Secret alliance or multi? You decide... [Cleared of multis]

I suspect a secret alliance, or possibly a multi with the following:

Newbs
chessmyantidrug

They seem to play numerous games together, never attack each other, and leave massive open borders between each other.

Take a look at game 620185. Between turns 6 and 11, no armies were placed on Columbia by chessmyantidrug and only 1 was placed on Panama by Newbs.

Other games these two have shared are: 617302, 599062 and 668533. Other players in those games seem to have suspected something was fishy, as well.

I filled out a support ticket but have no idea how long it takes for the admins to get to those.

Any thoughts?

You almost managed to fill out the form...

I would put my money on multis.

LOL! No worries, since you are so open with it, crawling in the dust, people may just hold off the sticks for now...

I do have to ask though, when reports like this are made, how long does it take for anything to happen on it? Do they check IP addresses?

I'm kind of hoping I at least get the points for this game, because even if this is a multiaccount, he can't seem to win any games.

It'll take a while. Maybe a week, depending on how busy they are. In the end though, everything gets checked. But, people who end up being busted are not kicked out of any games. What they do? Well, that's their business...

LOL...it looks like they're both deadbeating now that he/they have been called out on their cheating. And the fact they were getting their butts handed to them despite the cheating makes it even more special. Good times!

Newbs & chessmyantidrug have been Cleared of multis. They were busted for some reason, but I'm not sure what that was?

Secret alliance.

If you look through the game log, they had one army in Columbia and 2 armies in Panama for about 5 turns without attacking each other. On top of that they managed to throw scores of armies at myself and another player in the game.

It seemed suspect, hence the original post.

On top of that, they've pulled similar stunts in other games.

I maintain we did not have a secret alliance. Of course, you will never believe anything I have to say.

I guess having an unfortified border means you have an alliance with someone. If that's true, I'm guilty of having secret alliances with many, many other people.

Like I said, an opinion has already been formed. There's nothing I can do to change that other than show I've beaten Newbs in other games. Guilty until proven innocent. You guys are first-class all the way.
