<DELETE ME>
PLACE THE NAME OF THE ACCUSED IN THE SUBJECT LINE!!!



Is it possible for someone to be playing a game and not be online? A game I was in was going slowly, so I checked and my opponent was not online. He/She/it missed a turn and then suddenly, though not online, was playing again. Could there be a bot involved?




Accused:

xxxxxxx
xxxxxxx
xxxxxxx



The accused are suspected of:

Being Multis
Conducting Secret Diplomacy
Severe PM Abuse
Other: <Explanation>



Game number(s):

[game]xxxxxxx[/game]
[game]xxxxxxx[/game]
[game]xxxxxxx[/game]
[game]xxxxxxx[/game]

The Diagnosic Processor Synchronizer had aligned itself parallel to the Diatomic Synthesizer hence sluffing the sequential minion. Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Your opponent was probably away taking turns in his other accounts.

Hmmm...not only does "xxxxxxx" have 3 accounts with the same name, he somehow named the games after himself as well. Something's fishy here. (Although I don't see any evidence of <Explanation>; he's probably clear of that one.)

As for the question at hand, he probably just selected the option under "Control Panel">>"Board Preferences">>"Hide my online status"

Enustik, I think you need to put in a little more information in your report.

jefjef always jumps the gun, this seems to me like his opponent hides their online status...

In answer to your questions... Yes... and Yes again...

Would it be possible for you to define a he/she/it for me, please?

so do i which is why i said he jumped the gun...he immediately assumed multi instead of the fact that the user is probably hiding their status based on this part of the statement.

HaireWolf always jumps the gun... With the information provided I think its a multi that hides his online status and uses the missed turn troop deferment cheap tactic.

could be just someone that likes playing with himself........ I love how there is nothing in the initial post that the normally helpful readings of C&A can use to idenitify the accused. I think we are looking at a new type of multi, multi hunters be afraid, be very afraid.

If that's against the rules, this forum might clear out pretty quick.

You're joking, right? That's the form template. Hell, a quick look at xxxxxxx's 35 total games show he's never played with the OP. Even if he had, the OP simply doesn't understand/know about hidden online statuses. What exactly are you looking into?

Never mind. Carry on, detective. :lol:

Nope I am not joking. Don't ask me why but I clicked it but I did and low and behold xxXXXxx has been BUSTED with SuperLunchNap and SuperLunchTime.

This just goes to show even a blind squirrel finds a nut sometimes.
