the 2 people on the top of the checkers board, Reg50 and Smallguy4422, both have 200 points and must have cheated to get there... yesterday i was on and neither of them were on the board that i recall... that many wins in 1 day seems impossible concidering i have great difficulty finding anyone to play in checkers half the time...
I'm deleting them
<edit> they will remain in scoretable untill someone else from top 20 gains or loses some points, I cannot update it myself.
Dont want to really interfere but, yes the evidence does suggest they are cheating. I know that they are friends who live the same area so it seems likely.
little late as they were deleted already a while back.. and reg already talked to me with excuses saying that he was just playing his friend.. he didnt really have an explanation for how they both won so many games against each other and managed to both go up in points... but ya know... it happens... i guess...?
There are ways to recognize it. They WERE cheating. I never deleted anyone without a very good reason.
yeah... dont worry matlu ive seen plenty of people we will get you used to sarcasm soon enough ;D
Sarcasm to a foreigner is pretty damn hard. Probably why he didnt understand my post regarding blitz in "clones".
to thank matlu for making such a great place and working so hard for us we will teach him in the ways of sarcasm though :P

LOL. They were deleted ??? They must have changed their names slightly and made a return. Sorry my mistake.
BTW, is sarcasm unique to english, because i have not come across another language that features it. If this is the case, than that's one more thing the english can be proud of ::) <--- Get it...sarcasm :P
Nonono, Sarcasm isn't unique to english. That would be silly.

as I already said SEVERAL times, they were only deleted, not banned. Nothing prevents them from creating new account with exactly same name

You are a bit mistaken
1. I know what is sarcasm (btw I guess I had more linguistic related education than anyone of you. I studied english-studies at university for some time)
2. it's sure not limited to english language. It's one of so called "semantic figures of speech" and it may appear in any language
btw Oscar Wilde (master of sarcasm and my favourite english writer) said that it is "the lowest form of wit". (It was sure meant sarcastically though)
This is sure also present in all (currently used) languages
wow........................ this is a great conversation :o
I have an inkling that Reg50 is back at it again. I keep seeing him playing a Guest.
its great that all this time no one has mentioned my typo in the topic name ;D
It wasn't a funny enough typo to make a joke out of..
my typos arent good enough for you now?:o
No! They'll never be good enough! Muhahahahahaaaaaah!
im ok with that... really... :'(
O.=.O duuuuuude!! i played with him not long ago! i saw his reg50 username in the games!
