Sorry to spoil the party, but I heard from an M.D. friend of mine that tofu is probably harmful to males because of a hormone-like chemical compound that it contains. Regular consumption of this compound apparently causes reduction of testosterone in males. He also told me that some Buddhist monasteries encourage the monks to eat lots of tofu in order to minimze sex drive. Even so, if someone gives me an "Eat some tofu" trophy, I will gladly accept the (positive?) sentiment.
Trophy Giving
Yes soy has a relatively high estrogen content. E-tofu, not so much.
"Tofu is like your brain, tastes like whatever you marinate it in" careful what you read.
It's my impression that women players exchange trophies more often than guys do. (We're all just so darn nice!)
oh wow i got a trophy from him too except it was the pizza one
eric gave me one to
yeah sorry aris but i was looking at your trophies and you didn't have one from him/me/both of us.
I recently received a have some tofu trophy from nd997, and my brother did too. I started checking other trophy cases(I do that for fun)and they all had it from nd997. Is it a coincidence that I checked the ones that had it or did everyone else receive it?
I got one to
It's his way of quite trolling
Hey, sirrichard, what is the point of earning 100's of trophies in a rating group that you're obviously too good for, when I reckon you'll probably learn more, improve your game and better yourself by competing in a more challenging higher rating group ?
He can't earn trophies in a rating he's too good for 'cos when he wins games his rating will increase therefore automatically putting him into a higher rating range and establishing how good his skill reallly is?!!
Well my rating is the highest i can get it, i never intentionaly lose a game to keep my rating at a certain level. (That would be sandbagging which is and should be illegal here). Now i could enter the open tournaments but i prefer to play games where I an evenly matched or have a slight edge over the other players. I have played in plenty of tournaments here where i haven't placed. I would guess i only get a cyber-trophy 40% of the time (although that is just a guess it might even be lowwer). My main point is that in a 1200-1499 (for example) if your playing strength happens to be in the 1400s you have a more likely chance to place than someone whose rating is in the 1200s or 1300s.
Your best bet is to start new tournaments with yourself as tournament director with a lower rating range, with your rating at the top-end of that range -therefore winning all the trophies eh..??
