Since it will come out anyway. A friend of mine created a country and sold 21$ oil a few sets. This was not every set and I will clarify later reasons behind this. As soon as a big stink was made about that being cheating I asked them to stop...which they did far as I know. I still put in my standing orders for cheap stuff but it is not coming from anyone I know.

Wouldn't you hate it if I said I was bluffing in that other thread?

No zarcon I would not. I would rather it come from me than some mod/admin not discuss with me first. You want to delete some prior round results please hear me out first then decide. I just saw tellarians post figured it was directed at me and didn't want last round gone as it was completely legit no friend assist etc.

Not easy to make the deletions from my phone, as why they aren't deleted. I assume you are happy me discussing this on this forum then?

So I read between lines properly.... For you Ebert...

Enjoy :-)

if you do go back and delete results, for whatever reason, will the past finishes page and profiles be updated to show any changes in, lets say, total top ten finishes?

Cheating dog! Notice how he was silent all along? Now his a$$ is about to be gone, whine whine whine!

CX, you are next up. Better believe it.

So far, despite all the speculation, CX has come up clean :P

i very well may end up being horribly wrong, but i do firmly believe cx is perfectly legit. his advice improved my finishes considerably, i have no doubt from that that how he plays is simply why he does so well.

again, i very well may end up being horribly wrong :P

lol "my friend" and then "them".

Christ.

Well the suspicious one was this one: http://www.earthempires.com/express/208/ranks
Someone did a tech buyout that set, purchasing his $9300 tech, which transferred him the funds he needed to reach 30m with his all explore... This was the set immediately after he made a thread asking if 30m was possible with all explore so it seemed quite convenient. And then he initially denied to some people that it was his tech that sold at $9300, making him appear quite guilty when he finally had to admit that in fact it was his. He also suddenly made his profile private after that set. If he does turn out to be innocent after all the speculation (including from me!) he'll be owed some apologies. Although I still think selling/buying $9k tech is fluffed up regardless.

Actually blid, I never stated that it was not my tech to anyone. That's a common misconception.

of that i can not argue- the same way it caps it for how low you can sell, in the last hour of the game it should cap it for how high you can sell. but that might be a little unreasonable to ask, an open market is indeed an open market, so.. (but it would sure be nice not to lose out top ten spots to those who do sell for insane prices, regardless of who it is that buys it)

i certainly hope they're all legit, i enjoy watching him play when i know which he is, to follow the progression.

PM I received:

Btw, combing through old sets is exactly what I PM'd tellarion about wanting when he first became mod. I'm thrilled that Zarcon is doing it. If it turns out CX was innocent all along, and people like me were wrong, it's of course still a great thing that he can have his name cleared out of the cloud of suspicion he's been under

I agree with blid on that

my question is another one. And i am not blaming CX or anyone else ...

But how the hell would anyone detect cheating if you are from burkina faso and you ask your japan friend to buy your expensive goods. That`s why i think i don`t own anyone i`ve accused an apology for the accuse.

Blid, I already looked into that one with qz. It was mrford...

Even the one way back then? Man wth mrford's been doing it for awhile buying CX's tech. If it wasn't coordinated then I have no idea why CX was behaving so suspiciously, he sent me a PM asking what I thought about the "witch hunt" focusing on him, I said I didn't think it was his tech, he replied and didn't correct me, then I said qzjul could look it up, and then he was all like omg really? and THEN he fessed up. It was sooo sketchy. Ah well, w/e.

Which one are you referring to? There was a set about 5-6 back when I first found ford doing it and cx won that set.

If you think we missed something, then poor me to the appropriate set and we can check.

I'm talking about the set I linked, CX didn't win. Was like 3 months ago. http://www.earthempires.com/express/208/ranks
Zarcon might be looking at it already.

Or you could pm him that info with your suspicions. He looked into $21 oil because it had been brought up multiple times, and found some links with ebert. He happened to notice the thread. I had qz look into a different case of $21 oil more recently and we found nothing.

As I keep repeating all over the place, if you have info, especially about old sets, pm me or now zarcon with the details. Don't just fluff and hope we stumble upon it...

Oh, I thought that was the one I was thinking about...I need to check which one I had qz look at...blah :/

Thanks tella. Great job! Can someone let me know which countries were deleted? Lemme go look at them and smile.

Lol, that's too funny hahaha

i like when guys like ebert comes on here and say "a friend" does this.. and he just happens to put his SO out there when that happens. coordination dude.
