Ehm wait what? We need some transparency here....
ROFL 说:
After spending the entire night looking into the evidence presented, talking with some of the best duelists in the game and with players who actually understand how Mount&Blade: Warband functions are working, as well as downloading and testing some autoblocks myself, I firmly came into the conclusion that DarkLight is clearly clean from any cheating and innocent of any accusation that has been presented against him.
Gonna need more than that. Considering the people who were involved in this decision are mostly friends of his, or people who didnt accuse him... Gonna name a few people (not everyone, some didnt want their names mentioned) who still believe hes cheating. Sponge, Raven, Fisk, Grey Warden, Oodle, Guacc, Sho, Zazu,Maximou, Bruce, Volschen.
Why were the ones who were accusing him not involved in the "decision making" at all? Instead of collecting a bunch of people who are more likely to agree with you, why not give them a chance to argue for and against...? Hell why wasnt sponge asked...? And are you saying the players I mentioned above dont know the mechanics? A few duelers tried to replicate this amazing new style of dueling and failed, the reason they gave was
Raven 说:
Basically I would have to perfectly predict when my opponent would switch from one attack into another and quickly block down during that switch
And trust me
That costs SO MUCH CONCENTRATION
And even then I cant do it anywhere close to perfect
Especially if someone holds
And then suddenly switches
With a long block inbetween or something
I could not get to time it THAT perfectly
Not consistently anyways
Basically unless Darklight controlls time and space he cant predict the feints and attacks flawlessly, at some point he would **** up and die. Unless hes an anime character.
So some autoblocks were tested, but Sponge found the one that Darklight most likely used, however this one wasnt checked? How come?
(Saw logs of this, including download link sent to the admin team, with no response)
The best way to solve this is to have them re duel, and Darklight records it from his perspective. Even better, use Nohboard so it tracks what buttons he clicks aswell. So far I havnt seen any evidence that hes not cheating, the accusers have shown proof, the defense hasnt. Sorry but your word isnt enough.
PS: Posted this on behalf of a few others, players who know infantry way better than I do, I volunteered.
Tbh it was mentioned earlier he has been autoblocking on ludus before and was only warned for it....sorta weak that he hasnt been banned really...why are we giving cheaters a free ride now just because theyre known players, when any random player wouldve been perma banned without hesitation.
