Agree with both posts, but replace the juvenile homo with something more representative of Geofram's ass-holish nature.

Multiying is strictly against the rules, bolshoi.

oh yeah, i understand multi accounting is normally bad, but what if you play the other accounts to attack your main account in the game sometimes. not to support your main account. and you just use the multi to cd at the most opportune time? i think that's probably ok.

obvious troll is obvious.

Bolshoi, how many accounts do you have?

hard to say. i have some buddies in other cities that let me ssh into their machines, then i run scripts on the machines that auto-create accounts every couple months and login. then i send out a list of my games i will play in, and they all sign up if there are spots remaining. then in-game, they play an ai script of when to move/etc, also send me a response of which countries they are assigned. then i just let the ai play until it seems like the best time for them to cd, then i send the cd order when i need it. i'm not sure how many accounts i have. i just send out the requests and see how many responses i get. also some buddies just opt-out of it and take their computers off the grid, essentially removing those accounts.

depending who is online maybe 2 or 3 at any given time. in total, who knows, maybe about 10.

Have none of them been banned?

lol. Bolshoi is just bolshoi-ing, guys. If he had multis, they'd ALL be jabbering at us all the time. Just my opinion, of course.

no, the mods are stupid. since i run them from remote computers in other cities, they have no hope of tracing the accounts back to me. it's a perfect scheme.

the tricky part is writing the script to get them to sign up to random games you're not in, and, of course, writing the ai code to play the moves. but there is open source diplomacy ai code. so once you have those two things, it's smooth sailing. to be honest even this is one of my multi's. i'm really barn3tt. isn't it obvious from my rankings? that is my real account, this is my account where i vent all my frustrations, so that if it's banned i'm fine with it. and of course, all those other accounts to throw games to me. i just sometimes use them to support bolshoi if i feel like upping his respect on here.

@ the moderators

I hope claiming te be an multi is also enough reason te get banned?

it could be, it's what this dispute with geofram is about.

It you ban Bolshoi that would 'ballet rediculous'

"Multiying is ****strictly**** against the rules" (emphasis added)

"replace the juvenile homo with something more representative of Geofram's //ass-holiness// nature" fixed

"obvious troll is obvious." likely.

"I hope claiming te be an multi is also enough reason te get banned?" seconded

If this dispute is real, at least when Draug drags his moderator disputes into the forums, it's hilarious and not asinine. .... I miss Draugnar.

This doesn't seem like the best topic of discussion to be trolling about. I also don't think I've ever read anything you've written and considered it worth the time.

Bolshoi, I'm not going to be as nice as Geo. I know he told you to stop claiming you are multi'ing.
If you look at the rules, you'll find this:

"Falsely accusing someone of being a multi-accounter/meta-gaming to rally others against them in a game, or claiming that your orders didn't come out the way you entered them to cover up your motives, means mods/admins spend time looking for cheaters/bugs which were made up.

All accusations against other players must be made directly to the mod/admin team directly as specified below, in private, for this reason, and software bug claims must be genuine, even if only told to another player. "

This includes claiming you are your own multi.

Since this post was made AFTER the email, I'm going to assume it was in response to the email, which told you to stop. This thread is being closed, and you will be silenced. I hope your time in the corner will give you time to reflect on how your trolling has gotten you into this mess and hopefully you'll decide against it when you get your voice back.
