Not Really Cheating But........

I recently played a game against a player called gebabje. He/she missed their first turn which, when they played their second turn, changed the game completely. Nothing really out of the ordinary there but I did some checking and it seems that it is the tactic of gebabje to miss their first turn to gain advantage. For example

Game 3582863
Game 3582869 - against me :x
Game 3582876
Game 3582864

In all these games and more it has happened and I think it is a really poor tactic tbh, what do others think?

I think you should leave a poor rating if you don't like it and stop whining in GD.

not against the rules, but it is being a poor sport. i would just leave an appropriate rating and tag.
however, it isn't really that great of a tactic...-0

hes right, it is annoying to wait out 24hours, but usually when someone misses a turn it gives you a big advantage especially in 1v1 games, going first can be the winning decider :lol:

You're right... it's a tactic and not cheating at all.

I see. My apologies... I had been used to assume that when someone complained about an issue that was really a matter of their own opinion and asked for community feedback to back them up when community feedback won't achieve anything, particularly when that issue has been discussed many, many times before, it was whining. But if you say you aren't whining, I shall take your word for it. Permit me to rephrase.

Leave a poor rating if you don't like it and stop cluttering up GD with pointless threads. :roll:
