Sanya, you're awesome if you're not cheating! ))):D

YES, that's really funny, I barely managed to hold back from laughing out loud, but my wife is sleeping, so I managed to control my emotions. Very cool joke, really! )

I don't even want to quote it. The person simply ignores the FACT and says that it doesn't bother him much. Very feminine.

The most important thing in all of this is that you are the most masculine in all respects, and I have great respect for you!)

I also like this collage. After all, I happen to have Twaryna's hairstyle. )))
Figuratively and symbolically - Merlin is holding Twaryna by the throat so that only the top of her head is sticking out...:smile20:

I like this collage too. After all, I have the hairstyle of the Creature in my hand. )))

Self-promotion, just imagine a woman:D

In my opinion, player Gomunguls plays as follows:

...
2. Often makes illogical decisions when searching for beneficial items in the dark.

How do such assumptions align with the fact that Gomunguls regularly chooses scouting as his primary strategy?

Just, PredS, set yourself...

the synergistic effect of the burned chairs played its role here....
P.S. he is innocent.

What Kostya said, everyone can find.

I'm a dad from the chat, don't understand a thing about cheating in Heroes, and only a little in Heroes itself... but I'm susceptible to logic, and more to tactics than strategy, so... what I saw: Vitaliy (Gomogulus) makes excellent use of the resource of drawn cards, absolutely devours everything, calculating down to the millimeter. For this, he receives universal respect, and sometimes even more. I go onto Amil's (Mikhail's) stream, and they're discussing this topic; I listen with half an ear... a day or two passes, then I see a stream of Hella with Gom... I go in and ask what the attack on Vitaliy is about, and they tell me in detail. And at that moment, Vitaliy (Gomonguls) is playing Jebus Cross with Hell; I won't say I'm an expert on Gomonguls's play, but he went to break through the General's Guard and lost 6 ducks, then broke through the Dragon Utopia guard, saw Wizards, returned, and went for the prison where he died to nagas... honestly speaking... I'm not a fan of Vitaliy, I haven't watched his streams. His actions frankly surprised me.

Regarding the subject: Imho, the serious accusations made, maybe I'm being a smartass and everyone has long understood everything, but an analysis needs to be done: request saves, for example, test the maps, draws, etc... I'm a dad from the chat, but when Hell (whom I root for) doesn't get a good draw on Jebus Cross 8 times in a row, you start blaming not the water, but everything in sight!

but he tried to break through ГО and lost 6 ducks, then broke the Dragon Utopia guard, saw the Wizard, went back and tried to take the prison where he got wiped by nagas

His actions frankly surprised me.

and the fact that his actions surprised you is normal, considering the difference in your skill levels.

Maybe I didn't explain it well: Vitaly always plays very clearly and rationally, and when you see actions like this, it's surprising.

but we need to analyze this: request save files, for example, and test maps.

So, it's up to you now; I don’t think any players will mind. And then some heated discussions will start :-) /topic/7211/

It's time to start banning people for spreading such misinformation!

FYI (it's time to implement something similar on the forum):

Article 128.1. Defamation
1. Defamation, that is, the dissemination of knowingly false information that damages the honor and dignity of another person or undermines their reputation.

FYI for the Admins (it's time to implement something similar on the forum):

Actually, we are already discussing this issue. Such "baiting" should definitely not go unpunished.

I'll add my two cents.

Let's start with the main point: I have a purely neutral attitude towards Gomunguls – we didn't play together, we didn't communicate much, we didn't clash in forum arguments, and he didn't sign up for my Tournaments. Just to nip any possible speculation in the bud.

Based on several indirect clues from reports/streams/statistics, I've had a nagging feeling about him for a long time – something just doesn't add up. There's a dissonance between his gameplay, results, and the way he expresses his thoughts.

Back in the day, when I was actively hunting for maphackers, this feeling helped me save a lot of time searching and analyzing save files.

Of course, it didn't always work; sometimes it gave false alarms when a player was genuinely playing illogically (in my opinion) but was just on a lucky streak.

For example, around 2010, I reviewed a series of games from FireToSky, and he quickly started showing a level of skill that was unusual for a beginner. I looked into it, and there were enough strangely lucky moves, but I couldn't find any concrete evidence. Then I watched his game at the CIS-2011 tournament, and I realized that he really does play like that – he can quickly build up a strong base with a red rush, leave a large army near the opponent's outpost within their line of sight, etc.

But I was also right quite often, so when I had this feeling, I would ask the player's opponents for save files and review them, sometimes briefly, sometimes in detail. And many times, players themselves came to me asking to review their opponents' save files. Interestingly, it was usually the opponents that I had previously gathered information on. Apparently, I'm not the only one with this intuition.

That's what I'm getting at – if there are any suspicions, you shouldn't immediately start stirring up trouble about morality and ethics, or starting pointless arguments. You need to ask players (preferably privately), study save files, not with the goal of finding compromising evidence (that actually hinders the process), but with the goal of studying the player, understanding their thought process. And based on that, you can judge whether there's anything there or not.

But you shouldn't dismiss it, hiding behind the presumption of innocence. At the moment, it dampens this issue so much that only very stupid cheaters can get caught. A skilled player can cheat without being obvious, because over the years of discussing these issues, the arguments for accusations and the methods for finding maphackers have become too well known, and they can easily be avoided.

Because if you dismiss it and punish the accuser, it will only lead to those who thought the same way but didn't have any arguments silently ignoring the suspect. That's not what we want.

But accusing without proof is also not a good idea. Should we all start calling each other cheaters now? Normal people do this:
