The living room TV seems to play nothing but Jay Jay the Jet Plane recently.


Hmm, I get Power Rangers, Totally Spies and Spongebob Squarepants most of the time.

One other advantage of an X-box though, it plays DVDs, VCDs and raw DIVX files - so download / record from satellite, write to DVD, pack kids off to bedroom with X-box, sit back and enjoy 36" widescreen TV. Most useful at this time, during the Euro 2004 Football championships - that's real football, where you use your feet by the way.

As well as... legs, arms, chest, back... oh ya and head.

Yeah, but not your hands (except the goalkeeper) for 99% of the game as in certain other sports that are known as "football" for some strange reason.

Well, count me out for anything that requires using my head!

Morning Magnum, damoose, 'Moser, Loth, and everyone else that I missed! Thankfully our twins are the youngest (12 now) and their tastes run more towards Lord of the Rings than Spongebob. Of course, that also means that their tastes run more towards my favorite games, as well!

Hi all. There is an interesting thread on the Forum board about "cheating and multiple 60K games submitted" I encourage you all to read it an chime in as you see fit.

                            
#13580  by Citizen Weyrleader - 6/18/2004 12:48:03 PM

Check out the Metaverse rankings. Loth has been removed. Check out the Forum on "cheating..." for possible reason. Hope it is not true.

                            
#13581  by Citizen damoose - 6/18/2004 12:54:56 PM

Indeed.

                      
#13582  by Citizen Evil Druid - 6/18/2004 12:55:20 PM

I don't belive it.

                          
#13583  by Citizen Weyrleader - 6/18/2004 1:17:56 PM

It appears to me, by comparing the Altaverse listing by rank, that Lothmorg the Black, a Guardian of Justice, and The Renegage, a G.R.O.S.S., are the two that have beem removed from the Metaverse.

                            
#13584  by Citizen Naqmir - 6/18/2004 1:22:44 PM

I can't imagine either of them cheating.Its all suposed to be about fun not who has the top score.

                            
#13585  by Citizen Evil Druid - 6/18/2004 1:26:31 PM

Well I do not believe it. Can Loth still post here or would that privledge been removed. Should check over at the hall.

Renegade does not make sense. He has been around forever and he does not post that many games. If he was cheating he would be alot higher in the rankings.

Loths, submitting would look like he was but I believe in my heart he would not, even if he could. If he isfollowing a strict formula I wonder if that would appear that way to frogboys audit.

For Honor and Justice

                          
#13586  by Veteran the 3rd child - 6/18/2004 1:51:21 PM

I agree, I believe 100% loth wouldn't do that the man i think is a former marine, i've talked with him many times my judge of his personality says he is a man of honor and strong virtues.

with Renegade his complaints in the past about the state of the "Masoverse" would easier lend credence to him cheating, but from what he tells us of himself, he doesn't have the expertise to hack a saved game.

I voice my support for these two, how about the rest of you guardians?

                      
#13587  by Citizen NewfyScotian - 6/18/2004 1:56:34 PM

I am disappointed that cheating happens and people do it for different reasons.

No one yet (including Stardock) has accused either of these people of cheating. We just assume that because they are no longer on the Metaverse.

I think that we have to wait for a statement from Stardock/Frogboy as to what exactly is going on.

                          
#13588  by Veteran the 3rd child - 6/18/2004 1:59:04 PM

true and it is possible that they have to be removed during the auditing process for some reason, but it could also be possible they are the first of many to become suspect do to high submission rates and scores, and that too is disturbing.

                      
#13589  by Citizen _Attila_ - 6/18/2004 2:17:26 PM

do to high submission rates and scores, and that too is disturbing.


i would be wondering about those who are newbies...and know about game just a little enough to finish one or two games a day...would start submitting up to 10 games...
But those two were here for ages, C'mon these are #1 and not sure what Renegade was but still and they know how to play up to 15 games a day...

                        
#13590  by Veteran the 3rd child - 6/18/2004 2:22:09 PM

well renegade just famous as well as one of our veterans if that means anything, i guess

C'mon these are #1 and not sure what Renegade was but still and they know how to play up to 15 games a day
do you mean your suspicous of that attila?

                      
#13591  by Citizen Evil Druid - 6/18/2004 2:41:41 PM

Attila is saying these guys would not need to cheat. They are veterans that know the secrets of the fast game. Makes no sense. Renegade did not submit very many games. He has just been around forever, was why he was so highly ranked.

                          
#13592  by Veteran the 3rd child - 6/18/2004 2:46:38 PM

ah i see.

I know what you mean!!

This is not how I wanted to slowly make my way up the metaverse ladder.

A very sad day for the metaverse if the allegations are true.

Loth has responded in the Senate Halls, Halls of Guardians, Maso strategies.

                            
#13597  by Veteran the 3rd child - 6/18/2004 3:21:39 PM

glad to hear he has made a statement on this

I just read it. I am very, very upset about this. Loth uses a certain formula to play the game. He researches the same techs in the same order and uses the same initial picks at the beginning of the game. He generally has the game in hand prior to 2190 and has to wait until after that to submit the game, therefore creating the same finish date for every game. I'm not seeing any cheating in this so far......

This is indeed a very dark day in the Metaverse.

Theoden what can we do.
