This post just pisses me off. I want to make 3 points here.
1. AAFitz says himself; ".i did not play a game with them....". He never played with either of them, and yes he's making accusations. So yes, you did make these accusations lightly. I've played many games with both of them at the same time, and I have won many, and I also have never suspected either of them of cheating.
2. People who play real time games like to find other people who are on at the same time, and have similar rank. I play a ton of rt's and I have a list of about 10 to 20 people who I invite every night. Oh and by the way, I win a lot of games too, winning doesn't make you a cheater.
3. There are about 14,000 players on conquer club. Of these maybe 7,000 actually play regularly, the other half being people who registered and then stopped playing. Of those 7,000, maybe 10% log on regularly and play real time games. So of those 700, during the 4 hours that an rt player might be on, you would run into about 1/6 (4hrs/24hrs) of them. So thats about 117 players. Now a simple calculation shows that only 16% of players are Leiutenant or above. captains normally like to play with people of similar rank or higher, so that leaves about 20 players of similar rank who are on at the same time each night. Of them, you have to find players who like the same games as you, escalating vs. flatrate, etc. So after all this, you can see why most people who regularly play rt's end up playing with the same people most of the time. That and comment #, THAT THEY ARE FRIENDS.
