Maybe Elistuy is the account he plays on the other computer ?
Yeah but I'm sure they [multi hunters] can tell the difference i.e log in times. Just have to wait and see.Bruceswar wrote:Scott-Land wrote:Wow-- nice research Bruce.

Possibly, but they would still come up as the same IP. Assuming both computers are in the same location. Which would be true according to that live chat take.
That we shall. If you mutli hunters need more info they can PM as some of this info was a bit to personal to post on the forums.Scott-Land wrote:Yeah but I'm sure they [multi hunters] can tell the difference i.e log in times.

Nice work-

This was what he wrote to me in response to being asked why he never played competitive games;
'' I Do.....just not from my account...LOL, I watch the accounts of 3 people regularly and finish up games for another 5....LOL ''
Still got the PM if anybody wants it, seems pretty damning to me in light of what else has been posted.

2008-08-18 10:20:49 - maxatstuy: yay elistuy...win one without my help this time
This particular chat leads me to believe however that elistuy and maxatstuy are not brothers, but multis. It seems like he inadvertently commented while logged in with the wrong account, realized his mistake after half a minute and tried to cover it up. The grammar and spelling are also very similar throughout a huge number of games.

if I was doing anything wrong bruce, you would be the last person I would tell about it. I play for many people on conquerclub who cant play because they cant for what ever reason. My brother is the person who go to me to join conquerclub and I play for him whenever he is unavailable to play. there is nothing wrong with babysitting accounts, and I have no idea what you are talking about. I am just waiting for someone to post you on C&A for throwing games to scott...you see to do it quite often, maybe you to have a secret alliance
Sure LF, if you're sitting the way Max does. Maybe you should actually go through some of the information Bruce has supplied before you start attacking him.LFAW wrote:Bruce your talking crap mate, I also babysit peoples accounts. You going to accuse me to?


You forgot that 'babysitting' an account to gain an advantage in freestyle team games is prohibited, especially if your teammate is able to take the turn later that day. I could list an infamous precedent, but I'm waiting for JR's comment.LFAW wrote:I have gone through the information Scott. Techincally what Max is doing is legal, I don't agree with the bragging but babysitting is no big deal. If he is not a multi then there is no reason for him to be accused of 'cheating'.
The term baby sitting abuse was designed to stop things like LFAW is playing Scott, LFAW knows Scotts p/w, LFAW wins by 'sitting' for Scott and doing shit moves.
So yes this is no babysitting abuse as he is gaining no points for the maxatstuy account nor is he creating new games.
Therefore no abuse = nothing to 'charge' him with.

Bruce has damning evidence to support his case .Do you honestly think a little blip of a statement like this is enough to sway public opinion ?LFAW wrote:Bruce your talking crap mate, I also babysit peoples accounts. You going to accuse me to?
We all have account sat at one time or another if they're on vacation , work, have plans or whatever. It seems the situation with Max isn't about account sitting, it's about abusing it- it's about taking your partners turns when it's conventient. There's quite a big edge in casual freestyle team games if both partners are able to play at the same time. What Bruce is suggesting, and I believe also, is that Max is taking those turns for his doubles partners because they just aren't logged in at the time. There's also a complaint about a secret alliance LF.LFAW wrote:I have gone through the information Scott.

Understandable Phantom, I'm sure that's the original reason why they allow others to account sit. Don't think anyone is saying he abused the rules in your case.phantomzero wrote:I normally try my best to stay out of the forums, but I figured I'd respond to this one.
I travel a ton for work (120+ days a year), and when I'm unable to take my turns I'll have Deliaselene or Maxatstuy take my turns for me. It all depends on who's available and how long I'm gone. They have to take some of my turns perhaps a dozen times each month. This is certainly not abuse. I'll either email my sitters or log in quick from my phone and let them know how long I'll be unavailable for.
Without people on CC like Max, I'd be missing a ton of turns and delaying the games for many people. Thank you Max!
