severe lack of competition

yea! Like why is there such a severe lakc of competition these days? I remember back about 2 yrs ago there were so many good players that were unbeatable and would always beat me but now i'm winning games! unheard of! what happened to people like MuffNCuffs/!!Ewe♥♥♥♥♥!!, PinkGlass, Acid/Incognito, Quicker, nyboy91, The_Assassin, iGuess, Thulasi, Nessarose, Triangulus, Notig, and others? they were so good! it's sad to not see them much nemore. come back!

if you're looking for more competition try a special room or even a basic or expert one once and a while when they're open

I think there is still loads of competition out there. I don't know what rooms you go into but i know that in some Easy UK rooms, there's always competition. I won't name names but i know that they're there!

Some of the people you mentioned are also members of the forum, and i play against a lot of them all the time, maybe you're just out of luck and never find them, but they're around. Yet, they play in the expert rooms. None of the dinosaurs or the good players play in easy rooms, or they hardly ever do anymore. You must also remember players could have changed their names and we just don't know who they are anymore. Some people also get bored of the game and stop playing.

But they always come back.

I get what you mean though. The noobs are not as good as they used to be. I guess there's phases, and right now it's not a particularly good one.

Triangulus is still around, still drawing brilliantly, and still paying me for saying that! But like me, he doesn't play in Easy.

I agree, there is lots of good players still around.

I guess its cause im always in easy and they love me

Some days you can't move for good players, other days you can only stare at the pics and spelling in disbelief. It's what makes iSketch so entertaining. OK i just play to win - the chat is just an irritating distraction

I play in Easy too. Reason being is that I come on isketch to relax and wind down; I want to have a mindless game of ease! I don't want to have to think about things - I do enough thinking in the real world! I go to work where I have to think and concentrate so the last thing I want to do before going to bed is to use my mind!
Often isketch friends are playing in Expert or other "mad" rooms, but most of them know I'm an easy girl. However, they still invite me just to tempt me!! Sometimes I'll take up their offer, stay there for two rounds and then go!!
Each to their own!! We're all there to enjoy the game like we know best!

Hey Mystery Girl, I'll play you anytime! (no pun intended, hehe)
If you want, put me on your buddy list and have an instant challenge anytime you want :D

oh and yeah I play easy rooms a LOT just because the rounds are over quickly, and I get more drawing rounds :D And call me crazy, but it's fun to see the wicked conversations of new people vs. regulars, and there's some joy in helping people with the game. :)

I usually play the tandem room, though lately I've been branching out to the easy rooms quite often. I see Incognito in tandem a lot, and sometimes run into !!Ewe and Triangulus in other rooms.. Never seen the others you named though, probably because I've only been playing iSketch for a year and a half or so

As for Muff, I've seen her around a few times and got slurrped. I actually beat her! But I feel she was going a bit easy ;) Incognito is just in different rooms, I might convince him to play a few games in the US easy again and Nessa has been off for who knows how long. Quicker is on every now and then. nyboy91... well I don't think he'll be coming back.

If you're looking for competition, try Tay, jeter-cano22 and others that they hang around with. They're tough stuff and will whoop you in to shape!

Everyone gets busy at some point or another. I play with jeter all the time and have gotten accustomed to losing. What ever happened to Engel? She was really good.

I havent seen riotgrrrl around in ages - Oh there you are up there^^^^

There has been a recent influx of other Aussies (and some Kiwi's too) playing - in fact I think there was only Spacey and 1 other in a full room the other night that were not Australians.

I played a new player last night that I have never seen before and s/he kicked arse in UK Expert. zodiac I think was the name and the IP was coming out of the UK somewhere. Red hot player. Was beating everyone by miles.

Severe lack of competition? Not really.

Severe lack of male competition? Definately.

Why are 95% of the good players female???? Poor show guys.
