As was the case with KOTH rule enforcement is critical!
As silly as it sounds in todays world and an online environment there will be no way you can guarantee the rules will be followed as honor and integrity isn’t at a level it used to be and would need to be in this event.

It's 1v1s. Both players film the entire sortie and submit film. There's not any other rules to enforce, especially if air spawns are used in Matchplay or a custom arena.

I can get where some people might think this is hard, simply recording every sortie.

How do you guarantee your fighting the person you think you are?
Or if it’s just them or who know that’s chiming in.
Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

I have three seperate responses to that:

1) logging into someone else's account is a violation of use policy, I believe, so we could always ask Hitech to confirm

2) personally, I'm not sure why I would care if someone else is logging in to my opponent's account. If I get beat, I get beat. Who cares what their name is or isn't? It seems to me this is just an arbitrary worry of ego.

3) nrshida is a liar to the previous accusations and I'm willing to even pull Hitech in to confirm it. What nrshida witnessed was too much for his imagination to handle, so he assumed foul play must have occurred.

I never said I didn't see an issue; I said I personally wouldn't be worried about who I was fighting, regardless of the name they used. If I were to fly in such an event, I'd be much more concerned about winning than who I might lose to.

Sadly no, nrshida is an excellent amateur detective who caught Skyyr cheating. Again.

How uncharacteristically noble of you. Just snap your fingers and he'd appear to support you like a butler is it? I think you will find HiTech can think for himself.

An evidenced accusation is not by definition a lie. HiTech is welcome to discuss my findings if he wishes. I am - not for the first time - entirely at his disposal. Of course there'd be two players to ban, the one who logged into the other's account and the other for sharing log-in details to do so. Had that not occured or do you have a track record of throwing others under the bus with you? How disappointing.

Orrr... you were too stupid to realize that two players used the "Change Callsign" option in-game and swapped IDs.

Yes, that makes you both a liar and utterly unimaginative. No, you don't get to do your stupid little dance or reversal and claim "I meant that." No, you claimed I logged into someone else's account. I have NEVER done so. If you're dumb enough to press this issue, this is my open request to have Hitech to confirm the above, if he feels so inclined.

Are you emotional? You sound emotional. Dangerous to guess what I know.

You carry on your typical forum routine thinking you can spin and manipulate out of every situation YOU put yourself in. I think we'll go with the suggestion to let HiTech examine evidence.

Thats a lot of words to say "crap, I was wrong."

Please feel free to PM Hitech or call him and refer him to the post here. And I guarantee you that you don't have the balls or intestinal fortitude to post when you're proven to be wrong.

There is not enough credibility, integrity or good-will in the event organizer for me to risk partaking in such misadventure.

Let me take a wild guess. Vraciu challenged someone to a duel, so you changed your call sign to Vraciu and fought on his behalf. Yeah that sounds about right.

No one in their right mind would participate in anything you touch.

So you are saying you and Vraciu swapped IDs for the event in question?

There was no event nor did I mention names. I'm saying that the accusations which occurred are lies and two members swapped IDs using valid game mechanics (change ID) in the MA and DA during normal gameplay, to which smooth-brain types like nrshida claimed that I had logged into someone else's account.

No event, just normal day-to-day gameplay.

He said he wouldn’t be organizing.

What risk would there really be to participate? If the match play arena was used you wouldn’t even need a subscription.
