•Scammers: players who acquire other player's passwords under the pretence of helping complete missions, but then strip said account of oddies and points.
•Teamers: players who cooperate with each other in free-for-all maps.
•Quitters: players who join a game, but quit while it's loading.
•Squatters: players who tab out of the game to join their prefered spot in advance for the next game, then tab back in to their current game.
•Runners: players who run and hide peasants all over the map so the winner has to search and find all of them in order to finish the game and gain the points.
•Multi-accounters: players who use multiple browsers/computers to join adjacent spots in order to gain access to more land & resources, and thus gain an unfair advantage.
•Tower-uppers: people who tower up their base, then quit.

I remember completely demolishing one particular player (who shall remain nameless) 11 times in a row on various maps and he was still calling me a "noob" after every game :lol:

I chose scammers as worst of all...
1: Scammers
Followed very closely by...
2=: Teamers, Multi-accounters
Then a long way down to...
4: Squatters
5: Quitters
And while these guys are mildly annoying, I tend to just laugh at them...
6=: Runners, Tower-uppers, Poor losers

While I feel bad for those who pay for oddies and lose them, should a person who doesn't know better than to give out passwords really be allowed on the internet unsupervised? I don't view scammers very highly, but I've found more bothersome opponents. Sore losers rate extremely annoying in my book, and that category is huge, including several of your other categories,

Where is the option for "overskilled players that can beat you on any map"? :wink:
Scammers are worst, but only if you even fall for it....

Seems like you can't play a game of Chain Reaction these days without somebody teaming. I logged on a few days ago and watched a few games in the theatre... every game had players teaming right from the start. Seriously guys, teaming won't help you become a better player. If you can't play without teaming, you shouldn't play at all, because you'll never be a very good player if you always have to rely on somebody else to help you instead of learning strategies to help you win on your own.

Kinda pisses me off. I'm not even gonna bother to play against people who team. If I'm playing Chain Reaction and someone starts teaming, I'm just gonna quit. I really can't be bothered playing against teamers. So someone else will get the points... I don't care. I don't need the points. Integrity, honour and respect are worth more than points anyway, and I'll leave with mine intact.

Rushing is a valid strategy (certainly not poor sportsmanship, nor unethical like the other options above)... get used to it. If I see an opportunity to end a game quickly by rushing, I'll take it.

Ima have to say teamers. Whenever I tried to play any game in Chain Reaction I'd normally have 3-4 people teaming me. I still won about 1/2 of them, but it was very difficult and I'd of won alot of the games they didnt cheat. I guess I really havent been on too much recently so idk the other problems and how bad they are...
