im pretty good we can do ts or td
Awkwarrrrrd
He said pretty good there was really no need to link his stats, I hope you feel a certain sense of accomplishment right now.
If someone says they're "pretty good", they are basically saying they're fairly skilled. Let's define skill. Being significantly below average does not fit that definition at all. How anyone can even tell themselves, let alone other people, that they're "pretty good" when they go negative in eight out of ten ranked games is beyond me. It's an annoyance at best.
Your perception of 'pretty good' will almost certainly be different to his as you play at a different level than him, that does not mean that you need to link his stats, to make him look bad. He did not say 'I'm pretty good I can hold my own at 50 high dubs' did he, you are just being 'awkward'.
How you can take the word pretty good, change it to 'fairly skilled'and then post a link too the definition of skilled which doesn't take into account the prior adverb of 'fairly' which in itself defines your adjective (Skill,)is beyond me.
For the record pretty:
adverb- fairly or moderately: Her work was pretty good.
Moderately:
adjective-mediocre or fair: moderate talent.
So just to conclude:
Pretty good- mediocre, fairly good, moderately good.
Skill- competent excellence in performance; expertness; dexterity: The dancers performed with skill.
They are totally different descriptions of his ability to play a video game. He did not say he was skilled all he basically said was 'I'm ok at H3 anyone want to play with me'. You quoted him and linked his stats because he is not as good as yourself, which helps nobody, all you succeeded in doing, was making yourself look like an idiot. People putting others down in the context of a video game is 'an annoyance at best'.
