At least it was something I could reply to . . . how can I reply to a comment about language skill from someone that's been so wronged by the language that he abuses it so? :)
happy hermit: As I see it the only way to abuse language is by using it to hurt someone intentionally. Everyone has a different personal style and uses the words and expressions belonging to you.
People will not only recognise me as Dutch by the flag but also by the flaws in my English. That's only natural. Jonaron doesn't say much so I don't know about his English. The amount of speech is a big difference between jonaron and quiet man ;)
I'm sure they're not the same because I don't see either of them misleading us by joining a tournament twice. Also the playing style seems different to me. Jonaron plays more careful I think. He plays with more caution. Quiet man starts to play careful when it matters.
Well, Eric, you or Jonaron are the only ones who can answer this question for us.
happy hermit: Did you and jonaron ever play against eachother? I'd love to see such a match! :)
The one thing about looking at a match between 2 others is that you don't know what they can see unless you go through a lot of trouble noting it down. Which is hard enough when you're playing a game yourself.
In League events, we played Open in Season 6 (I won) and Season 8 (a draw). We also played Mini in a Speed Rush event. I forget the event, but he won our individual game.
And, we have played in some random IYT tournies over the years with pretty even results.
Of course, as you so accurately put it, "careful when it matters" starts at Move 1 with jonaron so he gets a different version of my game that almost anyone else. :)
happy hermit: I followed all the thread about the identities of jonaron and quite man. I'm afraid only people coming from IYT may read that. Maybe someone should explain other players who really is quite man............
dAGGER: I think the clues are there for anyone to figure it out, but the short version is that happy hermit = quiet man = argyle socks = Eric Hanson etc.. I change my account every time I change computers. And I am no relation to jonaron . :)
