    When I went to sleep at 2 am Pacific, he was at 367. When I woke up at 7 am, he was over 1200. Even shield-hopping off of GIPSY_DANGER, Electro, and THEKID, that is just not possible. He would need to leave time between shields to avoid the attacks worth -35 to -50 points.

    And I'm suppose to believe THEKID's current 1139 score is legitimate too? icon_rolleyes.gif

    The only legit way I can think off is that they retreat off each other, but that wouldn't get them so high.

    I have Slobo in my bracket this time around. She is at 919 and shielded now. Not TOO weird to see. I've seen 800+ at this point in an event. But second is just above 700. But I am curious how these people have over 1100 already. It's just ridiculous.

    This has been my theory all along. Multiple alternate accounts, then everyone coordinates to focus on boosting one or two members.

    How well would that work though? If they are using alternate accounts, they would need to get those accounts to a decent amount of points for the loss to make any difference. Right? Or am I understanding this wrong?

    I think he just means players. 100players in an alliance to choose from.

    Let's say it's coordinated what time someone will be unshielded. A person retreats to them, requeues, and retreats again. Let's say they get in 3 battles for 12, 10, and 8 points. Have 10 members do that, and that's a 300 point boost. Then each member only needs to win one extra battle to regain the 30 points they lost.

    You can't boost an entire alliance this way, but you can get a handful of individual scores up this way.

    Thanks, noob, much appreciated! Sorry for hitting you in the first place though. You propelled me to the token! Gracias.

    Edit: the second token also produced a 2* cover. Oh well. I'm pushing further out of curiosity before getting swarmed. Found Flo98 in my queue. Delicious 1400 score :>

    I relalized that i tanked a little too hard and easily pushed to 900. The only ppl i saw in my queue that were over lvl 85 were flo and gypsy_danger... And both were above 1400

    I hit Flo98 with gusto and shielded to find two-three good targets at 1023 points, but there are none, and I keep cycling through the same opponents. Where are you, Flo, I need you ;-(

    Hit me while I'm shielded. I see only two targets with good enough points, bonfire and Drucifer. Wish they would say if they already got 1100 and are safe to attack or not.

    I'm doing my push either now or in 12hrs time. Not that I care, so if the zombies start eating me, I'll probably call it a day.

    Apparently your still a mod Emeryt I cannot add you to the foe list. Sighs.

    Looking at my top 10...

    9 guys from 867 down to 668, with Flo98 in the 1 spot at 1447.


    The various X-Men alliances are nearly the only alliances in the top 10 with members above 1000 and you've got those two jokers Flo and GIPSY_DANGER leading the pack at 1447 and 1466, respectively.

    By comparison, Slobofix's OCD **** is "only" at about 950.


    Possibly legit, but definitely fishy enough that it warrants an investigation by the devs.

    He's been static on 1292 for a while now but there was a hop up from 1190 while I was in a match.

    He hopped up 100 points while you were in 1 match? Must be all those defensive wins off attacks from 5dv members that haven't even joined the tourney yet.

    Alright, the gig's up. I admit I retreated to him 100 times in that span of 2 minutes for +1 each time since my score is 0.

    You're all just jealous because you don't have the vast X-Men library of MPQ Addons, fully supported by the hackers underground. Naz top 2 recommended are Free HP and Kill Instantly
