Accused:

thedice

The accused are suspected of:

Other: Ratings abuse


Game number(s):

Game 7372471 : vs me danes Gave me all 1's and tagged me as clueless after I beat him quickly and we had a friendly talk during the game

Game 7340417 : vs mangamewin Gave him all 1's and tagged him as slow, clueless after mangamewin won

Game 7378328, and others :vs fydorm lost 4/5 1v1 and gave him 1 stars, tagged him as clueless

Game 7311172, vs JoshyBoy lost 1v1 and gives him all 1 star, tags him as bully

Game 7160116, and others, vs Deathwink, gives him all 1 star after losing 4/4, tags him as slow, poor strategy.


I could go on, but i think 5 is the general standard.


Comments: When he beats someone, he generally leaves them all 5's, when they beat him, he leaves them low ratings, often all 1's, for no reason other than that they beat him. He likes to tag people who beat him as clueless.
I don't mind getting low ratings when I deserve them, which does happen, but someone who rates people as all 1's just because they beat him does not deserve the privilege of rating people.

Also note the number of people who leave responses to his ratings, indicating that they deserved something different.

Great, another dice thread... :lol:

(sorry, just had to throw that in)

Looking at his ratings, and his rating, this is no surprise. Here is a response to one of his many low ratings:

Response: there is a reason for his 3.8 rating


People! Don't play assholes who's ratings are below 4.3 for the love of god. Infact, Foe everyone with low ratings. You (almost) deserve what you get when you play people like this, what did you expect?

P.S.

It's kinda funny that you put a tattle tale esq report up like this while having a "suck it up cupcake" note on your wall about ratings you give:

danes wrote: If you received a poor rating from me, either you played stupid, e.g. suicide and coming no where near killing your target in assassin, or you employed cheep tactics like truce breaking or giving up others position in FOG games. No i will not change the rating I gave you, unless I have a good reason to. sorry.

Thank you for your valuable contribution to this topic. You seem however to be missing the point....

I believe the rating system is in place to evaluate your opponent, not your satisfaction with your result against that opponent.

I don't really take the time to go find everyone with low ratings and foe them, If there was an auto-foe option for people below 4.0 or something, yes i would use it, but that isn't the issue here.

If you look through the ratings i leave I seldom leave 1's usually only for deadbeats. I put the note up because certain people would message me after receiving poor ratings asking why. Saves me the time to write a responce.

Above quote is from the accusers wall.

The accusation is probably sound thedice has managed to play and rate his way onto quite a few foe lists, his rating does say a lot. Dane, foe, move on, and drop the holier than thou attitude. Your quote on your wall seems to show a strong believe/faith in your own right to rate how you see fit, yet you wish to deny someone the same right, because they don't rate like you.

I think a lot of people will get side tracked by the arrogance of your wall post, and not take this complaint as seriously as they could, maybe also because you come across like a pompous and anally retentive git(not sure whether thats your plan, but its working). You don't have the time to reply to people when you rate them, but when someone rates you... Well you have all the time in the world to start a cheating and abuse thread, and watch it. You can see how some would take that as been just a little two faced.

Hope you have the time to answer this, and when you have the time foe thedice, most people have :) Ah and please don't bother replying on my wall I won't "have the time" to answer you there.

Normally I don't do anything if someone gives me a low rating, but i saw a pattern, which is why i posted it as possible ratings abuse. Just thought that it should be noted.

I don't see how anything i have on my wall has any relevance to this.

I believe that my concern is valid, and i do not see the relevance of your opinion that i am a "pompous and anally retentive git" as it is related to this concern. This is often referred to as an ad hominem attack. Perhaps I am, perhaps i am not. But it does not matter; this is completely irrelevant.

thedice is a piece of work - give him as much abuse back as he gives you in the chat and he will foe you - simples!!

By the way CC, thedice feels that the rolls and the drop are unfair unless he gets exactly what he wants - if you could Jim'll Fix it for him to always start with Australia in the classic game and let him roll a 6 on every dice he will be a happy bunny!!

I like games 7414902 and 7414900 where the dice is playing a 2 player seige game and a 3 player Classic game.

He and the same player from the seige are also in the classic game and thedice asks in the seige game for the help of the other player in the Classic game!

great all round guy...wish he was my mate!

i wish you would make a new post about this in the C&A. this post is about rating abuse, not cheating through alliances out of gamechat (of the relevant game)

I was just highlighting the kind of person thedice is...though I am sure anyone who has played him knows that already.
