Talking about lowest player count total, Ravenblack clearly contributes. Right now I see 43 'active' players listed... But Freesoul (last visited 2 hours ago), Maven (9 hours) and Ellipsis (3 hours) are somehow missing from the list, but available via direct link at profile...
Heck, even 'complete' list of players ('show inactive') misses them. Ravenblack's is buggy...

Hairy Ghost? Seriously? Like for real?
Looks like I might have to break my personal rules on para to BREAK HIM.

Hey everybody. I was considering starting a new thread titled something like - Where's your head at? but decided this thread was close enough.
After reading the great analysis (okay, i skipped things when my brain started hurting) provided by Salvor it got me thinking aobut Warlocks again. I'm interested to see what some of you guys think of your styles right now, how you want to improve, what goals you have, who you want to destroy.
I'll kick the ball off with the state of the Drunken Master.
Table wise, things have been static for a while. Bio perched a little above me, succat and Xade. I still want to claim the Highest ELO of All Time but that doesnt seem to be happening as my play has grown a bit stagnant. Maybe time for a change.
Naturally i play each weave differently but i tend to drift towards S these days with my idea of defense centering around Goblins and Fear. In retrospect i probably got this way by playing too many para games. Xade has been wiping the floor with me lately because the guy goes for DPP every single chance he gets and it clips my wings. So in the future, say goodbye to Mr S/P...S/W...I'm D/S all the way.
Apart from a self imposed style change i think in 2010 i want to claim the Melee title. One year, i hope its a realistic time frame...Rated Melee games are few and far between and take forever.
Looking forward to the days Saypin, Ellipsis, Salvor and Mike EB join the big dogs over 1900 and we get a nice big mix where a good streak (like Xade's recent 100 ELO gain) gives anyone a chance at The Highest ELO of All Time. In fact, i think that should be a title, now that it has changed hands a couple of times. Right now, holds the HELLOOAT. (Quick, someone think of a better title for it).
Anyway, to summarize, 2010 i will claim the HELLOOAT, top the Melee table, develop a world beating style around D/S and beat Xade repeatedly
How about you?

ha, you gotta get through me to score two oh those goals... And all with my favorite D/S ?? Watch out, it's fun, but it won't paint your fence and it gets SMASHED by S/P...

So... to win in 2010 all we have to do is deny Toyo at least one of his goals?

I like S/D!!! Don't think that it is SO easy crushed with S/P, but I don't analysed t deeply(and I played S/D often only in my early years =)), so maybe
My main goal for the nearest future is in improving myself and trying to reach and stabilise in 19th =) And maybe some ladder goals, don't think about goals while I'm playing, actually.
P.S.Interesting question, Why do warlocks call their oppennings as D/P,F/P,F/S,S/P,S/W? But not P/D P/F S/F P/S W/S?? Maybe I am the only persono who says S/D instead of D/S, that`s why I am asking =)

i went through a D/S phase recently. usually following with DS/SD then you can flip it again and missile if they bring out a goblin. it's nice to keep a threat on the board for the first few turns. i think there may have been a couple of my games that i opened DSDS/SDSD. it seems like the most immediately fun opening i've played with.
P.S. letters are put in alphabetical order, unless they are fear gestures, in which case they go at the end (because they are afraid), with P being the most skurd

Maybe I am the only persono who says S/D instead of D/S, that`s why I am asking =) I think we make the hand that threatens a third-turn disruption the primary hand and the other one the second hand. So by that metric there's a subtle difference between D/S and S/D in that S/D implies that the main turn-3 threat is Fear.

It's all alphabetical.
Except for S/P. But that's cause it follows orders and cleans up after you.

Well if anyone wants to make contributions to the "Promoting Ellipsis to Big Dog status" fund...succat was the last big donor.
