I've noticed recently that when im waiting to play foot Russian roulette, I get mugged for $0, is this a tactic that works for people? Mugging RR games, cause they know that when waiting for a game all the money isn't in my wallet, right? Cause it happens almost every time I play lmao. Just curious:-)

Well, they're hoping to get lucky now. Before, you could see the progress of the game and then mug.

You can't anymore, so now you wait what you think it took to finish a game and if the starter isn't in hosp, you assume they won and mug. Yes, it does work, sometimes.

That makes sense, however, I've been mugged in games with no opponent yet, when that happens I basically have hospital protection if I win the game & can't be mugged anyway, its great lol

That can work though, ie if you notice someone buying 1000's of points in continuous batches they likely have a lot of money on hand.

That is very true. He said it had worked before.
And I was glad that I was being constant in never withdrawing more than 2mill when browsing the item market..

It confused me for a second though, and was mildly annoyed he robbed me from buying a few dozens of cheap wolverine plushies lol

If you had just lost a high value game of RR, some muggers will try and mug you in that space of getting out of hosp and placing a larger bet on your next match..

Ie lose 25mil, try and catch you with 50mil on you before starting new game..

It's a very poor strategy indeed as is most mugging involving around RR..
It's pure luck if they catch you and generally wastes their e but if you are playing for big bucks at least you get a free hosp (hopefully with a ghost trade in place)
