TWG V Postgame Analysis

[roopert]

Well, I could care less if they get a new banner or not, but they seem to want one desperately bad so I propose it as a punishment. However, if from now on there is no cheating or using an unfair advantage by ANYONE then go ahead and give them their banners. Let them have it. Who cares? As long as they don't do it again I'm fine with it. The past can't be undone. All I care about is that this game be played the right way, with honest people who just want to think and have a good time.

Blahblah, glad to know I'm not the only one who feels this way and just wants to play a good game.

BOOO!!!... everyone should just shut up now.. Yall are attacking someone for doing something that you don't like but you all can't prove that it's cheating.. because like he said, It's not in the rules. He found a loophole and thats all there is too it. I actually commend him for doing it. finding and exploiting loopholes are the only way to show that they are there and can be fixed. Of course you could tell the operator about it, but in past games it had never been done so there would be no threat level to change the rules.. Well, now there is. So change the rules.. This game stands the crooked way that it is, or atleast it should. And if I had played this game on the humans side, and not got voted off on day 2, then if the operator didn't give me the new banner for winning a game, I would make it myself. If anybody on the humans team does this and it gets deleted, I support you in doing this, and I give you permission on having it up.

Also someone said something about hacking accounts or doing something to look at pms, well if it's not in the rules it should be. If it isn't then shame on them for it not being there.

Also, whorli knew tass had her password, she could of just changed it under the suspicion of him being a wolf and taken the chance to trust him, which she obviously did. So if you want to blame anyone then you could blame the source, but really don't think anyone deserves blame other than those who have completely gone balistic over this.

This kind of thing is what's known as an "unwritten rule". It's not in the rules because Loog didn't feel people would be that dishonorable.

please show me in the rules where it says that i can't access someone else's PMs if i have access to it. thats right, it doesn't.

so, YOU may consider it cheating, but no where in the RULES (which i AM a stickler for) does it say that i can't.

WHAT.

I had no idea it was that bad.

That's not just a boot from the game. That's grounds for de-modding.

Be glad I'm not a sysadmin or you'd be gone by now.

So, basically, you're saying it would be OK to hack Kilga's computer and steal his browser history in order to see who he sent PMs to? Or even steal the password to his AIM account and allow the people to PM you for the night?

You should be ejected from the game forever for this. I'm really angry to see that you stooped to this level to win a forum-based game.

And we all thought you were just really good at the game. Everyblody lost so much respect for you for that.

You are making it sound so much worse than it really is.

Yea, it wasn't exactly right that Tass did that, but it would be the same thing as standing behind her and seeing it.

Lets just say, this won't happen again.

[blahblah18]

how do you know that it won't

[lightdarkness]

how do you know that it won't

Well, from now on, whoever hosts can only put in the PM's (HUMAN, WOLF, SEER, GUARDIAN) ect.

Also, if 2 people that know each other in real life have access to the others PM, I suggest you either delete your PM after you get it, or change your password.

[flypie743]

I thought Tass could figure things out on his own rather than resorting to something as low as that.

I just lost major respect for him for doing that.

It's a forum game.

Don't take it that seriously.

[flypie743]

It's a forum game now, but what next?

[blahblah18]

thats exactly the point LD... its a forum game... why cheat on it, we're all just trying to have some fun and what not, but it makes it really hard

[Kilgamayan]

Yeah, it's a forum game.

Who cheats in a forum game?

This has been a learning game.

Like kilga said, it was an unwritten rule because it had never been exploited before.

Those who are caught cheating in the future, will be banned from several games.

[blahblah18]

This might be the most ridiculous thing I've ever thought of, and I don't entirely mean it, but its so sad that I woudl evne have to think of it... have one extra person in the TWG game... his role is "cheat catcher" to see if anyone contacts him thats dead, or tries to ask for a PM or a SS or anything like that... he hunts the cheaters while the humans and wovles hunt each other
