Comments:
I noticed some suspicious play in game# 4829403, as WOW_Zeus appeared to be helping LordThor win the game. Because of this, I looked into WOW_Zeus's game record, and noticed that 10 out of 13 games were against LordThor, 9 of them being only 2 person games, and 9 victories for LordThor. Additionally, WOW_Zeus's gameplay was significantly different in the 3 person game with me (4829403) than in all of his games against LordThor. WOW_Zeus was reckless against me, but EXTREMELY passive in the 1 vs 1 games with only LordThor, where he rarely even attacked.
Additionally, I noticed that LordThor is quite talkative in all of his games EXCEPT against WOW_Zeus, likely because there is no point in talking to himself. This is especially ironic because when I accused them of being a multi in game, WOW_Zeus responded "hes trying to teach me the ropes, hence me playing him so often." Showing someone the ropes means actually helping, not being silent.
The 1 vs 1 games between LordThor and WOW_Zeus also are finished at an extremely rapid pace, usually finished in under 45 minutes; no time, thought, or strategy is needed when the outcome is known in advance.
There are also obvious similarities in the accounts--both named for mythology gods, both accounts are from Britain.
One last note: the game originated through the "Callouts" Live Chat board. LordThor was on and asked if I wanted to play rt. I said yes, but only if we could play with at least one more player (I hate 2 player games). Within a minute, WOW_Zeus had logged onto Callouts and immediately said he'd play. Usually it takes at least 10 or 15 minutes to get a third player, but not this time. I have played many games through Live Chat Callouts, but this was by far the quickest one to set-up. I wish I had been more suspicious at the time, especially given their similarity in name.
