Completing the four.

Mmm that was satisfying; just went though 6 months worth of cheating accusations, relationship declarations, in just 1-2 hours. People are declaring relationships, responding quickly to request for info, very nice. That is a *lot* easier than it was.

Someone might have lodged that they're suspicious of you and another player. If there's nothing in it select "Deny" from the dropdown and submit it, and maybe leave a comment refuting it in case the mods look at it.

FYI I've added country based suspicion lodging for anonymous games:

I think with a feature that lets mods force players to respond, badged/game-blocks for linked users, and convenience features for mods, it could really streamline how we deal with multi-accusations and RL relationships.

If it works out I could even see it being extended for other mod requests, but we'll see

There is a record on my profile:

"Very cosy ***country1***/***country2*** in ***game number**, but no link
Game Reference: "

It is a verified relationship.

What does it mean exactly?

Thanks, Kestas. Looks like it is in fact working now!

Just wondering where this is up to? I am in an anonymous press game where I have a mild-medium strength suspicion of metagaming/cheating. Nothing that I would bother emailing the mods with (and certainly not in global) but I would love to lodge a suspicion. More just for the experience TBH.

I haven't been able to find where to lodge this? It seems the two places to lodge a suspicion have disappeared. Thanks to anyone who can help.
Thanks for the patience; we've reactivated this feature, hopefully now working fine and looking a bit nicer also. The "Lodge Cheating Suspicion" link will no longer take you to the mod contact page but instead open up the suspicion submission form. Any issues let us know, and thanks for lodging even low level suspicions; the more data we have the better

It's not yet finished.

I tried using this feature to disclose that I knew userID=19589 in school, but got this error:
Error triggered: Unknown column 'gameId' in 'field list'.
I was just trying to test the feature (the relationship is more than a decade old and I have lost touch with this person).

So, if you play against someone in non-anonimous and then a new game starts, and you know they are trustworthy, and work with them the second time? That is bad? Maybe all games should be anonimous then.
No, the rules are clear on this: You can't enter a games with a pre-determined intent to ally or attack another player. You also can't play public games with acquintances.
Working with someone again is fine and normal.

Most games should indeed be anonimous.

Those bots cheat all the time. I knew it.
Yah, do report them. We need to get them banned.

My question concerns those Bloomin' BlighterDalekBots.
I note that there is now an easy to use "report your suspicions of cheating/metagaming etc" function for games against the Bloomin' BlighterDalekBots.
Should I infer that it is possible there are some Wicked BlighterDalekBots suspected of cheating & the Almighty Mods need help to catch them at it?
I have been the victim of some asinine attacks by BlighterDalekBots when we are both being attacked by another fiendish BlighterDalekBot and these asinine BlighterDalekBots don't defend against the BlighterDalekBot attacking both of us, but keep attacking me and allowing the other one an easy run at their home scs, rnd result we both get defeated, and the obvious play is to stop attacking me and join me in attacking the common enemy and greater threat.
I have had my suspicions about the BlighterDalekBots ganging up on the lone human player when clearly they are meant to squabble with each other and let the human player pick them off one at a time.

Sure, but the same feedback provided 5 times isn't all that productive :)

Re: User relationship management

by Jaguar » Mon Jun 06, 2022 1:47 pm

I'm totally zen, just providing feedback as requested by OP: "Note the idea is that eventually all cheating accusations will require submitting via this system, so it is worth giving feedback while it's still fairly open to change."

Re: User relationship management

It's clearly and obviously a feature in progress that was accidentally added to production. Chill out, it'll get fixed soon.

Re: User relationship management

I also have this issue - it's quite annoying so grateful if it can be migrated to another page rather than appearing in-game.

Or alternatively, as C0nd0r has suggested, could it be at least moved to the bottom of the page (below the summaries of SCs/units/points etc.).

Also, why is it only available to accuse oneself? I tried doing so and had errors like poyo245 did.

Re: User relationship management

by C0nd0r » Mon Jun 06, 2022 1:05 am

Yes, same although I can only lodge suspicions for myself. There is no option to accuse others.

A design suggestion: having it at the bottom of the page so I don't have to keep scrolling past it until the 15th.

Re: User relationship management

by poyo245 » Mon Jun 06, 2022 12:42 am

I have the same issue, and in my press game there is a large box at the bottom to lodge cheating suspicions that just errors if I try to submit.

Re: User relationship management

by Doug7878 » Sun Jun 05, 2022 11:29 pm

I am playing in one anon game. There is a large message on the game screen asking about my suspicion that I am cheating in the game. If I try to respond, I get an error message. Is this normal ?
