    11. You think Napoleon Bonaparte stole your idea where you form up pikemen in a box with archers inside, which would later become known as the noob box.

    12. You think elephants are uber PWNZERS who can defeat pikemen.

    13. You are so stupid that you think modding spartans, catas, urbans and praetorians in other armies balances out the game.

    14. You think just because you beat the campaign you have acquired skillz to best any RTW player in MP.

    15. You think Companions beat Cataphracts.

    This is excellent, i'm gonna rep you and anyone else that comes up with ideas.

    16. You think that the tortoise is the best way to confront an army with missile advantage.

    17. You are SURE that you opposition is modding.

    18. You take experience upgrades over weapon/armour.

    19. You ask what an upgrade is.

    20. You do not only go into a noob box, like in 11., you than offer to leave it because you think it is unfair.

    21. You spam urbans and praetorians, you naturally lose because of lack of skill then you blame your loss solely on 1 of your opponents units.

    22. Like in 17, you are sure your opponent modded, then in your next game you will automatically copy thier army and tactics lol.

    23. You think just because you joined a noob clan, you automatically become a good player.

    Actually its quite a normal thing to do. Every game works with noobs and leet. for shooters it's having a good KD ratio that makes ya pro, for RPG's its a high level, for strategy games its understanding all or most of the details of the game, playing very well, even if you lose, not doing anything on the list above, and possibly train people to get em out of noobness

    Nah it can still continue.

    39. You think braking rules will automatically result in a win, little do you know you lack the skill to use any advantage such as getting extra cav or inf. etc.

    40. You ban people who can always beat you.

    41. You love to camp, thinking it is the best tactic in the world.

    42. You think rushing involves no skill, and when a rusher beats you, he automatically cheats.

    43. You spam the lobby to try and gain some respect or credibility, but you fail miserably.

    44. You use names such as "Undefeatable", "IOWNEVERYONE", "youallsuck", "i am the best", which you cannot live up to since you always lose.

    45.) You insult generals that have come before you such as Julius Caesar, Hannibal, Alexander, etc. by using their names in battles...

    Surprised these hav'nt come before (they are all genuine cases)

    46) You sit on top of a hill and hurl insults at your opponant for not charging up the hill
    47) you form a clan and do the above with your new mates, this time adding a forest on the hill so your opponant can't evan see you
    48) you form a clan and set up a game with the rules No archers, No Artillery and 1,000,000 denari, you then grab Greece & Carthage and form noob boxes

    52. You think Egypt is a respectable choice in a game on Rome, and wonder why people call you an egyptwhore.
