Accused:

Leonard*

The accused are suspected of:

Being Multis

Game number(s):

Game 4765354
Introduces phrases “Foe’s list”
Uses retort in game chat criticizing a player for eliminating for spoils in a non-escalating game.

Game 4915810
Argues terminator strategy without having played terminator before.

Game 4931427
Wins first City mogul game played (three player).

Game 4954776
Wins first new world game played.

Game 5043944
Wins first arms race game played in 4 turns

Game 5093693
Understands the terms “RT”, “forting” (old term) and stall tactics without having experienced them in previous game chats.


Summary: While I can't see evidence of in game cheating, (except for potentially Game 4972887 where he/she is accused), the wins reek of a multiple account. A new player only 25 games in will not understand the aforementioned terms and strategies without more experience.

This will be a difficult capture because he uses a proxy. Obvious multi. Is French, or from country near Greenwich Mean Time Zone who speaks French. Admitted to cooking dinner at a time that would have been noon on the east coast of the US.

Could it be that he is simply a superior strategist and picks up on game concepts quickly?

"Argues terminator strategy without having played terminator before" - this merely proves that he researched the rules on terminator games before playing and employed common sense strategy (I won my first terminator game against seven other players of varying experience).

"Wins first City mogul game played (three player)." - so what? He probably played well, understood the concept of not wasting armies on neutrals and exposing himself, and got lucky.

"Wins first new world game played." - and??? So did I. Just exercised common sense strategy.

If this guy is French, then watch out! He could be the reincarnation of Napoleon Bonaparte!!

Hoagy- I'll bet you a premium membership that this is a multi.

Not saying it isn't, just that you'd have a hard time proving it.

Fwiw, I've come across my fair share of apparent multis, secret diplomats, vindictive gamewreckers, deadbeats, you name it, and I can understand your frustration.
