Dubm, those aren't memes, they're image macros.

Also, this really sucks, I liked Sandgoose, and now I have to find a new World Cup player.

In the interest of helping out, i'm available as a sitter. GR 32. Though being paired against Mad Max and Pres Eden in the last game took some of the starch out of me :)

What do you mean sitter?
I you want to take over his position... Post in the other thread I made...

Sandgoose is banned? BRING HIM BACK!
I DEMAND INJUSTICE!!

I agree this is really sad. I'll wait to here the explanation, of course, but I like Sandgoose and his departure is very regrettable.

Yeah, I'll miss Sandgoose too.

So, if he cheated in some form, and presumably covered it up well (seeing as he got banned while on vacation), does that mean his final Diplomacy stab was on WebDiplomacy itself?

Is this going to cause his fiancee to change her mind? Will she return the frozen peas to Aisle 4B?

Sometimes it makes me sad, though... (S)Andy being gone. I have to remind myself that some birds aren't meant to be caged. Their feathers are just too bright. And when they fly away, the part of you that knows it was a sin to lock them up DOES rejoice. But still, the place you live in is that much more drab and empty that they're gone. I guess I just miss my friend.

I handed out so many +1s

Ghug, that World Cup replacement player needs to come from his team, all of whom should be notified and given time to work something out. OR we could agree to start that game over with newly randomized country assignments.

Now I have another one of these stupid games with the perma-envelope. Can webdiplomacy not adopt the already programmed solution to this please???

Ok, as promised, we have discussed this case, and here's what we have to say about Sandgoose:

Sandgoose had multiaccounted before and we had discussed this at length with him. We told him that he can stay under specific circumstances and he has skirted many of those over time. Multiple mods/admins have dealt with him and have warned him concerning a variety of issues/infractions. Recently he has metagamed with a family member, NKCell, which is the straw that broke the camel's back. The case was reviewed by multiple mods, and we agreed that this was the appropriate course of action.

@Mujus, I'm his captain, we're currently looking into finding a replacement.

Sounds like a fair verdict to me, though he will be missed

sounds very reasonable zultar and thank you for sharing the truth about what happened.

and everyone look at how many +1's dumbell has got on this thread, that how it's done folks ;)

*dubmdell*

First they came for Sandgoose, and I did not speak because I am not a goose and do not like sand, then they came for NKCell and I did not speak because .... oh jeez, fark 'em, just kick 'em the hell out of here

Oh man! No more poptarts... :-(

Ghug, you're the captain? Cool. But a replacement at this point has the potential to kick those game dynamics all to pieces. Of course, I'm not one of the big two, so I guess I'm probably biased.

Huh, what should we do then?

So strange when a respected member of the community reveals his inner scumbag.

>respected

Yeah, find a replacement and let's finish this game up.

I posted a userID in the world cup thread, he just needs the game info.

His name was Sandgoose. Think of him when you look to the night sky.

I understand. In death, a member of WebDiplomacy has a name. His name is Sandgoose.

His name was Sandgoose. Think of him when you consider cheating.

Let's all name a multi after him
