So, Alldarker has alzheimer's and can't remember anything he's ever said. I wonder if there is a way to find his old posts to show him... oh, what's that? There is? It's a search function? Holy crap! That's amazing! Whoever thought of that, should get a nobel prize!
So, here's some interesting posts I found. Rather dated, but still kinda relevant.
The only reason he doesn't level up, is lack of competetion. Granted, this was so long ago, that level 4 was a rare breed and beast factions where still in play (Why, there's a young AZ, in his natural Predacon habitat), but we don't seem to have that problem now, yet he would still rather find excuses "I need 20 million XP to level up, rawr."
Complaining about losing positioning from the SPL. Odd that he didn't complain about how when it ended, it allowed him to shoot up higher, because of the bots dropped into getting the average of the next six behind them. And his point while valid that he lost a bunch of places, is also invalid, because he was complaining about the top players, I can tell you, in all honesty, that 1, he had a chance to join, chose not to, his problem, and secondly, there wasn't really any changes at all in the top 20.
Yet another example of AD blaming others (IE me) for his short comings. Funny, if he only had good builds, it would never matter who was in the missions with him. How often I see Con's posting about winning when they're out numbered. Ah. For shame. To be fair though, I did say my team sucked.
This one actually shows that at one point, I was 9th And the post below is AD feeling the need to justify himself by posting an outnumbered beatdown brag, because he was beat down before, in a fair fight.
Hey, that old savior poll. I didn't actually vote for myself, and I did recruit a bunch of RDDers to vote. Not for me, but for anyone not AD.
It's why that kid on Burn's lawn on. Which was my location for a while. This is more fun than AD's alzhiemrs help, but I'll get back on target. As an aside, whatever happened to the weekly polls?
Here's what I was looking for... AD telling Zordon how to play, even though he says that's why he trolls me, because he thinks I'm telling him how to play. This was before he said that to me though. Ah well. That's a pretty big hypocrasy there AD.
So, in the past, AD has claimed the only thing keeping him from leveling up quickly, is competition, though, in his defense, he has leveled up in the past with 'weaker builds' and promptly leveled back down because he lost.
He reached rank 3 playing for the Autobots. Hey, good job. I reached rank 9 mostly playing for one of the two factions known for not having enough player to sustain itself. We had what? 20 Preds, spread across a whole bunch of timezones? Me, Spidey, Loki, Red, and N_V being the most active of them, if memory serves. Which one is more impressive? I don't know. Would I still be 9th or higher if I didn't take time away? Who knows. Don't really care, it is what it is.
Now for some current garbage to deal with.

medium yield: in fact they have a low risk,
HIGH yield on their investment, which _Anshin_ proved, and which I am proving every day. Fast builds like yours do have a chance of getting a high score once in a while, but about as much chance as any lower level has of hitting a high level.
You are trying to run when you can't even walk. And it's a real waste of XP to make a fast build when that same XP could make a perfectly fine lower level build providing a higher yield.[/url]
You don't understand, and you never will, but I'm retarded, so I have to try to explain it to you. See, let's just break it down pretty simply. Strong builds are not high yield. They are medium yield. They have a higher peak sometimes, and they don't bottom out as often, but they're just a medium yield for the amount of XP you're investing in them. If they were high yield, there would be no chance at all of catching them, and I wouldn't have been able to pass up some of Burn and Anshin's guys, just to name a few. You have 250 million XP invested. I have just hit 50 million. Your pay off nets you about 11-14 million a week. Yes, you're out gaining me, oh teh noes. Whatever, what I have been trying to explain to you, is while I may never out gain you in an individual mission, or even pass you by before I get bored of the game once again (which is why you passed me in the first place, let's be honest here, you took 3rd because a bunch of people stopped playing or played reduced time and other factors, such as the end of the SPL) but, I digress, my pitiful investment of about 46 million XP, netted me just short of 4 million. Yes, significantly less than yours, but when you compare investments, it's actually kind of high. Most of that 4m gain was from Gauntlet, who was level 7 for that. He's on pace to make 1m himself this week, assuming the RNG decides to stop being a hater. Anshin had a better return on his investment than you, and I'm pretty sure he's playing less right now. Now, do I think you could gain more of your investment back, if you leveled up? I don't know. The top end of the game can be tricky in that regard. And I'm not saying my builds are perfect, however, maybe two weeks ago, you're all "Hey, Gauntlet's getting good cuts of XP" and this week, when the RNG decides he's it's own personal redheaded stepchild to beat with a stick, you bring out the "Oh, your build sucks! It should be lower leveled!" Which is flipflopping on two things, telling me how to play (again. you like doing that for someone who doesn't like to be told how to play...) and flipflopping on accepting that he's not got a bad build. Here's a hint. His build hasn't changed from when he was making good cuts, neither has his competition.
Here, you're just spiting in the face of pretty much everyone who's ever played this game. Even ANSHIN has said the RNG sometimes won't refresh it's seed, which, to me, indicates that if you get crapped on, and the RNG doesn't refresh it's seed, you're going to get crapped on again. It happens. To ignore that fact, well, it just makes you ignorant. However, you also fail to understand that for 1 person in the mission to do amazing, someone else has to do poorly.
And once again, you're throwing your "He should play this way" into the mix, this time with the modifer "If it where up to me, which it's not, but if it was" which just makes you even more of a twit. If you don't want people telling you how to play, don't **** tell others, you god damn hypocrite.
But, since you want to. Here's what. Level the **** up. It would be better for the game. You'd see a whole lot more crazy high XP scores if you and everyone else, leveled the **** up. 200k XP wouldn't be hard to reach. Nor would 300k XP if people would level up. That's -why- I level up, so people can score better XP off of me. Oh, yeah, I could sit on my ass at lower levels, and boost my win% and maybe boost my XP (probably not though, since Gauntlet is playing as much as my lower levels, and Inertia, and out gaining her and a level 5 off my team combined.)
I would copy your other post, but I am pretty sure I cited enough of your own posts there to prove my point and I didn't feel the need to quote a post you edited to make even more trolling. So, STFU you **** hypocrite. Please. Grownups are trying to have a conversation here.
