The Game - Utopia

I've playing this online game for awhile now. The game got the twists and it's own turn. The best thing is I am learing more about human nature through the game. The truth about the player will come out once we happened to lose the war.

In this game the player choose their own roles to play in a group of a players known as kingdom. Each player will be assign a province to manage. The province should have a good defence, attackers, thieves and wizards and food to survive the world. The utopian world is full of wars. Losing the wars somehow seems unacceptable to some of the players.

Yesterday, one of the player defected from our group to the other kingdom because of me. How good am I at geeting on people nerve? He was new player in our kingdom. Since his arrival, he love to point out that he was a good player, had been playing the game for ages and his province have the best statistics. He also like to prick on our group leader and sometimes up to insulting.

Then, he suggested that we went into a war to avoid attacked from other kingdoms who seems much more bigger. He seems very much motivated to get us into war and war we went. But something amused happened. He stop attacking. Then, I just point the forum of the kingdom that someone who love to brag was out of the pictures during the war. He was upset and he gave reason that if he attacked, he would got retaliated and would losing acres of land. Then I said, attacked for small land and left the huge defence at home. He then attacked for huge amount of acres, got plummeled, blamed me and left.

I am still wondering of how big is his heart? How is his life outside Utopia? The whole group can see through his action that he's using me as an excuse to left the game. Very funny.
