Comments:
This one just smells funny. All players hail from Brazil. All play each other a lot (several games include other players as well). However:
- Ariroto joined CC Mon Jun 22, 2009. He has played 9 games (various maps) and won 8. That in itself stinks to high heaven. The only one he lost was a 2-player game, and that to a player NOT from Brazil (and not from the group I've mentioned).
- BUGIO joined CC Mon Jun 15, 2009 . He has played 8 games (6 with Ariroto, 4 with Pox) and won 0.
- Pox joined CC Mon Jun 22, 2009 . He has played 12 games (4 with Ariroto, 4 with BUGIO, 4 with Bugio) and won 0.
A small group of players that pop up in each others' games isn't in itself suspicious. But when one of them constantly wins (89%) that flashes a warning light to me. As I said, I can't be certain, but it smells ...
