Cause he got screwed when he ascended thinking he will be far above others...then came the unfair update,which I think wasn't announced enough early...I also think Sinister got screwed that time too? not sure..
Anyways..my biggest mistake? Deleting my 1st account.

Biggest mistake?
Easiest question to answer... starting to play this wretched, time consuming game.

My biggest mistake?
When I was ascending, I couldn't get any of my friends to hold my brokers. So I brokered all my UUs to some random inactive player on my farm list. And then all of a sudden he became active again. SO, I lost 130M uus then, well, I got 10trills for them.
My second biggest mistake was today, when I attacked someone on my farmlist with 106M attack soldiers(I trained them so, I keep my lifers low, when buying/selling uus). HE used to have 0 defense, and now he build small defense. So I lost 21M attack soldiers.

My biggest Noob mistake is tied between 2. First was when I was ascending for the 10th time. I set UU broker for 3.3mil UU. But it should've been set for 33mil UU. I didn't realize til after I ascended. And in turn I had lost 30mil UU!
The second was in my 1-1 with ArkAngel. I set war right before massing. For those of you who don't know, Setting war negates nox! Ark kicked my ass, while eating popcorn!

I can't honestly believe that anybody whose looked at their time here critically can honestly think that they've done everything right.

Those who strive never to take the game seriously, and those who do the exact opposite; people for whom everything is personal and overloaded with emotions,
well i honestly don't really have many regrets
in response to this, i started in june, and i went into a war almost directly (even before ascending...stupid kikaz
](./images/smilies/eusa_wall.gif)
)
i left 10 mil covert out trained, and that got massed
i built a 260 bil MS when selling 30 mil UU, but got a new account a few days later for no cost
this new account was 9 ascensions up, and had a 350k UP, so i guess i am very happy of how little work i've had to do to get it : P
so even though i screwed my first account completely, my sins are cleansed : )

I forgot to mention one the biggest mistake I ever done in this game...as I felt annoyed about it when this topic rose up, and I still do.
Being too unsure to accept an account exchange with my dear commander, and in the end, good offer being proposed and her account ending in the hands of a noob. Her former account met *all* my big list of criterias and the only reason that prevented me to switch was because I have had this account since I joined in feb 2005 and I hesitated because of that (stupid reason to "like" your account when the other is meeting all your criterias, isn't it?) Would have prevented me to do all the ascensions from Incarnate to AGoL, without having to work on the ascended or main bank size ratio, to equal them to mine, either.
Now, that's a real big mistake!

I regret selling my old account.
I can't even imagine what it would've looked like by now.
Top 10 MS, 400mil+ army, 36 spy, etc...
Eh, oh well...
