Hmmm.... You got your ass served on a plate?
I really don't like the way you played your 2 first years, especially the anti-Russian opening when it's pretty clear that you didn't have an alliance locked in with Austria. And Russia obviously had some good comm with Austria...

And then it looks like a lot of players missed turns here and there...

Its gunboat. I really don't see what italy was thinking or how I could have possibly expected to save myself. Junk game.

I've reported this game to the mods. That's all I'll say on the matter.

Did not see it was gunboat. Apologies.
This game is obviously bullshit

OK. No more discussing this game until the mods investigate and make their determination.

Agreed.

Thank you.

This thread should be held up as a model. :-)

Per my e-mail, Italy, Austria, and Russia have all been banned.

I actually didn't notice Italy, but it's obvious that he was a multi, now that I look at it. Thanks to fortknox.

Nice to know that I wasn't a multi in that game.

I think you are a multi in every game, Czech. :)
Is that considered an accusation?

By the way, why were you even involved in this, smiley?

I looked at the game, saw it was suspicious, and reported it to the mods. :-)

There are certain players who stalk me. ☺is one of them.

Not true! I just like looking at gunboats, and you're in most of the gunboats. :-)

I thought you were "studying".

He is "studying." YOU, Czech.
I think smiley has a man crush on you. :)
It's understandable. You do represent a whole group of people here.

What does "You do represent a whole group of people here" mean?

The Czech. Your name can be taken to represent all of Czech people.
It was intended to be humorous, not offensive.
If it offended you, I apologize.

No offense, I just wasn't sure what you meant. (Ego talking) I didn't know if I had a cult following. :P

Oh, but you do.
Obi is one. Smiley's another. I might join here pretty soon.

(blushing)

I don't know where zultar is getting his facts... I think if you look at the statistics, Czech has joined more of my games than I've joined of his.

Oh, and it appears Germany got the bancannon for this game too. Didn't notice that either. This guy was prolific.

Wouldn't they both be equal?

Studying?

I meant joined games that I'd started, zultar, vs my joining games that he's started.

And I'm taking breaks, Czech...

How do you determine who started a game?

Well any game I start has is in binary smiley faces...

You're all part of my cult following.

And... maybe I'm being dumb, but I really don't see where the multiaccounting is particularly obvious in this one. You could sub ☺ and I as Italy and Austria (or vice versa if you have to :P) and "they're cheaters!" gets replaced with "well, they've done gunboat before, they just signaled the right moves at the right times" or what have you.

Granted, I didn't check past history... maybe that's where it was obvious? Except that no one said anything about cheating until it was a gunboat, so I figured it was the gunboat aspect that made it so clearly cheating.

@smiley,
Oh you meant going through the games one by one to see which one you started. I don't care that much smiley. It was a joke to the Czech.

@ Smiley
Per my e-mail, Italy, Austria, and Russia have all been banned.

Well, i reported the same three players last saturday so why are they listening to you and not me :(. gameID=65124

But how does it workes. Can you get points back? Will the influence of losing be canceled from the Ghost rating calculation next month?

Actually it wasn't just Italy, Austria, and Russia, it was also Germany and userID=34756 that got banned too. I think there were two different sets of multi's in this game, lol
@Eden, Italy's moves do not make sense for a player that wants to get a draw or even a win, he clearly was more concerned with causing France enough trouble that Austria could win during the later stage of the game.
