Accused:

Lonewolff

The accused are suspected of:

Other:
Extreme rudeness, cursing, swearing, and general unsportsmanlike conduct.
Most importantly of all...
Deliberately throwing the game to ensure I would have a less chance of winning.



Game number(s):

Game 6957068

Comments:
First turn was mine and as it was a manual game, it turned out that I dropped right next to Lonewolff. So I attacked him, just to see how dice would go. They went remarkably well in my favor and next thing I knew he was insulting me and promising that his only goal was to make me lose.

As that's one of the unwritten rules to not deliberately throw a game...I'm making a report.

You may very well be right, but I honestly don't pay much attention to the ratings.

Bet you will in the future though huh? ;)

I just tend to foe anyone I come across who has less than a 4.3 or so (with at least 100 games played). Works awesome. Don't get any assclowns joining my games (except jefjef :shock: but thats cuz I invite him. :D )

This needs to be turned into a Severe Ratings Abuse complaint.

you kind of just kept arguing with him. When playing against a jerk (other than myself) I : 1) foe automatically OR 2)no foe so I can egg him on to really piss him off.

From time to time unfortunately you will run across a player who chooses to resort to vulgarity and lewd comments like this guy has done to you in this game.

Is his comments and behavior out of line? Most certainly, but we don't come and moderate chat when it comes to this sort of thing unless it involves bigotry, severe harassment or personal information being divulged. All of this is in the community guidelines. So with the chat behavior he is Cleared of wrong doing, Foe him so you don't have to play against him and Rate him Accordingly so others know what their getting into, but with a 4.1 rating I'm guessing others have already stated that you can get this sort of behavior from playing this guy.

Now as far as throwing a game, generally speaking the throwing the game portion of the rules is about throwing the game in favor of someone you know and like, a friend, family member, clan member or so on. This guy didn't throw the game towards any one person, of course his actions of solely going after you made it a lot easier for anyone other then you and him to win, but he technically didn't single one person out and do their bidding for them to help solidify the game for them. He didn't agree with a move you made and instead of moving past it and playing a tactical game he revenge attacked you the whole game. This can be resolved by leaving any one or combination of the following tags on his ratings:
  • irrational
  • reckless
  • vindictive
  • sore loser
  • clueless
  • poor strategy
So he is Cleared of throwing the game, once again Foe & Rate Accordingly.

Now with jefjef's suggestion he will be investigated for Ratings abuse. Looking at it just briefly I can tell you I'm pretty sure he is Guilty of it, but I will collect the evidence and give you the verdict on this shortly..

Pending..

Aright there is a reason that we do our homework on cases and don't just go by appearances.

From at first glance I would say that Lonewolf is misusing the rating system but after looking into the games and players involved in those ratings I cant undeniably say that he didn't have cause to rate that way.

He usually instigates his interesting game chats, people respond similarly as how he talks, thus giving some justification for his poor ratings. The game becomes an exchange of swearing and cuss words. Based from those poor ratings he gave, almost, if not all, the chats from those reference games are just terrible to look at. The ratings are within reason. So the conclusion to all this is
  • A.The more someone engages Lonewolff in the game chat, the more aggravating it will be.
  • B. Foe & Move On you wont miss anything.

Feel free to report him if he does say something that is bigoted, homophobic or becomes cyber bullying or harassment.
