotta slicing from you, it still managed to goof me up numerous times. I don't remember the last time I had so many shots bounce past me/cross me up like that. Definitely enjoyed it however, even though I took to the net a few more times than I typically do (def. nerves-a-rattling)...you saw to it that I looked a fool on most attempts...had me backpeddling all day.

Hope to be paired up with ya again sometime (I was BuckeyeKeel, if you don't remember)

***Edit to add: I knew that playing you on the clay was going to be a serious (additional) disadvantage, and I was tempted to opt out before we even started, but I couldn't pass up the chance to play you (the highest ranked person I've ever been paired against). I would seriously love to play you on/@ any other surface, although I wouldn't expect the outcome to be any different (or even as close). If you're ever up for it let me know! Thanks again***

i played around 4 matches today and in one of them there was lag, I think it may have been your match. It was like the ball froze in mid air, but normally on your side of the court, it was pretty weird , but not match-destroying. It is amazing how different matches can vary online, playing Europeans online on grass is a great experience, vs anywhere else on clay for example, it can be patchy. You should have been even more volleyery, it was the best part of your game, and your serve. Although I think when there is less lag, good serves are less effective.
The tie break is where I got my butt off the sofa and tried to play better!

Epon you erase your speiler account?:O

It was my "pro account", Aik my "created account", now I fuzed them.

Well, another top10 place free, cool!

So, is it just AIK now or do you still have other accounts? For a while there I was beginning to wonder if every person I played from Germany was you under a different name. If I managed to win then I knew it was someone else

Look at the country rankings. There are many German players. Only if your opponent plays absolutely brilliant tennis, it could be me.

Are you Bronxy?

Yes, but there aren't many Germans online between 6-10pm EST. You are one of the few I come across on a semi-regular basis.

If you've played bronxy recently, it was me. That's actually my girlfriends account. She played 10-15 games, but that was over a month ago and she hasn't played since. I've been using it on and off over the last two weeks to experiment with different players and practice w/ my created DB.

Although you are the same player, I was always more afraid of Speiler than Aik, so I am glad he has vanished!!!!

Strange how mentally affected I can get by stupid things.

Anyway now Speiler has left the game I feel like Steffi Graf when Monica Seles got stabbed and had to stop playing for almost 3 years, leaving Graf to collect those titles.......oh my gaaaaaaad I shouldnt say that people might start to realise my age.

Also, noticing a huge choke sensation when the player is leading 2-0 40-0 is a good sign it might be him.....Jooooooooke!!
