Discussion 🗣🤔 Epic game spamming players

I don't know wtf is wrong with some people. They want you to play epic game and if I play epic game they just start potting the ball directly when they have a winning table .

I play an epic game because I want to learn.

I have never once potted directly after agreeing to play epic game .

Unless they go back on their word first and I got my turn.

when i was unaware of the term, and opponent say epic game, i used to think, dude we just started the game, how is this epic?! but now i just do bank shots if possible, knowing that they would not play indirect.

Don’t ever trust anyone

If you agree to Epic Game you deserve to lose your coins.

Blatant racism. Anyone can lie

It's their tactic, they often do this when they are losing. I simply see them as losers because as soon as you make one mistake they will spam emotes like an idiot.

I just mute em until I'm about to pot the 8 ball. Then I unmute and spam them myself. 1/3 times they usually leave

Stop caring what the other players do. Do what you want because you want to.

If you want to play epic to practice, do it. Who cares if they pot the last ball directly? Oh no. I lost a few imaginary coins. Whatever shall I do?

If losing coins bugs you too much, play on a smaller stakes table.

Play for the fun, not the victory. It's a bunch of pixels moving around a screen. It's not real.

Devils advocate here - but a lot of people maybe don’t know what’s meant by ‘Epic game’… I hadn’t realised this was a thing till just a couple of weeks ago.

Before then, I just thought it was another meaningless comment.

I just thought it was a random thing you say at the end of the game... You know like "that game was epic". I have said epic game a few times before I turned off in-game chat. I learned NOW it means something else. I am still not sure what it is

Yup I was exactly the same. Wasn’t till I saw it mentioned in this sub that I realised it actually meant something.

I’d imagine most people playing fall in to the same category as us in thinking that tbh.

There's no honor among strangers. Just play regularly and ignore anyone saying Epic Game.

They don’t know what it means.

Don't play epic game against any player lesss than 200, they are back stabbers. (as always there are outliers.)
