First off I did not accuse that kid of being an outright cheater.
Second I reported that his actions almost, and I say ALMOST made him one, whether it was on purpose or not, he changed the the comp setting we had in game 1 to friendly for the rematch when he was going to be stuck in the castle with only 4 units as I was. This was something he did consciously when he set up for the second match.
I acknowledge that this (the game not being reported, and saying that it is still being played though it was over with like 2 hours ago!) may be a server quirk, but it alarmed all of us who were playing because I was not the only one he had played with tonight that this happened to, PLUS he QUIT a battle that he was ABOUT to lose against another person that was there. The one he lost to right after playing me, said that those mysterious things happened with that player as well.
For the Record - I am not accusing that person of intentionally cheating, but we (the people who were online at that time) thought he was a rather fishy character. He said he didn't know where the player ladder was, what rankings were, and said he was basically ignorant of all these things. He then said he was only 13. This "kid" has played an awful lot, and has won most of his matches.
We dealt with it there and figured we'd wait it out and see what would happen later. I don't really care about the matter of battle wins and ladder Honor, but I do care about people trying to pull a fast one on the other honest players.
Even after the fact, We were all very polite to him, and we even told him how to look everything up and and how to do a bunch of other useful stuff so he'd have his bearings.

First off, You should Know that I have been playing online battles since the game came out. I've played well over 400 games, friendly and Competitive.
Recording or not, it's a mess if the server's jacked up like that. People are supposedly still having a big problem with their Comp games not getting recorded.
60,000 Koku, that was the "kid's" choice so that all of the units would have 9 honor and so that they'd fight to the last man. It CAN make Castle sieges a lot of fun, but in this case, it's overkill because the castle is too small. Castle 4A only allows for 4 defenders.
I used the name here to call attention to the BATTLE RECORD and to alert you all to the situation as it pertains to said parties involved. I also wanted to know if this person was someone we knew, and if anyone could speak on his behalf about his character and demeanor.
If I am going to say something about what you did, or might have done, and expect you to respond or have people look into something and know what they're looking for then it is necessary to give out that detail so that people can find it. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gif
I am not accusing this person of outright cheating, go and read the post again if you need to clarify that.
I would go back and edit my message to make this more clear, because I was a tad "yanked" about the whole deal, which has happened before to me and many others by other map "specialists". If people wanna play competitive and get honor by rigging the situations so that they have things heavily in their favor, then they either need to give a rematch (which this kid did in a roundabout way) and let the sides be switched so they get a dose of their medicine - or not play the game that way in comp. Half the comp games I've lost in the life of this game online were to jerks who wanted to defend the most defensible map and had the ammo set to unlimited and koku at 10,000 or higher. Then when they've usually BARELY won, they run away with my honor points and then they DO NOT give a rematch with the sides switched.
So now the only safe thing to do is NOT play comp games with these types of losers. Make them go friendly and not care about the scores, or just don't play with new people. Haha!
Erado-san, we all know that you cheat. You set up your army and then leave the game. Then the army ('s) that attack you run away in fear that you might actually be there and you JUST might make them attack back at them.

Sorry I brought all this up, but all this "fishy" stuff is getting on my nerves. There's just too many players online who are just trying to make a name for themselves by doing underhanded stunts, playing on terms that are not reasonable, or they use "rush" armies that win the day 9 times out of ten on certain maps with certain weather conditions.
Sorry if that other post bent the rules, I didn't try to over do it and made sure to word it so that it wouldn't be taken that way. It was suppossed to be a more open context than what it was read as.
I Offer My Humble Apologies,
