Dear All,
This is the real Wombat here. I realise that there has been a lot of discussion regarding the game Ng Wang Ho, which people have aparently been accusing of multi accounting or meta gaming etc.
Allow me to explain the situation. When the game started, Russia was quickly eliminated. Italy soon followed and then two main camps formed:
France and England; Turkey, Austria and Germany.
The moves throughout the game were admittedly very suspicious, with Turkey moving to Finland just to support Germnay, etc, but I suppose the strategy was based on a potential WW1 team strategy and also something with which to help thwart Salmaneser as France, who was then at 9 units and about to break through...
What happened next is that I had to go away for 'World individuals 2008, Germany' which is an international competition, and I could not afford to move during the duration of the competition. Knowing this is advance, I asked 3 of my friends to help me check my account occasionally to ensure that I did not miss turns or go CD, which is unfair to the other players of the game.
I chose multiple people to make sure that if one or two of them were busy, someone would aqlways be able to make my moves.
Unfortunately, although thingws have gone basically smoothly in other games, 'NG WANG HO' has a conflict of interest between Germany and Turkey, who both had acess to my account as a result of the above.
What then followed I had no control over, but I would like to apologise for the mess and the suspicion that has arisen over the game, and I would request Kestas if possible to simply redistribute the points out in to all the original players, and if not to simply draw it.
To avoid this kind of confusion again, I will not play in any games with my friends, except in private games.
Thank you and my apologies again.
Wombat [the real one]
