What is the difference between starting fresh with a new account (not playing with your old one to help you inflate your own score) and purposely deadbeating in speed games to get your score back to 1000? None, except the deadbeater has more games played and a different win percentage. There is no difference in how score is calculated.
Prankcall's girlfriend started 50 speed games for him when he was not around, and Prank ended up losing 1000+ points and his score went down to about 1000. 1 month later, Prank shot up to Colonel and then Brigadier, and is now one of the top players in this game. Did you guys all try to taint his achievement? No. As a matter of fact, Scott and Prank are buddies/rivals in speed freestyle games. Scott, you didn't have a problem with Prank's climb, did you?
Prank and Benjikat both worked their way back up from scratch, a feat that is difficult to do. It took a lot of work for these players to get back to their original scores before their women messed with their accounts, and it was even a greater accomplishment for them to hit Colonel soon afterwards!
If you do the math, these players would have had
HIGHER scores if they had continued to play the same style of games from their original scores. Prank would have shot up to Brigadier quicker in speed freestyle games, and Benji would have discovered Waterloo at a score of 2200 and his score would have been 3200 now instead of 3000. Restarting from a score of 1000 only hurt them.
"Hats" off to these two players.

They have overcome tough obstacles to make it to where they are now. If you think that it is easy to make it 500+ pts past your average score by resetting your score to 1000, then you guys would have deadbeated in speed games already.
I can't believe some of you guys aren't giving Benjikat the credit he deserves. Or, rather, I can't believe you guys aren't giving Benjikat the same credit you gave Prank when he hit 3000.
