Maybe when they say "hard work" they are just abusing game mechanics and don't consider it cheating. They could just constantly be attacking each other only while coordinating shields. While not using any external hacks, I'd still call that cheating. It's like when people boost in console multiplayer games.

I don't consider coordinating shields cheating, as most alliances do that and alliance members wind up in your nodes by chance all the time. The problem I have is that even coordinating shields, what is happening is just not possible without more. Here are a few reasons, and I would love for some of the X-Men who are posting to try to explain why I'm wrong.

First, coordinating with other members who are at the same score as you gains you approximately 25 points. Yet we saw Flo98 rising by 70-100 points every hour earlier today. So that means Flo98 was hitting at least three opponents each hour. Who were those opponents, when there were virtually no other players at such high levels? Any other player will tell you that when you get to those high levels, you have to skip through dozens of 3- to 5-pt matches to find the ones of value. Once you pass 1400, particularly that early in the event, when very few people were across 1100, 90% of matches would have been worth 1-pt due to the MMR bug. I'm at 1527 and most of my matches are against seed teams.

Second, even assuming Flo98 was beating three opponents worth that many points between shields, how was he doing it without being hit by other players? Even with Sentry/Daken, at point levels so far above the pack, he would have been attracting numerous attacks. I just did two very quick matches, using full boosts -- two colors and +3 AP -- and I got hit during my second match, because I'm too tempting a target Yet, Flo98's points never dropped once during his climb to 2000. Neither did GIPSY's or Electro's. They just constantly went up. And even if they fought a match, shielded, and then fought another match, not everyone attacks immediately on finding a high-point opponent in a node. They would have received attacks over the next 20-30 minutes after shielding, so any rational player would sit shielded until attacks stop (and even then there is no guarantee that an attack wouldn't coincidentally time with the moment they broke shield again). So the odds of them rising so high, so quickly and so consistently, strongly suggests that they were using something that minimized the time they were unshielded.

So I would like for Mikey or thefated1 or one of the other apologists to explain how they think Flo98, GIPSY, and Electro. achieved a score today that previously had only been achieved once -- and that was during the event with the kyip glitch. Not to mention, don't they find their rosters the least bit suspicious? E.g., Flo98 only has 11 characters, they both seem to have skipped the 2* phase (though GIPSY at least has a max OBW), and GIPSY has a 189 Fury (which means he spent at least 20000 HP on Fury covers alone).
