I found very strange events in my last game. These events lead me to think that a couple of players are cheating, by having a secret alliance, and I would like to report it.
1. A player named heatz had chance to prevent another player, named dennis9572, to gain 5 extra armies for europe and he did not.
2. Next deniss9572 changes cards and gets 15 armies and he eliminates me. With the cards he won, he was abble to obtain 20 more armies and whith these eliminate heatz and he did not.
3. Often that heatz played, dennis9572 played one hour lather.
I'm afraid that there is no evidence of cheating in any form. Your biggest complaint is that he eliminated you and took your cards instead of breaking Heatz's bonus. This is just very basic strategy. The smartest move in an escalating game is to eliminate players AND get their cards; because you can immediately get more armies. At that point in the game, you were the biggest target because you were the weakest target. Remember, it's not very smart to waste a lot of armies trying to break a player's bonus. All that happens is that you weaken both players and you leave yourself open to being eliminated.
In short, Dennis had to choose between losing a bunch of armies by breaking Heatz's bonus or eliminating you and getting a bunch of armies.
Which one would you have chosen?
I can see that you are relatively new to the game and don't have a lot of experience yet. However, cheating is a very serious accusation and should not be taken lightly. In this particular case, both players played fairly and with sound strategy. I'm sure that an apology would be appreciated and help smooth over any bad feelings.
I feel I owe you an apology, because I may have rushed in to denunciating a series of events that seem suspicious to me. I understand that my exipirience in the game is not that vast to judge the behavior of my fellow opponents. For that reason I went to you right away so a real authority in the game could judge this situation properly.

That's an excellent response. I hope you have pm'ed the players involved as well.
In future. These is a facility call game finder. Type two players names into it and it will list every game played by the two. This is a very usefull tool in searching for suspicious activity.

Heatz still has premium by the way.
That's because he was actually busted several days before this thread was created for other reasons. He then purchased the premium in order to keep the one account.
So is he going to be allowed to stick around? Because he is in a tournament of mine, in the games I'm in! and I got PMs from someone who is apparently sitting his account, and playing for him. It a no elimination tournament so should I let him stay or get a replacement since it's the beginning of the tournament?
