How am I being cocky? I just expressed surprise that I was doing better than "I" thought I was. I was not expecting honestly to be on any of these lists, except maybe nominal value.
It was certainly not a slight to anyone else. There are many (including mr. crossdale up there) who are better than me in many aspects.
I have a long way to go before I meet my personal goals of success. I'm just happy that EO's stats show me doing better than "I" thought I was. Nothing more. It was not meant as "I'm doing better than everyone else".
And my response to EO was meant in the same manner. I didn't realize I was doing so well. The last time the lists were posted, I don't think I was on any of them, and I haven't grown much since then.
If any of you wish to take my comments as cockiness, then go for it. I am more than willing to acknowledge there are many players better than me in many aspects of this game. Especially the warring aspect.
I apologize for causing any misunderstandings about my comments. I just don't see anything wrong with being surprised by how well I'm doing, thinking I was doing worse than I am.
