That would be my suspicion as well which is why I wanted to document my side of the story

Okay, after consultation with my moral compass shadyforce (since obviously my double move ethical compass is in the shop) lol, it was determined that the following did not violate the letter nor the spirit of the law.

T152 (last turn) - I moved first, just about when the turn rolled. Exploit moved later on in the turn. Most of my units including workers moved when I moved, and since Exploit had moved since then, and 9 hours had passed, I could use any of my units that had not moved since then (most of them were holed up in the city). On a somewhat related note, a "Rego Destroying" spy was caught at Lockland last turn.

So, I used 3 of my workers to road the desert, and then hit his stack of 7 elephants, 2 pikes and 3 cats with my stack. I made up for some crappy luck earlier with outstanding luck here!

Cat loses to Elephant @ 4.9
Cat loses to Elephant @ 4.9
Cat withdraws! vs. Elephant @ 15.1
C2Form Mace beats Elephant @ 97.6%
C2 Mace beats Elephant @ 91.1%

At this point I still had 3 maces left, but there were 2 pikes, and my best (C2) knights had only 47% odds. I checked my cats and they had 42% odds to withdraw, so I sent them in

Cat withdraws! vs. Pike @ 42.2
Cat withdraws! vs. Ele @ 71.2%

Then it was all mopup as I cleaned up the rest of the stack (the 2 pikes, 3 eles and 3 cats) @ 95+% odds, without a loss.

Total loss of 690 hammers for him vs. 100 for me.

Here's where we're at now.

I don't know why I didn't pick you as my favorite. It's been a disappointment as one by one all teams I am rooting for, are falling under your foot. sigh....

Well if all the teams that you're rooting for are falling under my foot, maybe I don't want you rooting for me alright

So who are we talking about? Imhotep? Elkad? Yaz?

I'm just hoping this game proves my spoiler thread post count -- game success corollary

In retrospect, as I mentioned in the public player thread, I admit that this type of play is not the way I want to play the game. In the future, I do intend to do my best to not take advantage of this, should my enemies provide the same sort of respect.
I don't know what exactly you mean when you say "this type of play", but I think you should agree with Exploit on a fixed turn order or on moving all your units during a single login.

Your elimination of the guardians of ZZ's ruins seems no less shady to me than your previous moves. I foresee more fury from Exploit smile

Just my two cents smile

I offered a turn order twice to him but he did not accept that.

The difference between this battle and the first one is that the first battle I moved twice before he moved (though 9 hours apart)

This time, I moved, then he moved, then I moved again

OK, sorry, I guess I haven't read the threads properly. You're in the clear then.

What about the "move all during single login" proposal? I don't understand why people wouldn't want that. But then again, I've never liked simultaneous turns.

Don't worry about that, I will not root for youlol. I have a thing for lesser skilled player, I want them to win dammit. Who know exploit might make it to my list.

Other than skill, it looks like this game favours people who logs in more number of times and spends more time in diplomacy. The way you killed imho's stack, the razed zz and now plan for Elkad. All points to one thing, Rego is ruthless and will take any advantage he gets (shady or no shady).
