My point is, if this happens too much which it did a lot in this episode in the middle days I just 2 cubed all the bosses to close it out immediately only costing me 1 cube. I would much rather 1 cube these bosses to seed my allies but when I keep getting snaked on the MVP I took matters into my own hands. And this escalates throughout the episode as my deck gets stronger with ruby and/or space bridge pulls. This is all subjective. What *YOU* want isn't necessarily what is best for all or what is right. There is no right and wrong here other than cheating by breaking the defined rules of the game as set by Mobage. There is nothing that stops someone other than the first hitter from taking MVP therefore the first hitter is not entitled to it without actually taking it. All this setting up of allies is great, and you should continue to do that, but don't think you are entitled to it. You are enlisting their help to achieve a goal, but if you fail to achieve your goal, it is not because someone was a jerk, it is because someone is just playing the game fair and square but you want more.

Think about it. If I am not your ally, and I know that I can prevent you from seeding, and therefore helping your allies to beat me, by stealing your MVP, why wouldn't I do it? I would be dumb not to, and yet you would chastise me for playing smart!

Everyone is looking at it from their perspective never once remembering that no matter what allies you have, you are still ultimately competing with EVERYONE.

Roanoke you make a lot of valid points in your arguments in this thread and in other threads.

What I don't get from you is your tone and assumptions you made in my response and in other threads.

Case in point you stated in your response where you quoted me the following:

"What *YOU* want isn't necessarily what is best for all or what is right" - I Never said anything was right or wrong and all I wanted was to seed my allies.

"All this setting up of allies is great, and you should continue to do that, but don't think you are entitled to it" - I never said I was

" if you fail to achieve your goal, it is not because someone was a jerk" - I never said anyone was a jerk

"and yet you would chastise me for playing smart!" - I didn't chastise anyone

Your final quote - "Everyone is looking at it from their perspective never once remembering that no matter what allies you have, you are still ultimately competing with EVERYONE."

Which is exactly why I stated I took matters into my own hands and added cubes and just didn't seed. That was my whole point if my MVP gets snagged I will adjust accordingly.

Please don't be so argumentative. If I misunderstood your statements I apologize, I just don't like a direct response to my quote the I perceive misrepresents what I am saying!
