What's the point of epoch 3 when it's easy to glitch wins?

By on December 7, 2009 5:21:30 PM from Demigod Forums Demigod Forums

This past week or two I've noticed numerous losses/incompletes in my games list even though my team won and there was no invalid gamestate. 
The most recent a couple hours ago here: http://pantheon.demigodthegame.com/game/1133996/player/56980/

It seems that all you have to do for a 100% win ratio (Hi eliminatordemigod) is host the game and frequently alt-tab until everyone kicks you out of the game.  Then when you come in 1s later the server will think everyone else dced and give you the win and everyone else the loss because you are the host.

Seems kind of pointless to even track stats if they are so easily fixed.

I blame people who care WAY too much about their records.

If you lose you lose. Why would you care enough about some number on the interwebs to cheat other people?

I hate people.

Still, if you have a system that counts your losses/wins etc it should be working or there is no point of having it.

That is true, but actually these problems exist as long as there are people to try to cheat. This is the same as in other places where people compete against each other. Everywhere some people try to cheat. This is the same as doping in sport, or students that take Ritalin to improve their grades, or ... There are always people who do not like a fair competition but prefer to win at all costs.

pissanusak did this to us today, as soon as it was apparent they were losing, he glitched the game and took the win.

 

What he does is quit games until he is the host.... then glitches out if he loses..

I like this game.. but this crap is starting to piss me off....
