Conquer Club

[b]Accused: snakeyes


[*]Other: <Explanation> snakeeyes is holding up a game to gain more points and is waiting for me to finish another game so he doesn't lose more points!


[b]Game number(s): 2727165

[b]Comments: This dude, snakeyes, tells me (in quotes) in another game that "2008-06-26 17:12:44 - snakeyes: points are awarded based on our scores.. if i have a higher score and you have a lower score you will get more points. if i were to beat you first my score would be that much higher and yours would be that much lower meaning you would gain more points.."

and is purposely holding up our other game (2727165) to use this method to quote on quote lose less points" (see above evidence)
Now he is refusing to end game 2727165 untill i finsh another game, game * 2727164* to hopefully lose less points and for me to gain less
Please let me know if what he is doing is necessary and if i should just finish the other game because i think snakeeyes is getting to serious with the whole conquer club points termonalogy.

Thanks, Corman

more evidence provided:
2008-06-26 17:41:17 - FabledIntegral: Corman - you don't even have to finish. You have premium and he doesn't. Play as many games as you want. He's using 50% of his games for this.
2008-06-26 17:45:43 - FabledIntegral: Furthermore, I just did the math. His point of delaying the game himself is idiotic - if he takes the win first then you win, his score will end up being 1739.
2008-06-26 17:46:27 - FabledIntegral: However, if you take the win first then he takes the win, his score will end up being 1741.
2008-06-26 17:47:21 - FabledIntegral: The difference for his score is 2 points, I hope the 2 points is worth the days you can hold the game up since you have premium (and he better hopes he doesn't win any games in the meantime, otherwise he'll lose more points due to him not ending these
2008-06-26 17:47:28 - FabledIntegral: sooner)

(see game 2727164)

First off the miniscule difference that a game is worth hardly warrants holding up a game. It rarely makes an impact and even when it does it's usually only a point or two.

Second, even though this is a cheap strategy it isn't against the rules. I doubt that anything is going to come of this as you aren't the first to make note of it. Giving him a poor rating in attitude and fair play is probably your best bet.

You and snakeeyes have two games currently going on. Neither one of you wants to end it.

Game 2727165
Game 2727164

You better settle this between yourselves.

Hardly - it's only occurring because of the first player. He's merely responding to the other players bullshit. I find it hard to believe that you wouldn't give a verdict to this.

If you could show us more games where these players have consistently done this before with other players as well, then we can do something about this. Give each other the appropriate ratings for their unsportsmanlike conduct for these games between themselves.
