I got beat by Grzesiekd fair and square. However, I should have paid closer attention to the bonuses. Naturally he had one bonus worth 45 and everything else standard. oops

For those of you who don't want to get by tricky settings, feel free to blacklist.


Maybe there should be a thread that we report all these players...? It seems these types of threads get started about once per week and think they should continue since they do help protect the community from these really good players

I noticed his tricky settings, so my girlfriend beat him once, I beat him once, and when I joined the next similar game he made, he suddenly "have to go", and asked to vote for end. I did it. If you played with him just now, then probably he was not away for long :)
Anyway, it was fun to beat him around with his own ways. :)

Emperor B, thanks for tipping us to another douche bag. He's now on my blacklist.

You shouldn't have voted to end. At least he would have to suck up the loss and it might convince him to stop being silly with the settings.

he got me set Australia to a bonus of 40 and took it the very first turn....
any chance he could get banned for this...?

not going to get him banned. just blacklist him and move on.

He didn't do anything wrong.. when you clicked join you accepted the game as it was setup, if you didn't look closely enough It's not his fault.. he's cheap and really /yawnworthy, but not bannable

Yet another case of "if only non standard game settings were highlighted ..." :-)

nah, he'd just modify everything to be 1-2 off, with one thing to be massively far off..

So you are saying with 1 setting flagged red you would read the settings more carefully, but with all of them flagged red you would just click ahead?

diabolicus - hes saying it would be harder to notice

also, fizzer on the chat of that uservoice page was saying non-standard might be defined by alterations to the template used. all hed have to do his save a template of that game in that case.

if you dont want to play dont join people

pretty sure no one wants to play the games you create with one bonus 10x all the others. just getting the word out.

For my part, if I saw a whole slew of tweaks to the settings, I would decline the game without even really looking very hard at it unless it was set up by someone who I trust and who explained the tweaks to the game in the game lobby chat or game notes...

some people just are incapable of winning by skill so must use deceit

That's a pretty poor win percentage for a cheater.
