I dont have a preference for strong or weak players, I will play anyone, it just seems that there are more weaker players than there are stronger plays (duh) on gg. Back in the days of gamesgrid, I went on a Raccoon run (playing only the raccoon in short matches), and managed to drop my rating on there to around 1750 or something because of it. Stepan Nuniyants used to do similar things too, and his gamesgrid rating was equally low because of it.
I dont think that there is anything wrong with playing to improve ones ER. So I could do it offline vs a bot, or online vs people. I prefer online & people.
For this (short) match I managed to score a 5.1 ER, which obviously isnt good, this came about from 1 or 2 >0.01 errors, one early cube (0.033 ND), and my missed recube from the previous position. A grand total of 4 mistakes, which I hope to eradicate. The 2 small errors I dont care about, the early cube I do, and the previous reship I do. So my goal is to remove these errors from my game, and not care whether I win or lose in the process. Logging a 5.1 in my ER progression will not be a helpful indicator for me, as I was clearly correct in not reshipping the previous position (based on opponent strength), and on when he actually took my eventual reship. The point I am making I suppose is that watching ones ER does not always indicate how well you are playing. However, right now, thats all I am doing.
