timing out in nuclear games

[eddie2]

ok question is if a player keeps timing out in a team game where 2 v 1 me being the one why is this not classified as cheating as player that is timing out is taking my bonus with troups. gaining an area bonus for troups then not cashing cards this is 3rd time he has done it so effectivly he should of had 2 trades or been kicked out yes or no.

as i am on the understanding that the use of unfair means to gain advantage in a game is cheating so if this person 3 times on the trot has done this is this not an example of it

no for the something time. timing out of your turns is not cheating

I personally think this is a form of cheating. If a player takes the time to attack, knowing he/she will get a card, the player should be forced to take that card. The player made the decision to attack, therefore they made the decision to receive a card. By timing out on purpose it allows a player to get the benefit of an attack, without any care of having to cash. This is obvious cheating and should be treated as such.

I agree in that I always thought the site should be programmed as such so that if you time out on your turn, it is treated the same way as if you had ended your turn and chosen not to reinforce at all. Not only would this stop this, it would also give people their card on the off chance they simply forgot to end their turn.

It may not be cheating, but I put it right up there with intentionally missing turns so you can deploy multiple troops in a no spoils game. Its definitely shady gameplay and cheap tactics and I would label the player as such in a review.

now the other player is doing it not only holding the cards but if the cards are for there regions they are stopping me from getting them cards have a look game no is Game 6255223

I think although its brilliantly thought off, its also a tactic comparable to the freestyre double turn. I hope this problem soon gets elliminated.

somone has just said to me would this come under intentional deadbeating

Technically, they are not deadbeating. They are taking their turns, just not ending them.

I'm afraid your C&A-complaint won't do much good.

I believe a popular quote for this mess would be:

Suck it up, Cupcake

[eddie2]

but in lackattacks explaination of nuclear he clearly states that u will nuke your own teritorys which they are not doing as they are deadbeating the end of there shots

[lord voldemort]

It is not cheating. As a cheating and abuse moderator im telling you. We have talked about it with other mods. And we feel that although cheap play its not against the rules. Most especially as the cards are random and you can own several of the same card at the same time

[eddie2]

ok then so what was the point of nuclear spoils if you can just do this. it therefore makes nuclear spoils pointless as every body will just start doing it

[natty dread]

as every body will just start doing it

No, only the scumbags.
