I appreciate that you are upset about being treated badly due to your gag choices.. but I also think it's getting old that people without sound sometimes are playing the martyrs.. Like I said, It's only a game. Just b/c someone doesn't want to run with you b/c you don't have sound does not make that person bad and it doesn't show that they have bad character. It just means maybe they are trying to get their stock options or whatever as quickly as possible. I run with soundless all the time in front threes and sixes which I don't have a problem with. And I've seen soundless get shunned away from the carts which does stink b/c it's only a game. I've actually waited to go with the soundless person in hopes of minimizing some of the shuffle they experience. So you just have to keep trying. Your choice of gags may or may not have been intentional but it is one of those choices that will inevitably make the game more challenging for you. So as you've said you won't give up. So don't. And if someone doesn't want to run with you just wait for the next one.

I don't think he was being a "martyr" in anyway, I think he is trying to share his frustration of certain people on the game who refuse to go with anyone out of their comfort zone. It is no harder to do a mid 6 with a soundless then it is to go with all sound. He stated that he stops doing the cog ball game to ensure that other players get the sound they need, but tt doesnt always just hand sound out for those who need it in that paticular game, have you never been in the cgc and run out of fog when your with all toons who have sound? It's happend to me and I am pretty sure it has happend to you. So by going with a soundless doesn't cause anymore risk for you losing your sound then going with all toons who have sound.

I have friends whom are soundless and I have never once thought of not going with them. It is all in how the person plays. I have run mid sixes with the ops toon before and he is an awesome player and we have glided thru the cgc with no problems. Keep up the good work, and if someone chooses not to run with you, then its their loss.
