He's playing Classic in the most basic of settings... Nothing abnormal here.

1. The statement is incorrect.
2. I assume you have reviewed the games before making that statement? Or maybe... no, because if you actually had, either you haven't paid attention or you don't know what to look for.
3. Really, why making a post without putting a tiny bit of effort into it?

(Ok, I'm a dick here, but 'm getting increasingly frustrated with people posting asshat posts in this forum.)

I agree with alster on this one. That does not look normal. Look at the game chat though in his games. He knows the terms lol. But like Classic is mostly luck. The thing that weirds me out is hes only played 1v1's and like most of the games are manual and look to be started by him. I do really see an experienced player. Idk what was going on in http://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=6269994 Chat but i think he might have been refering to dice and thats ok.

For my own edification, I'd like to hear what you think is worthy to look for?

Is it manual? isn't the classing "risk" game manual? (I actually don't remember)
Flat rate is standard...
The only think I can see is adjacent forts. That and after a couple games they started experimenting with the forting/cards setting.

I'm not making a judgement here one way or another, i'm just curious :

1. How you find these people since you didn't play them...
2. and What the big flags are that scream "multi" to you...

The big flags that scream multi is that his very first game is manuel. He has started all of his games. They are all 1v1 games. Those are just a few of the things that show how he is to be suspected of a multi.

Yup. And some lingo use straight from the start. The above and this indicates that the guy has played before.

How I find them, well, just a past time between taking my moves. :D

1v1 games don't do it for me, I mostly played them when I started and I had never played risk before.

Staring all of the games in interesting...never thought about that...

Manual however i'm still not sure of...maybe he's just clicking the wrong box? he switched to automatic after the 1st game. and said

2010-01-12 21:04:39 - halfcanadian: very well done
2010-01-12 21:04:47 - halfcanadian: never played choose your only deploy
2010-01-12 21:34:05 - halfcanadian: gg

So that's not a reason...

Lingo is always a flag but like a good case of crabs can always be picked up from others (or the forums). And we are only fucking talking about GG and GL? WTF? Plz you old farts. I'm 30 and I had this "lingo" before I ever joined CC. You guys must be supr oldz or don't use the intertubes very much...

Now you're just (partly) rambling. There are tons of reasons why this account is not a multiple account. And, there are even more reasons why a multiple account won't get busted. Sure, this and that and so and so. But I'm not reviewing accounts/games trying to come up with excuses or maybes. This relatively new account/game list is simply too neat, too focused and too orderly. As I wrote, got a hunch that it may be a multiple account. We'll see. Maybe it's a bust, maybe it's not. But the report was made on solid grounds.

So you are reviewing random accounts to come up with hunches and then posting C&A threads?

When subject to scrutiny your "solid" evidence degrades into a hunch that a mere 10 game classic map history, with varying settings is "too neat, focused and orderly"?

And you belittle people for making asshat posts in C&A? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Sometimes those "asshat" posts are other people's "Hunches".

Well -

2010-01-15 09:48:04 - halfcanadian was kicked out for violating the rules


There's a difference between posting an asshat post stating that someone may not be a multi because it may be this and that (having no clue really) and posting a suspected multi account based on experience.... Got a decent experience and a decent track record re my C&A reports, so not shy about posting them. :D

Your multihunting skills and his multi status arn't really the issue. (I could see he was a multi most likely, even though I would have a hard time articulating it specifically).

Some people try to articulate their "hunches" as well when they post. It's no excuse for not looking at the evidence and going off half cocked mind you.

Nice catch though. Only 4 more and you UNLOCK MOD STATUS! :lol:
