Love my girl, 4/11/11.

I'm a Colonel, but I'm way better than "bad." I'd say good, since I easily beat Brigs but I nearly always lose against legit 50s.

Guide to immortality : Sleep with Life

I had a pretty big time thread once.

Here's me bragging about it.

Terrible. At best very inconsistent.

I consider myself good, not fanFREAKINtastic though.

I guess though according to your rules, i'm just average.

Your scale is horrible skewed.

  • 08.17.2010 8:53 PM PDT

Butthurt? Good....go fist a goat.

Average compared to most other 50s I think.

Better than most of the h3 population though.

Compared to everybody that I know that plays Halo, I'm awesome. Compared to those MLG kids who play for money, I'm trash.

If you say the word pwned or have 420 in your name, you should be pummled over the head with a ball peen hammer. Wake up and smell reality, you poser.

"Compared to everybody that I know that plays Halo, I'm awesome. Compared to those MLG kids who play for money, I'm trash."

Matt1983:Thickest and Maulers title should be "Im black"
Thickest: Not bad. Simple and to the point. "Affirmative Action" works as well.
Matt198: lulz. we need 2 more members. Who else is black?
Saiyan: Im sort of light-brownish. Does that count?
Mcgooch: LOL. no
Saiyan: I give up
Thickest: LMAO

Its been a while since I read a rate yourself thread.
As usual I lol'd several times at the responses.
Thank you OP.

I'm not making excuses. I never claimed to be good. I have never played any colonel better than me though.

Yes I am from Lebanon & yes that is in the middle east!
Yes I am a Muslim & yes I am proud of it!
LEBO is short for Lebanese, so yeah. Anyway My name is Amer Shahen (Shahen means Falcon or Eagle in arabic) lol I can't speak arabic that well. Amer is pronounced Amir just like Yusuf Amir off GTA4. I don't hate Americans either BTW.
Have fun, go hard and most of all respect your fellow gamers.

Be completely honest with yourself.

Here's my definition of the 5 categories, but of course, skill is a subjective term, and I'd like to see what you define skill as.



Great- someone who truly excels at the game, think pros and well known MLG 50s.

Good- someone with multiple 50s that they play on and maintain easily, usually players who have been around for a while.

Average- 45-50 range, people who might not have been around for very long and are still learning how to play properly, but manage to be proficient with most weapons.

Bad- Majors to Colonels. They've gotten past the halfway mark in terms of numerical skill, but, imo, there really isnt' much of a skill gap between these players. Often new players, sometimes veterans who either never showed true talent or never cared enough to utilize what talent they may have.

Terrible- Captains and below, almost always new players who aren't very proficient with the weapons and know next to nothing about strategy.



With all that said, I'd consider myself to be average.


How can the rating be set on rank alone? Rank doesn't show skill. Not all good players play matchmaking as much as hardcore players.. I stick with custom games.. over 4.1k played.. 760 social, 450 or so ranked and i'm a Major Grade 3 with skill of 30 in lonewolves. Does this make me "Bad"?

  • 08.18.2010 1:16 AM PDT

I'd say I was once good, but then stopped for around a year and have only just started getting back into it and I'm finding 50 high slayer and doubles not as easy as they once were, at least searching in teams. I'm hoping to stick myself in the good-great category for reach, but we'll see what happens.

It depends who you play the customs with. People that are actually good, or other low-level players? Also, what kind of customs? I don't consider anyone who doesn't play anyone but Infection customs good, since Infection takes no skill and maybe the slightest bit of strategy.

Yes.

450 ranked matches is plenty enough to achieve higher than a 30.

I'm good, I have no 50's (I'm a leutenant =P) But I play the game for fun and mainly on social gametypes, but when I ramp it up on TS I can kick some ass fairly easily, 50's or not =D

May 11 will be known as Halo 2 Day for me from now on.

Well Ive been in the Navy since June 25, 2009 and its a fun job right now.

  • 08.18.2010 7:03 AM PDT

Compared to the vast majority, yes. However, in my mind, those who I've defined as average have hit the halfway point in actual skill.
