Comments:
After I publicly stated in forum that I am attempting to become Conqeuror, xroads started a two-way game throwing just to prevent me from doing that. In Game 21715133, where I am his opponent he intentionally suicided on me without this giving him any chance to win by himself and in Game 21881617, where narutoserigala was his opponent he intentionally played illogical moves to throw the game to narutoserigala.
This report is just from the most recent games of xroads played within the last month, but xroads has 1-17 head-to-head score vs narutoserigala played on maps that xroads knows very well, which raises suspicions if this practice of throwing games had also occurred further in past.
1. Suiciding vs me in Colloseum Game 21715133
In round 1, I took 4 troops of Ukey in Elephant, but my logic was that since I know the game will last at least until round 3 then taking a plus 1 bonus and receiving it twice or more will be paid off. In case of some good dice like 4v1 or 4v2 dice, I could even more profit than lose from from attack by bonuses in later rounds. Rhinoceros, Elephant and Lion were 4/4/5 so I logically chose the weakest one to attack. I did it on the way that my attack is at the end of the turn so that I can start new turn immediately and get the bonus.
Then, round 2 I quickly play, get plus 1 bonus and card, and I survive with 7 troops on Elephant while Lion and Rhinoceros were 4/5. Then, xroads deployed on his 5 or less stack (he carded in round 1 so if he didnt lose a roll in round 1 he would have 5 troops), carded versus a single which means he could maximally have 7 troops after carding (that is, if he rolled 1-0 in both rounds 1 and 2) and then suicided versus my stack of 7 on Elephant getting really good dice and 4 survivors.
Important to tell, I had 3 troops at Audience which he could not reach, therefore he was not even in theoretical position to attempt to kill me, plus there were many other players on the map with also 2 cards as me but weaker than me and easier to kill.
Two things to highlight:
A) Lion and Rhinoceros were 4/5, why would anyone attack Elephant with 7 unless if they want to throw the game? If someone really wants that plus 1 bonus, he would take it vs the weakest animal, not vs the strongest one.
B) If xroads really wanted to take that Elephant instead of suiciding vs me, then he would attack Elephant directly to have more survivors, not after he carded vs a single elsewhere. But, xroads wanted to suicide himself on me so that some other player can kill him easily and get his 2 cards instead of 1 card, just with intention to throw the game out from me. He surely didnt expect that his 7v7 (or lower) attack will produce such great dice so that 7v7 was literally well-planned suicide with carding just before that so that someone can get one more card from him. I have already ended my turn in round 2, so that someone who kills him could surely not be me.
After this experience I stopped to join Colosseum games after playing them for many years with 79 games played on the map because I knew that xroads will follow me across each Colosseum game that I join and again suicide on me. I am going to become Conqueror within this year and the site could have a Conqueror joining Battle Royale games for the first time ever, which would surely attract more players to join them. However, thanks to xroads' obsession to screw me in every possible legal or illegal way, this will unfortunately not happen.
2. Throwing game to narutoserigala in Game 21881617
I dont know if this was first time that xroads threw a game to narutoserigala, given that he is losing head-to-head score vs narutoserigala with 1-17 score, where the 1 win is from clan wars in 2017 on home map of xroads team where xroads joined Jamaica map where strategy is usually led by Mageplunka69. Besides that one win under guidance of Mageplunka69, all other 17 xroads games vs narutoserigala every played were losses. These losses were mostly played on das schloss map but xroads also knows that map well, having played it 711 times by himself. xroads even played das schloss map much more times than narutoserigala himself, who played it 468 times.
However, the most recent Antarctica game is a very obvious example of intentional game throwing to narutoserigala, just to make a harder task for me to become Conqueror, like suiciding in the Colosseum game was not enough.
In round 6 of the Antarctica game, xroads team was deploying 22 per turn while narutoserigala team was deploying 20 per turn, plus xroads team plays first so they always have 1 card more than opponents due to the first turn advantage.
Situation in round 6 was that green (narutoserigala) was at AL7 SL3, SL1 was yellow (xroads) and SL2 WT5 were neutrals. on the other border, xroads had 6 WL regions including WL7 WL6 while green had WL8 likely with 1 troop there because I dont see from the log that neither green nor red deployed something there.
Then, in round 6 xroads took WT5 meeting green, and good player with such reputation as xroads would either advance all if he is stronger or advance 1 for defense if he is weaker, but xroads takes another neutral SL2 (?????) just to give silver plate to green to break both SL2 and WT5 the turn later which green indeed did. To be it worse and more obvious game throwing, xroads had 6 WL regions including WL7 WL6 but he didnt even try to take WL8 with 25 drop (?????) and WL8 seems to be 1 neutral or very weak, just so that WL8 can take the silver plate and break him back at WL6 WL7 the very next turn. For clarity, green took WL8 in round 3, which means that base J had 7 troops at round 6. It is not a big deal to release 7 troops to go out, compared with gifting WL7 WL6 to green (xroads losing bonus there plus green gained new bonus), and losing much more other chained bonuses in subsequent turns. It is also not that xroads didnt have enough troops to attack WL8, he had just cashed and deployed 25 troops in total that turn so he could very easily take WL8 if he wanted to win, but instead he wanted to throw the game to narutoserigala just to screw my publicly stated intention to run for Conqueror.
