Stop Cheating by Disconnecting ! - Stop Cheating by Disconnecting !

[shinvector]

I blive this problem has been faced before in game like Starcraft.. When some one is about to lose they disconnect from the match to avoid a loss on prupose.

The creator of this game. Could add another record in the game. So we can keep track of these type of lame cheaters ? By adding the record "Number of time diconnected" Sure some people disconnect due to server or net or modem probs.

However, when some has a record like (wins\Losses\Disconnects) 100\5\120

We would know what he heck he has been doing. And possbily have his account deleted for doing it.

Thanks

dear n00b,

If the other player disconnects before the game is over, he will automatically get that loss, no matter what, and you will get the win. Its kinda like a win by forfeit.

yup, i believe 1 round has to be completed for this to take effect.

How sure are you of this mr boogie ?

So far I seen the game react very diffrently... From disconnects.. I do not get the message.. "Out of sync you in in XX sec.." all the time..

Instead i can get stuff like "player left" or the game just hangs there for a long..

what do you have to say about that !?

If it says "player left" that means he automatically forfeits.. thus you won. I'm pretty #### sure of it.

B0oGiE 100% right :)

but you DO have to wait till you get to the "countdown" screen to make sure your winning score is submited :)

If your at the countdown screen, can you leave the countdown screen by hitting the menu button and still get the win or do you have to wait for the whole thing to count down? I mean like when they leave, and you have to wait.

i believe that in a previous post somewhere tmy suggested that you waited until the coutdown was over JUST in case!!!

Hmmm... But the game has been runnning pretty weir dfor me.. the music is screwed.. how some reason.. maybe i need to reload the thing...

But still sometimes for me the game just hangs there...

Talking about this...

One time.. That "win in XX secs" thing came out...

The counter went all the way to zero.. !
I was gonna exit then suddenly the guy came back and the game started again.. I did win though.. Did i win twice ?

I am telling you that part of the game is buggy due to net lag...

But they should add that disconnect counter..

[ewalk]

i dont think you won twice.
