Posts from Reports on online games and their confirmations (Spring 2009 season).

Pavel Dubrovin (Red, Castle, Valessa, Valessa) def numOne (Blue, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti), 2sm4d(3), 1.3.6.

Confirmed.
Spawned at the top. On the very first day, I revealed 2 cons near the castle, checked them - both level 3-4, eh, leaving them for the second day... :) Then Shakti took a short walk around the respawn, cleared 2 crypts (min and max), knocked back some resources with the stalkers. Picked up Inferno as a secondary, a +3 cuirass. At home: 1-5, in the citadel, plus mushroom rings.
On the second day - a gnoll hut with 15. I break back home and go to take the cons. I have expert Earth, but no Slow given, only Shield in reserve. The first one is level 3, the second is max - they fell pretty easily.
At the start of the third day, I take another mini con, a Pandora's Box for 10000 exp. Upgrade cats and minotaurs. Shakti has expert Earth, Air, and has Haste. I decide to hit ГО and go visit, since there was essentially nothing else to do (there was a stretched treasure zone in the underground, near Inferno, but I didn't notice anything tasty there). Under 30 devils took down 1 angel, 2 minotaurs, and chipped a few harpies. I fall just short of the castle, and only because I didn't position on the dash (all heroes were standing in a chain). Valya breaks back home. A crowd of ducks scared me - I decided to run upward, taking out 3 steeds along the way. On the next turn, Pasha attacks himself, with a noticeable advantage in meat, and makes it clear who's boss here :smile15:

Thanks, Pasha, for the game!

vbn (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def Wlk777 (blue, Rampart, Kirre, Kirre) 2SM4d(3) 1-2-6

I confirm both games. In both, there was a severe shortage of resources for normal development (it's a pity that there were many good things, like provisions for 3-4 turns and a Portal of Glory for 20+ units, but there was simply nothing to build and buy troops with). Even with those resources, the analysis showed that it was unlikely to win, at best, I could put up a little resistance. The opponent developed too well. In the first case, 2 outposts with Gorgons allowed him to have 36 Black Dragons by the 3rd week, and 50 by the 4th. With Tazar in command and the rest of his forces, it was practically an unbeatable combination. In the second case, the opponent was hitting with 70 Black Dragons by the 2nd week, and that requires significant power, it's similar to Heroes of Might and Magic. Thank you for the games.

Oelm (blue, Conflux, random, Ignissa, Shiva/Grindan) def Sem-56 (red, Tower, Neela, Neela), 2SM4d (3), 1-4-6

I do not confirm the report, due to Oelm's save and his 3 turns with the computer as a pair!!!
After talking with the respected vbn, I came to the conclusion that my judgment is important and that the opponent acted exactly like that and not otherwise!!!
I am by no means accusing Pasha of cheating, but of an incorrect attitude towards me, which simply turned into disrespect!!

P.S. One thing is to lie, and another is to try to make a fool of your opponent. I will not tolerate that, plus, all of the above, disrespect from Oelm!!!

You know how complex the process of proving cheating, fraud, and other similar issues is in online games. It is impossible to prove anything based solely on suspicions. Therefore, one should still be more tolerant. In any case, it will not be possible to prove anything, and we will never know the truth. But the principle of presumption of innocence comes first! Further discussion of the issue is closed.

I really don't understand how you can play for 3 days and not notice this? :confused:
And if it's intentional, I don't understand even more. :confused:

I'm surprised, why not discuss this problem with the host in ICQ first? :confused: It's like you're playing for the first time!

Monstro_aka_h3 (Blue, Conflux, Monere) def SpiriTT (Red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti), 2sm4d(3), 1.3.6.
I got lucky with a very favorable respawn, instantly had Monere and Geler (+350) in the tavern, a large respawn with clusters of goodies, Butterfly, Air, and Earth dwellings in week 1, + Birds appeared, + a Bird dwelling in week 3, 2 Naga Banks nearby, 2 Griffin Conservatories, and a Dragon Utopia. My opponent also had a decent setup with Scorpicore and Minotaur dwellings.
In week 3, the opponent rushed in with 22 Minotaur Kings, 19 Manticores, 2 Angels, 180 Troglodytes + fodder. First turn, mass Haste and the advantage in unit count played their part.
Thanks for the game.

Monstro_aka_h3 (Blue, Conflux, Moner) def SpiriTT (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti), 2sm4d(3), 1.3.6.

Yes, that's how it went. The Miner with 3 stacks, while hiding Manticores and Minotaurs, also conserved. He didn't even think about the rest. I didn't know that the Conflux had half the map under its respawn area, with 2 native heroes in the tavern – a merchant and Moner, a forest nearby, and hiding spots for levels 1, 2, 5, and 7! And all of it is close together, with the Griffin hiding spot right on the road! Plus, there's a lot of money in the future, 2 conservatories, and another one a little further away. Well, and my "chocolate" respawn area turned out to be small and narrow, with the passage from it to the Treasury blocked by mountains, and secondary units blocking the sniper on the off-road path into the swamp and 4 guards on the snow. I managed to get through, but then the mountains closed in, and 50+ Orcs blocked the path – artillery guarded it. In short, I lost to the generator, thanks.

SEM_56 (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def Monstro_aka_h3 (blue, Rampart, Ivor, Ivor) 2sm4d(3), 137...
A good start, 150 Troglodytes from the start, saw a Minotaur dwelling. Week 1 result: 1-6 in the castle...
On the second, secondary Stronghold, Minotaur dwelling, set up a portal, have logistics and earth magic, enough economic buildings...
On the 3rd, secondary Fortress, sword +2 attack/defense. I go into the treasure zone, find the opponent's scout, he retreats, I take a Pandora's box for 10,000 experience, wanted to take a Pandora's box behind the cavalry horde, but then Ivor showed up, takes the chest and attacks me...
Attack and defense stats are higher, but Ivor has the initial attack.
So, Ivor 14 13 1 4 - 3 Archangels, 15 Unicorns, 69 Grand Elves, 1 Cavalier and Centaur...
Shakti, 12 7 4 5 - 28 upgraded Minotaurs, 230 Troglodytes, 48 Evil Eyes and a few Harpies...
Mass Haste, Bless on Troglodytes and Minotaurs, and Ivor fell!!!
Thanks for the game!!!

SEM_56 (red, Dungeon, Shakti, Shakti) def Monstro_aka_h3 (blue, Rampart, Ivor, Ivor) 2sm4d(3), 137.

Ivor is a very weak mage; he had only 1 Strength and Mana, less than 20 at the start of the battle, plus this idiot (random) kept preventing me from using Mass Slow. As a result, the elves quickly died from the Mino's that rushed in, and in the subsequent melee, the Troglodytes won (((.

Oelm (blue, Swamp, Tazar, Tazar) def Hermit (red, Tower, Neela, Neela), 2SM4d (3), 1.3.3

On turn 133, I have 41 units, 5 unrecruited, and I'm positioned near a tier 3 Utopia (with a red orb and an air magic book). There's also a nearby quest worth 20 gold. My opponent conceded in the console.

Thanks, it's a shame without Facebook integration.

P.S. Dirty, please don't play "broken telephone" here. Formally, Sam has grounds for not confirming, but I don't see a real problem. In the game, he clearly lost. I didn't observe any disrespect from him.

P.S. Dirty, please don't play the broken telephone game here. Formally, Sam has grounds to reject the claim, but in the game, he clearly lost. There was no disrespect, and I didn't notice anything like that.

What broken telephone are you talking about? SEM specifically states that you played with the computer for three days without him. Did that happen or not?

I do not confirm the report, due to Oelm's save and his 3 turns played with the computer!!!

Moderated: OFF-TOPIC in the message

Are you trying to draw conclusions based solely on Sam's words? There are private messages and ICQ for such topics, so as not to clutter things up here. :)

Dear Vladimir expressed his opinion about Necropolis, calling them scout heroes :D
And I tried with particular zeal to prove the opposite.....

OUTLAW(blue, Necropolis, Galthran, Galthran) def Vavashik(red, Castle, Orrin, Orrin), 2SM4d(3), 1-4-2
Good start at the top, fast roads, during the course from the castle there are as many as 3 ГО to choose from :D , a road to 2 teleporters, from the lookout you can see a Griffin Conservatory in the adjacent zone... I break into the first teleporter - there's snow there.. There's a 2nd Griffin Conservatory on the road. On day 113 I capture a Tower, I see gloves, Gosh on a gargoyle. I take the gloves, slowly smash the skeletons..., another Griffin Conservatory is revealed.... By the end of the week at home - horses with a citadel, a 4th Griffin Conservatory found, Gosh level 6. At the start of the second week, Gosh smashes skeletons, advancing towards the furthest Griffin Conservatory, at the home respawn a Czech with 5 horses clears crypts and resources.....
124 = 2 angels
125 - a 5th Griffin Conservatory found
126 = 2 angels
127 = 3 angels
131 = 3 angels
132 = Naga Bank (level 2)
134 - a Dragon Utopia found at the secondary respawn, artifact +2 to speed
135 = 2 angels, 2 Dwarf Cottages with 20 each
136 = I cleared artifact +2 to speed
137 - mini Dragon Utopia with full trash, at home - dragons...
141 - Gosh visits the stables and on angels just barely doesn't reach the ГО....
142 - I clear a horde of unicorns with mass haste with 12 angels, 3 dragons, almost 800 gr. skeletons, 12 gr. horses, 19 vampires, 18 gr. liches... I take an empty capital and also reach Orrin on 4 angels - mass haste again and Orrin dies.....:smile16:
Thank you for the game!!
Well, who else is against Necropolis?? :smile13:

Played with OUTLAW. Respected Vladimir expressed his opinion about Necropolis players, saying they are scout heroes.
And I tried with particular zeal to prove the opposite...

OUTLAW (blue, Necropolis, Galthran, Galthran) def Vavashik (red, Castle, Orrin, Orrin), 2SM4d(3), 1-4-2
Good start at the top, roads are fast; along the path from the Castle, as many as 3 GO are scattered to choose from; the road has 2 teleports; from the vantage point, a Griffin Conservatory is visible in the adjacent zone... I break through to the first teleport — there's snow there... There's a 2nd Griffin Conservatory on the road. On day 113, I paint the Tower, see the gloves, Gosh on a gargoyle. I take the gloves, slowly knock off the skeletons... Another Griffin Conservatory is revealed... By the end of the week, home Cavaliers with the Citadel; 4th Griffin Conservatory found, Gosh is level 6. At the start of the second week, Gosh knocks off skeletons, advancing toward the farthest Griffin Conservatory; at the home respawn, an alt with 5 Cavaliers clears crypts and resources...
124 = 2 Angels
125 — 5th Griffin Conservatory found
126 = 2 Angels
127 = 3 Angels...


I confirm. The Necro was strong. :cool:
But still, they are strong thanks to the advantage of the Queen anyway. Plus immense luck — a ton of conservatories. Take away the Queen and the conservatories, and they are :smile33:.
Well, basically I lost :D But I'm waiting for a rematch :smile19:.
