get0ver_urself & rebellouis? [cleared of multi]

Game #44743

Its hard to tell after the fact, cause it doesn't show on the board - but - in his very first turn, get0ver_urself attacked armies all around rebellouis with not enough attack armies, so that they were all down to only 1 army on each country around rebellouis.

I thought it was strange for someone who isn't a new player - so I asked in the game notes - and they got all defensive and angry, then said they were going to ally.

So I checked, and they've played together many times before. They seem to be working together - I don't know any other reason someone would do that.

I just won't play with them again - and I wanted to post for others to be aware also - although I don't have proof.
The way they do it is very good - you can't tell because they still attack each other, its just that one of them makes it easy for the other by reducing their armies - attacking 3 with 3 and ending up with only 1 army all around their partner.

How pathetic is it to cheat instead of practicing and developing your game?
Very sad.

i don't think they are multis:
just look at the games 44063, 42938, 36659.

no multis would fight and behave like that.

i also think your pieces of circumstancial evidences aren't strong enough even to mark their names with this accusation.

I never said they were multis - I believe that they are partners and throw games for each other. And last I checked this wasn't a court of law - circumstantial evidence is all I have as a player on this site - I don't have any direct or factual evidence to prove that these two are partners, and its unlikely I will ever get it.

I simply had a horrible, unpleasant experience playing with these two after I asked if they were playing together - and it made me angry because of the stuff they posted on the notes of the game. They absolutely freaked out like children - which made me even more suspicious.
Plus - who attacks 3 armies with 3 armies, until all around one player are down to only 1? I'm not a good player, but even I wouldn't do that.

Here's the thing - I'm not very good at this game - just look at my record. I only play with people who have better records than me, because I want to be a better player. Playing with cheaters makes me sick.

All I am doing is reporting an unpleasant experience. Anyone who reads my post can take it or leave it, forming their own opinions as they see fit.

I'd say you made a good call Iggy. They play a lot with Michelle and Dana, too.

They are not multis,

I'd suggest you file a grievance feedback against them if you wish, then others can make up their minds before joining a game with them.
