Nope, you're good.Colemanus wrote:I tracked another players troops in a hidden troop game and told the third fellow about those troops.
I know it was uns sportmans like. But I and the other guy I broadcaster to in the open were cooks.
The one I gave info about was diamond rank.
Is this illegal?
Is this illegal
Why is it even unsportsmanlike? If two players are working together they can share info about troop placements surely.IcePack wrote:Unsportsmanlike, but not against the rules. Blue is wrong.
You can sure. That’s what I said you CAN do it within the rules. There will be a segment of the site that very much doesn’t like it and feels it’s unsportsmanlike to do it in a fog game. It’s sometbing that causes lot of arguments foes and ratings stuff. You might not care about that (and it’s fine), but just answering the question for him.mrbrownsays wrote:Why is it even unsportsmanlike?

I agree its ok, but I also recognize most ppl in my experience disagree on this that i've played in the past.Donelladan wrote:Some people think it4s unsportmanlike, some find it is ok.
Depends who you are playing.
I personally think it's 100% ok.
Surely that's what a world power would do in real life if they needed to. Doesn't mean that they aren't lying, just adds another element to the game imo.ZaBeast wrote:Simple. By doing that you're just bypassing the fog of war by letting others know about stuff they shouldn't see. If you want everyone to see the whole board you can play sunny games. I personnally am fine with people being vague about troops (saying player X has twice as many troops as you, a 3-digit stack, ...) but saying the exact numbers is in poor taste imo.
Well here is the [Official] purpose statement on Fog of War:ZaBeast wrote:Simple. By doing that you're just bypassing the fog of war by letting others know about stuff they shouldn't see.

It's just about levels of ambiguity, there is no "should" or "should not". Just like in a war, people use any means necessary to find out information about the opponents we do the same thing here. Chat is one method, but hacking another person's account, bribing their wife to track troops, breaking into their house to browse their computer (while taking nothing but the "H" out of the bathroom faucet) are all legit methods.Fog Of War
According to Wikipedia, the fog of war is a term used to describe the level of ambiguity in situational awareness experienced by participants in military operations. Now you can turn up the ambiguity in your Conquer Club games with this radical new game option! The fog of war masks enemy positions that are not adjacent to your forces (or your team's forces). It also masks territory and continent names in the log. Originally suggested by seraphesy back in Jan 2006. Enjoy!
