So, I assume the reason juventino is only a major (despite winning 71 percent of his games!) is because he plays low ranks?
Just curious.
It takes 30 secs to make a search. It isnt that hard. I will guide you. On the left, click on game finder, then type my name and hit search. You will find that i have only (almost) been playing classic 1v1 for the last 6 months. I start the games so not sure who will join. Often good players who is looking for a 1v1 freestyle game it is not the best way to play for points.

Whilst, you're at it angola, do a similar search on these 'witch-hunters' (especially the one who started this thread).

Nope. It wasn't that hard, but I am a tad lazy.
I was just curious how someone has won 71 percent of their games and had such a low score.
Has everyone lost sight of the fact that this was three games. To call this systematic farming is just too much of a stretch. Also, it was clearly done not so much for points as entertainment purposes, but thats irrelevant.
As far as joining games with a suspected multi..well... they still have not been busted, so really it is joining against a possible multi.
In the last multi joining scenario, the person joining was friends with the multi and knew he was a multi...He wasnt guessing.
Now, trying to profit by joining lots of new recruits is systematic farming, partly because they are more likely to leave, be busted, or just be inexperienced. So, Its really a farming issue. As such, they should be warned not to join too many more new recruits, because then it would be farming....and possibly even warned not to target those that might be multies...but I might be a multi...so that is a tough one.
Clearly these guys shouldnt have joined these three games. Really they shouldnt have joined one...but it was a set up game, and if they turn out not to be multies, then there isnt one rule breaking.
Joining 3 of one new recruit is pushing it, but it still isnt systematic farming, until well they systematically farm new recruits.
If they join another3, or another 10, its pretty obvious, but right now they were slippery, clearly didnt violate the letter of the law, and probably were more interested in the entertainment value of seeing a turnless game, then the few points made...
Poor judgement probably, but hardly sinister, and obviously not a systematic farming scheme, by any standards whatsoever.
As far as hoping someones a multi, well...they may want to shy from those from now on too. The problem is, there is most always plausible deniability, unless the person knows for a fact that the person is a multi...If the person knows for a fact...it is a completely different case. They are practically a multi themselves de-facto. by joining one. An accessory at the very least. But thats a different kind of case.
Certainly they deserve to be called out for this, but its hard to imagine anything more than a warning to not be so stupid, that hopefully many will read also.
Ironically... JR and I were looking for games to join...I considered one of these myself...but did not think it would be very fun.
I'm Spanking Monkey now....err...I mean I'm a Spanking Monkey now...that shoots milk Too much. I know.
It's interesting that this case becomes mainly about juventino...but that is with reason as he admitted it in the other thread...it's also funny how far the excuses range from....it's only a minor offense to they mite not be multis...but either way their intentions were to pick up the free points...ie attempted man slaughter

Who did you ask? I didnt hear you voice go up in the end so i didnt see nor hear the question.
I found your "question" to be retorical and without address.
It's not rhetorical, I'm asking anyone. If joining against reported but not busted 'alleged multies' is legal then you should be off the hook!
Innocent until proven guilty. If I accused you of been a multi, and no one joined any of your games because of that allegation, say it took 5days for the allegation to be resolved.... That would be pretty shitty for you.

Post me a link stating that it is against the rules to join an open game? If they are still in waiting games, they have not been judged to be multis at that time.

But this hasnt happen. We dont have any points given out from the multirule..
As I wanted to say. We have a problem since we cannot know the result in the investigation about the multis. If anyone joins a game and finish the game before the "multi" is blocked to play. Is this a crime (a cc-crime)?

again, you keep sidetracking everything. The thread was started in reference of these 3 players farming new recruits. The multi is a bonus.

more like "attempted possible multi-slaughter"

Ok. Then I can adress it as I did earlier. How can it be against the rules to join one game with a new recruit. It is against the rules to systematically "farming" new recruits. Is is not systematically if you play one game out of 500 against a new recruit.
Or is it?
edit: I speak for myself, i cannot speak for the others. Not sure about their games.
