b00060 cheating? [cleared]

[matjam]

Accused:
b00060


The accused are suspected of:
Using an automated script to play a game.


Game number(s):
8352460

Comments:
Take a look at the game log between 2011-01-21 14:13:06 and 2011-01-21 14:13:22, b00060 was able to make 17 attacks in 20 seconds. He either has a very fast internet connection and super fast reflexes or is using an automated script to play the game. Several of the attacks took place in the same second and I know that no one is that fast.

Are scripts illegal? I mean I just typed in the command prompt, "beat matjam". It seems to be working, but I have a few tweaks left so it can automatically respond to comments in the games as well.

Do you mean clickies? I don't think those are cheating. Cheap maybe, but not cheating.

Here is a link to the clickies thread, you too can download them

Clickies are useful, and can make your turns a lot easier to take, if you combine them with BOB you might even win on stallingrad, das schloss, or any of the more interesting maps.

matjam, I hope this helps

Is using automated scripts to play the game cheating? Hmmm...if not then this game is seriously lame and there is not point in playing. Are you serious b000060???

Automated scrips are cheating. Scripts like BOB and the aforementioned clickies are legal. Clickies remove the need for conformation, basicly you can drag your troops to where you want and they autoattack, and since dragging can be done quite quickly, it can give a major advantage, but since it is available to the entire community and published it is deemed legal. Especially since in itself it will not (is not supposed to) give you a win. Also the player still has to make the calls. An automated script just does all the thinking for you too..
BOB helps you see all bonus regions, and attackpaths, very usefull, oh and it is capable of keeping screenshots so you dont have to memorize a FOG game.

thebest712 is one of the faster players around.

Although it is not illegal, i find freestyle to be no fun and in sequential it is not that big a deal.

Fair enough. In my humble opinion having a bot play for you in a game of strategy is lame. How is anyone meant to defend against bot attacks, it is impossible and takes the fun out of playing. I was hoping to learn some strategy tips by playing b000060 but I guess I've only found out how some players will win by any means possible, legal or not.

[SirSebstar]

but he uses no bot...
if he uses clickies, then all he has done is remove the confirmation, thus speeding up his internet compared to you by 3 times.1 move a second is normal for fast internet. 2 to 3 moves a second is possible with clickies
if he is using a bot that plays for him instead of him playing himself, then he would be booted..

ridiculous


you guys are fucking losers.

i know, you say "But he is in your clan" that doesnt mean shit to men like B and myself... we had each other foed forever.

this guy doesnt cheat.. in fact he kind of sucks.


you people are real losers.

adios

[king achilles]

As what the others had already explained, using scripts like clickable map is not cheating. This is cleared. I suggest that you stick to playing Sequential games or if you must play freestyle, play with friends.

And quit with the flaming especially in this forum.
