I ran into a situation where DCEM said to me nat to play own balle, so i decided to ask him why nat, what's the matter if i play own balle?
I hardly ever win own balle,
I always test levs, but i never compete for victory, i just want to post some time, see what styles i can use and sach. DCEM saw something wrong in that;
he thinks "it's stupid to play own balle". I just dont understand why nat. If i dont try to win, i just want to play along, not sit tight and spy, what is wrong?
DCEM explained that "it is some old rule from #balle", i dont understand why should't ballestarter play own level, if nat win anyway?
I was really rude to DCEM, chatting inside belma and asking him why nat. Why in the hell nat.
But now i decided to post a poll and test what everyone is thinking of PLAYING, NOT WINNING own balle. Very many people play their own levels, only noobs win them, i don't even remember when i last won own balle (it only happens in accident anyway, if does).
EDIT: yes, dcem said to me that he looks like the bad guy in this post, well that's what i felt at the moment. But to mention, blix was following DCEM.
I apologize to anyone, especially to DCEM, i just feel i have been walked over.

I can play own battles whenever I feel like, and if I win it means I'm a cold hearted bastard mostly. I used to win more own battles in the past, because it were more firsh finishes before, and I wanted to have it at least finished by one guy, even if that person would be me.
But I agree, winning on own levels is something you should avoid at all cost; remember the F12 button please. Most pleasant would be the ignore time by battlestarter function ofcourse, but we all agree with that, don't we?

i think you can randomly cruise in your own levels but, can't really hoyl for the win... that's just not fair as you've already played (tested) the level and you kinda know the main styles before other players.

usually i spy my levels 80% of the duration, then if no-one's trying/succeeding/noticing the fastest style i finish with it once just to show it. some don't like it, but i usually spent a long time fixing the style and if i just post a link to the rec on #ballelma maybe 3 people will check it, so i'd feel the level was wasted. and as zamppe said, there's no stats, so the only thing you're missing is seeing a replay of a mediocre run with a mediocre style!
