The accused are suspected of: Other: Violating the Unwritten Rules of Conquer Club. http://www.conquerclub.com/public.php?mode=rules Rocko734 joined the doubles game I created and immediately started to throw the game. He's deliberately attacking me
Check out the game chat to see what I mean (he's actually doing the things he's saying):
Game Chat: 2016-03-06 02:07:57 - WildJester [team]: heyy 2016-03-06 02:08:03 - WildJester [team]: reinforced North Korea with 3 2016-03-06 02:08:21 - WildJester [team]: I'll push from the east -- you do the same from the west 2016-03-06 02:08:47 - WildJester [team]: Take primorsky 2016-03-06 02:09:02 - WildJester [team]: Fort me Taiwan plz 2016-03-06 02:09:26 - WildJester: gl all 2016-03-06 18:52:18 - Rocko734 [team]: I think a better plan would be for me to attack you everywhere I can 2016-03-06 18:52:47 - Rocko734 [team]: ugh, horrible dice, could only get 2... 2016-03-06 22:18:57 - WildJester [team]: Really? 2016-03-06 22:22:56 - WildJester [team]: Why didn't you use your reinforcement last turn? 2016-03-06 22:23:24 - WildJester [team]: Forted you 2 troops to Spain from Portugal. 2016-03-06 22:23:54 - WildJester [team]: Please fort me 2 troops from Taiwan to Kyushu. 2016-03-07 20:49:39 - Rocko734 [team]: if by "fort me 2 troops", you mean "attack", then no problem. There you go.
Comments: Perhaps his account has been compromised? Can you please cancel this game? It's not fair for this game to go on record since clearly he's not playing to win.
Thanks!

He is doing the same thing to me as to WildJester. And I have him as a partner in another game. Both should be canceled. If not, I would like to withdraw. Better to have a plain-old loss than one in which the partner is inexplicably belligerent.

Just to add some other games which could be examples of this Game 16400903, Game 16390678, Game 16400401, Game 16384707 and Game 16400876 even admits deadbeating in chat. For whatever reason this activity seems to start on March 7 otherwise the play until then is rather normal. However this player has a bunch of games that are in the initial round or about to start so this problem could escalate rather quickly.

Imagine my surprise to see this guy's name here. See what he's doing in Game 16406313 right now. It's not as bad as your issue but it confirms the low level of sportsmanship we are dealing with.

Examples of other games where he is doing this. He has many where he hasn't taken a turn yet. Either his account is hacked, or he's had some sort of epiphany. I'm going to bet on hacked.
Also doing this in a doubles game we had/have won.

He is now doing this indeed in both games I am playing with him. I hope the CC authorities will cancel both of the games. I was considering rejoining. Not any more if this is what I can expect.

why does everyone always say "hacked"? what "hacker" is sitting at home thinking, "ok, took care of nasa, beat the Pentagon challenge, changed all my friends grades... OH! Look!! an online gaming site that looks like risk!! let me hack someone's account, instead of just joining for free and ruin someone's score!!! THIS IS A REAL CHALLENGE, SCREW HACKING FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS!!" sorry, just hard to believe... i have seen zero instances proven in which an account on CC was "hacked". please stop saying this, you are smarter than that.
however, something is up. the guy has a 5.0 rating and just seems to have gone off the deep end. either he has a bad sitter or he had a severe mental snap and is now someone else... good luck with this one!!!-Jésus noir

He should also get a warning under the Major Infraction Scale.

Oh man, this sucks. Not fair to opponents either, as I don't enjoy playing against someone who isn't trying to win. I think a fair solution might be to boot him from those games immediately, as that would turn all of his regions over to his partner and they would even have an advantage in the short term with the region bonus they would get as a result. Still kinda sucks for everyone but at least we would have a game.
Thanks for the heads up @jkoutback13.

@owenshooter,
there isn't some hacker (probably sitting at home) trying to hack ConquerClub's servers. Just someone with nothing better to do than get into someone's account and wreak mayhem by joining team games and trying to cause mayhem. I'd bet it's a disgruntled former CC member with an axe to grind. Wants to come in and try to get his/her 'revenge by screwing up as many games as possible. That is sort of targeting CC.
Hacked has just become the general catch-all term for a security violation (of any kind).
he joined 4 of my doubles games and attacked me from the get go. what can i do?

His account is suspended indefinitely pending investigation. He doesn't look like he was hacked so that possibility is out of the table. As for the affected games, feel free to put him on your foe list and rate him accordingly.
