Comments:
If I'm right, this is by far the trickiest multi player I've ever spotted. If you'll notice, there is a distinct pattern to the newbies that play with dave. Before you read; yes, i know these are all common things for newbies to do, but NEVER have i seen the frequency at which this occurs in their games with dave
Anyway-
1. They almost all made an account, logged on for 3 minutes and never came back
2. They almost never attack dave (i've seen maybe 4 instances in which they do)
3. They all joined in groups than span mere minutes of each other
4. The ones that do log on multiple times have log out for their last time at the same time as other accounts
In detail-
1. Almost every new account is made, joins 4 games and logs out within minutes. I would assume a first-time player would take more time in choosing games, checking the site out, ect. Even if they do have a short attention span, I refuse to believe that so many people would all behave like they were disinterested, especially after going through the trouble of making an account.
2. pretty self-explanatory...
3. Yes, craploads of people join CC every day so of course many of their "joined on" times would seem like they coincide. Yes, people tend to avoid games with newbies so you often see game of almost all "?"s. Yes, a few of them come from different countries/IPs. My response- Look at the frequency at which this happens in Dave's games! wtf, amirite!? Oh, and he used free online proxies, duh. With add-ons for a browser it's easier than ever to look like an IP originates from another country.
4. Just one example- Game 6756908. Insanebt and irishdude11. Last time they ever played was within minutes of each other.

If anything else, this guy has won only 18% of his games. I became suspicious when i noticed he went from private to Major in a manner of weeks without winning a tourney. This guy's strategy is simply not that good- his rationale is poorly founded and his actions are often obviously going to be detrimental to his success.

That's what i mean, if you look at his game's he's just started doing this recently. He goes from losing almost every game and playing with the rare newbie (who eventually becomes a ranked player) to having some random nobody that either attacks others or lags out not only in every game, but games FULL of them....

he's realized he can get the most points only from the profiles he beats once before his point return diminishes.

like i said, he was a private only a few weeks ago. He's clever, but still pathetic

you will find a good portion of new players dont stick around.
And unless he is inviting these players into games or luring them in he isnt really farming.

I'm completely aware that a high percentage of ?s don't come back.

What's not normal is for a profile to be crated, for them to join 4 games and then log out all in a matter of minutes- especially for it to happen so many times in a row, not to even mention sequentially.
