- Oh, and by the way, Seth, these people who switch off don't always
- beat me the first round...in fact, it's usually just the opposite.
- If they can't beat me, they call in a "master" to come beat me. That's
- the whole pattern...one person at least stalls a round, until the
- master is available, who comes in and beats you, then switches off
- to another master or at least someone who has a track record at beating
- you, so they can go off to machine # X and do the same. Then, once
- you're outta the picture, the original player gets to keep playing.
-
- LIke I said, until they either slip up (a master isn't availble for
- a crucial round), or you finally manage to beat the barrage of players
- they throw at you, they can monopolize the machines for HOURS. and
- even when you DO finally win, they have the nerve to just toss in
- another quarter (despite the line of quarters waiting) and just switch
- off between masters until they get you off the machine again.
-
- In fact, they'll sometimes switch off MID-ROUND if they're desparate
- enough (really causing you confusion).
-
- How can you possibly consider this "fighting his own battles", much
- less fair OR respectful to your opponent? Well?
