In a quick look, I can see three games right off the cuff where ljex and santoch play Oasis together. I can also see where ljex also has regurlar allies that constantly play together.
8602983, 7926807, 8602986. In all three games santoch is on team 2 and ljex is on team 1. Team one is consistently dominant and team 2 is constantly undermined from within. In 2 of the 3 games santoch successfully deploys in the first round and then misses his turn in round 2 which puts team 2 at a severe disadvantage. In the third game, he attack his own team directly vs waiting a round. In reviewing these types of games, it is clear there are patterns occuring.
Those 3 games are examples where those people joined against him, sure. And he did win, sure, but what about the near countless other times he's won on that map? Usually against people he's never played against? Are those multi's, too?
In general, a reasonable set of House Rules for fair play on any good gaming site is as follows:
- Having more than one account in a game, including having access to more than one account for a brief period.
- Entering an anonymous game knowing who another player is/who other players are in the game.
- Breaking communication rules in games where these are restricted.
- Communicating about alliances prior to the game starting or entering the game with a preset alliance.
- Misusing a "dummy" account in a game.
- Allying with another player only because of previous knowledge.
- Carrying an alliance from one game to another.
- Linking actions or alliances in one game with actions or alliances in another.
- Entering a game with a preset plan to attack other players.
- Threatening action against a player for real or perceived cheating.
That's nice, but even as our Community Guidelines say, we do not adopt customs of other sites just because they're "general house rules". CC is in a world of it's own.
My guess is ljex's string of unusually good luck is more related to these types of behaviors outside of the game over good gaming and good strategy inside of the game.
- Having more than one account in a game, including having access to more than one account for a brief period.
- Entering a game with a preset plan to attack other players.
- Carrying an alliance from one game to another.
- Misusing a "dummy" account in a game.
- Communicating about alliances prior to the game starting or entering the game with a preset alliance.
Again, I will leave it to the moderators to review and decide if this sort of behavior is acceptable.

The above is only useful if he actually is proven to be a multi, not evidence to suggest he is.

ps on the fast post: Yes, considering that they join his games, he doesn't invite him.
