so, let me try to understand this, Blitz is a guy who has a great reputation with CC and has put in "his time" on the site. Some feel the result of the crime committed is lacking, and want a complete point reset? All the while, recognizing the contributions he's had.

In my opinion, why not reset his points to not include all those games. I think this is primarily fueled by the hatred for the guy and it appears they are wanting a complete point reset. Is that fair too? I dont think it is, especially given he has accepted responsibility in his profession of why/how it happened. People think Blitz was running a second account and that appears it was being run by 2 sitters, so should both parties be penalized to a point reset too? How come no-one is running the other parties name into the ground?

First of all I would like to thank Andy for having another look at this case. =D>

One question I do have, however, is whether or not this case is going to be treated like any other abuse report. Usually some person/persons will accuse a player of some infraction and the evidence is looked into by the appropriate mods. If the accused party doesn't like what is being said he/she can defend his/herself with evidence supporting their defense. While I can understand a "peanut gallery" in the discussion or suggestions forum I am not sure if it belongs in here. I just would hate to see this one go awry since the re-opening of it was a good gesture in my opinion.

I also have another question...
To my understanding you are supposed to announce that you are sitting for someone else when you are account sitting. It seems by the chat that on at least one occasion other players had no idea that Jobiwan's account was being sitted until it was too late, otherwise they would have been commenting about Blitz, not Jobiwan. Is this an infraction?

If Blitz knew that J was missing turns and was already in say a Clandemonium game, then I don't see the issue except that you know you have a partner that may screw you over by missing turns. However, if he was not in the game and blitz joined in the account of J, then I'm not comfortable with that. If Blitz invited him to a game, knowing he was away, and then a) let another accept the invite or b) accepted the invite himself, then I see several potential conflicts of interest.



give us some time i have a weekly time line back to the tenth of march so far with speed games to confirm the game creation dates

Regarding a point reset, I'll just quote my opinion on the previous C&A thread.

Rodion wrote:Blitz would get those points back. A point reset would actually punish the community, as they'd have to play against a great player with the cost-benefit of playing against a private 1st class. It would also be good for Blitz's teammates, as they'd play alongside a great player with the cost-benefit of playing alonside a private 1st class.


I'm obviously against that kind of punishment, unless someone comes up with a "tweak" that actually makes it work.

I'm actually starting to think this sordid history with Jobiwan goes back a lot longer than people may believe. Take stock of all their games for starters (553 of them). Initially they were always on opposing teams. Look at Game 5558634, Game 5655106 (Round 6 in particular), Game 5655107, and best of all Game 5655108 (in which Jobiwan used every turn and attack to come off a reef and trim 2 x neut 10 luggers and thus leave himself with nothing when Blitz came through). It's actually so obvious it's laughable. There then followed a further 60-odd games of which Blitz won all but one. In the majority of these games (all public) they were quads set-up by Blitz, and Jobiwan just happened to be the first player on Team 2 in almost all cases. Isn't that a bit odd? Coincidental? In order to be the first player to join Team 2 on that many occasions one can only assume it was by invite. So anyway.....60+ games with just one defeat, so you'd wonder why with such a shitty track record Blitz would want to suddenly bring poor Jobiwan on to his team and thereafter play a staggering c.500 games with him.

Ask yourself - would you bring in as a team mate someone who you had just beaten in 59 of 60 games? Or would you do it on the basis you had control of that account and the player's rank was so low it benefitted your objective to farm more points?

It's speculation maybe, but you only have to look at those games I've listed above (and the pattern of Jobiwan attacking neuts) to wonder if there wasn't something going on and, if not, why on Earth a skilled player would suddenly want to team with someone who obviously hasn't a clue.

A complete reset is ridiculous, some reset or deduction would make more sense. Time on the site should have nothing to do with it. That "great" reputation is subjective; as a mod I've had to have several conversation with him around his behavior. Let's just stick to the facts rather than opinions.

Presuming all the games weren't on some weird ass map, I would like to think that even an unskilled player such as myself could win more then 1 out of 60 games against a single player.

Those 60 games might be worth investigating for dumping.

I think you are giving Jobiwan too much credit. He's not a very good player. Plus, I know a lot of people who struggle with Galapagos.

Kia Ora kids. Don't beat up those that work the system, change the system........ Think about it folks. Some people play for the challenge, some people play for the points, and do all they can to reduce point risk and challenge to a very low odds percentage. To change the system would require too much coding me thinks. The real players that have been around for a while know what is what. Know who farms legally, and who is a standout player. Knows who is prepared to teach new clan members team games no matter the points risk. Basically who is on site for their own glory, or who is out their to have a wank in front of the mirror solo with a made up face like an arse clown. The other kids I don't know, blitz has done a lot for this site. Not saying he is a protected species or that I'm a greenie. Just suggesting that rather than playing the man, look at the rules. blitz, in my eyes your not an arse clown. Just another seppo, that would be a kiwi if you could be that cool.

Not to sure everyone is looking for Blitz points to be reset. (maybe some are who are jealous of the amount he has) The way I see it is that cc ers want to make sure the punishment (if any) is a: warranted b:justified and c:fits the crime.
I dont think there is much doubt about how good Blitz is as the stats show how many games he has won. Its more the case of the cc society seeing that a well known good player is punished the same way as a noob would be if they were caught cheating. Its always easy to thrash a peasant than a king.
I have played against Blitz a number of times, all in quads only once was it without J (never lost to his team btw)I had always found it strange that he played with a cook as usually great teams are full of majors and above, so not overly surprised when this was first brought into the forums.
And like others wait with anticipation to the final outcome which I feel is a long way off.

There was a case when a mod was stripped of colors and banned from the site for a severe infraction. So no, past achievements rarely account in C&A reports. And I doubt there is much hatred left. Only facts now.

One question I have is does anyone know if there is any proof that Jobiwan asked Blitzaholic to join tournament games for him? This would be one way that Blitzaholic could possibly make himself look a little less guilty. Otherwise we can only assume that he was abusing Jobiwan's account.

Well joining tournament games isn't really the problem. I guess playing them is one of them tho. However the Public games still seems to be the biggest offense to me, which is what the warning was for?

If J was winning so many quad games as a Blitz teammate, how come he has less than 700 points. This can only be so if he has played all of his 1v1's like an arse.

So the question is; if his personal play was so poor and his quad play was so good, just how many of his quad turns did HE actually take himself?

--Andy


Boy, I remember those games. We were in a tournament where we had ten 4 player standard games against the same players. Jobiwan had no rhyme or reason to when he/she would take her/his turns. Missed 2 rounds, take a turn, miss 1 round, take the next turn. It was brutal. I would have much rather Jobiwan just deadbeated rather than torturing us like that. It is so hard to strategize and game balance when you have 1 person randomly not taking turns.

On the cheating issue, I don't know who took what turns, I just saw my name in this thread and had to comment about how bad that experience was because the memories came flooding back.

As far as who is the best player in CC, I am 2 for 2 against blitz in non-team games, Game 4723201 Game 4944336 and 1 for 5 against jobiwan, so my vote is jobiwan is the best (when he/she is playing). :D

Yea but I think part of the whole picture is that he joined games for Jobiwan and then deadbeated on some of the games and not on others which could be seen as fixing the games to some extent. I am not disagreeing with you, I just think that he couldn't have done one without the other or at least couldn't have gotten called out on it.

Namor,

At this point in this game it is allowed for one player to order around his teammates in games. What some people are looking into is whether or not the turns/deadbeats and joining of new games took place before or after Jobiwan left the site and whether or not these actions were done to let Blitzahoic get an unfair advantage (cheat).

If you are taking the games after 7th of March, he aint guilty of point dumping. Unless you want to move the goal posts. This is Jobiwans map rank chart between 11th Feb and 7th Mar.
