i think this is a pretty obvious case where he seeks out new recruits and takes their points

"Seeks out"? He's the creator of the game... and they aren't very weird settings.

This first game you listed doesn't have anyone in it other than StackedAmazon himself (the creator of the game). How is that evidence of farming NRs? As for the others, do you have evidence of his sending them messages to try to lure them to his games? If not, I'm having difficulty understanding how he can be obvious that he is seeking them out when he has nothing to do with who joins (though worse rulings have been made in this regard in the past!).

if you look at games involving him, the vast majority include NRs

if you look at my games, and the ranks they had at the time, you might see 20 games EVER (excluding back when i was first starting, the first 30, or so)...

I just checked out his active games: http://www.conquerclub.com/player.php?s ... so=&page=1

Yeah, there's a fair amount of ?s, but he's varying maps and settings. What else is he supposed to do? I don't think he's inviting the players to play with him. This doesn't look like farming to me.

[Full disclosure: I've played some games with him.]

He is the creator of the game its simple why open a case with no evidence. Playing ? is not something liked by many.

However I would like a bunch to join my games and quit and give me points

find something else to do with your time other than reporting people for b.s... he's the creator of the games, and to my knowledge doesn't invite anyone... find a hobby...

As previously stated by someone, you cannot control who joins your games if you do not invite them. If he invites them, there will be an abuse of the invite system. If he does not invite them, there is nothing wrong because they are public games.

This case has been examined, all games looked at.

StackedAmazon is cleared of charges.

sniffie

Thanks guys for seeing through this. I always liked the Montreal map, but apparently the rest of CC doesn't. The games would take days to fill and then be full of new recruits. I guess it would be a way to be points but I seriously couldn't be bothered with that.

No one else in CC seems to like Iberia either, so I guess it is back to the drawing board.

i like both.

so long as its not freestyle send me invites to both.

Wow. Looking at this I must be guilty of farming then since I only play one map with the same settings over and over that is the most similar to the real game of RISK. Not to mention I have been playing the same game for five years. I prefer the five person game but too many freemiums join it so over the years I have had to switch to 6 and 7 with the occasional 5.

Then again I still think we need to have the ability to exclude ??? (new) people when creating the games.
