Who is vegarilo from trees clan

[Marcel71]

Can anybody tell me who is vegarilo from trees clan.

I played him three times.

I was three times hark. Knife Fight 10k

First time he is Hark, he goes for direct rush with buzz and aa.

I killed his units i win.

Second he is Ordos. He directly rushes my base, with scouts and gas troopers, i am gone :(

Third he is Atreides. He rushes me with little wagons (forgot their name), pulls back, makes mino's and sards, i am out :(

Anybody knows who he is.

Darn irritating the direct rush :(

But i played fair and did not quit within three minutes. Let that be for the record ;)

What's his IP address in that game? I can check most IP's, unless its AOL, and see if he posts here.

[SurlyPIG]

166.234.6X.XXX in the game.

Which, as you know, is XXX.6X.234.166 in reality. Doesn't give you a lot to go on...

[zamboe]

Gob, some ppl might want to keep their nicks in secret, so i dont think is a good idea to track their ip's.

[DjCiD]

now why would they want to do that O0

[Gobalopper]

Found out who... I'll give them a day or so to reply themselves... :)

And the IP's have always been tracked on the forum, I don't know of any forum that doesn't store IP address'.

[DjCiD]

oh Gob knows a secret ;D I wonder who it is... can we have a contest? ;D who ever wins gets a custom avatar for the lovley price of just $1000 Canadian dollars ;D

[sardcore]

what the f--k?

a gobbadooper investigation... "I'll give him a couple days to show himself" so i make a nick and make a clan, beat him 2 outta 3, and all the sudden imma damn criminal? I didnt do nuthin wrong, and now this admin is gonna blow my cover? not that its a big deal. If I was makin a run for number 1, i woulda started playing a lot earlier and would play a lot more. so i log on as vega, do a couple 1 vs 1 bc when the lobby is slow, it's nice to be anonymous sometimes. if I choose to be unknown isn't that my right? And Slorpija asks and gob delivers? You got some 'splainin to do Gob.

Ya and Skorpija, ya you fought fair and didnt quit, I respect that.

But think aobu twhat you posted.

knife 10k no pre no nuthin.

1st game: endo makes bar, ref fact. I make bar fact ref. I'm spose to sit there and let you get a huge jump on teh economy? I screwed up, and made too many light inf when i shoulda made pure troopers, (among other mistakes but thats neither here nor there) but you did good and beat back my rush. you win congrats.

2nd game: endo is hark im ordos. I dont know his b.o. cause I anticipate a saw rush and so i go fact 1st. but i go fact bar ref.

And you say i rushed you? Cmon... get it straight. I build up about 15 dust, 20 gas and sat em in formation out my base cause a chem/dust rush lose to saws/lghtinf. You ran about 9 saws in front of my base and i wiped em out. By that time i had about 20 dust and i wiped out teh rest of ur saws and infantry. You attacked 1st, well not attacked, but if u sit 9 saws in front of my 15 dust imma killem; you made the fisrt move. Direct rush my ass.

3rd game: endo is hark im atr. ARE YOU TELLING ME A ATR RUSHED A HARK? Actually lemme rephrase, are you admitting that you let a atr player rush you with trikes and light infantry. so i killed off some saws while i was makin money to make sards minos and kindjal, keep the fight on ur side of the map. That's a direct rush?

Let me tell you guys sumthin. No matter when it is in the game, be it the first 1 min or the 30th min, if I think I can take you out imma attack you. I don't think im the only player with this mentality. You are a fool if you recognize an advantage and dont act on it.

O and let teh record also reflect, that after the 1st game, which endo won, I offered to play teh 2nd on his sets his map, he declined. Same offer was made after 2nd game, also declined. I play fair too.

After the 3rd game he asks my regular nick, I decline to state. I think it's my right, just like you qm's always talk about your pansy nicks to avoid ducking, I have my incognito nicks for my own reasons. If I want to blow my cover thats my decision. and here come gobalopper, "ill give thema couple days to reply" haha funny shiz, elementary school mind games. "I know who it was that wrote that dirty word on teh blackboard, and if that person comes to me after class and admits it privately, the punishment will be less harsh."

I got no beef wit endo, we've had some good games, and some not so good. But if u gonna tell a story tell it like it is, not "i got direct rushed." My concern is for the rights of the members of this forum. When someone is accused of hacking or other questionable activities, than by all means investigate. But for an admin, to threaten to reveal someone's identity, for no good reason except that someone asked, well, thats some bullshiz. Mebe my dissapointment at Gob is unfounded. I dont visit these boards much. Mebe its standard practice for admins here to give out information like that. or mebe he did pull a grade school mind game on me. ehhe i gotta take a sec out to laugh at myself if tahts indeed the case. Browsing these forums, I always got teh sense that the admins here did a good job. mebe thats why im so surprised/disapointed at gobs posts. So Gob, whats the deal? You got a reason for blowin my wad? Cause im a legit player, I dont talk shit, I dont gloat when i win and I give props when i lose. I try to help when I can, and give tips here and there when it's asked for. I'm not the best fighter on dune, but I try to keep teh game I love alive. So unless it is wrong for me to bc under a diff nick, I hope you can justify your witchhunt.

oya, and lemme take this opportunity to make a apologize to desertway, ravet123 and sagedoc. we recently played a couple games, 3 i think. me and sage won 1 and des and ravet won 2. On the last game I global chat "doc why isnt your ref upgraded at all and u not makin any units to help out." implying that its docs fault taht we lost, well that was out of line. Was a team game and we lost as a team, no 1 person's fault. Sorry to doc, I hope we can team up again, and sorry to des and ravet, I was a poor sport.

Hi Sard,

I did not say you were cheating or something, i told u in the game i would post a topic on the forums to ask if anybody knows who you are.

Off course you may have your secret account, and i am allowed to search out who you really are. Nothing wrong with that.

And at those setts you are obviously better then i. That's life sometimes. But i just wanted to know what your real nick is. And maybe if you sended an IM to Gob insteat of this long mail here, he wouldn't blow your cover.

Maybe we should have a poll. Should Gob track ip adresses?

1) if there is multinicking going on?

2) if there is proof of cheating?

3) in case of new nicks and somebody is dieing to find out?

Greetz

(btw, tnx gob ;))

[Marcel71]

o yeah, i still had to reply on that game when u were ordos.

That was funny. I did not see your base and all the dust scouts. I just saw 15/20 troopers running and thought i will drive over them :)

WHen i got close, suddenly there were like 15 dust scouts, i was schocked :O

hehe, from that point i could have quited and it would be under 3 minutes. But i didn't and try to learn from the mistake and rebuild shit. But i could not build because you went for my buildings :(

It's fine with me... It's all in the game.

[sardcore]

of course, we all have sets that we are most comfortable with.

it wasn't a great big deal to keep this nick secret, I thought about IM gob but i rather him tell all of us why he felt justified in makin my identity public. Does he have this right? Again, for example: If you are a qm'er and u make a pansy nick to avoid duckers, and someone gets beat by a pansy nick guy and asks gob on a public forum for the tru identity, wouldnt you get mad if gob blew ur cover? In the wise words of Don King, it's the principalities of the indiscretionalities that have been made apparant by the runoffatthemouthalities of the administrator, must give us pause.

[Fuzi0n]

There are so few people left playing emp, whats the point in making new nicks?

There are so few people left playing emp, whats the point in making new nicks?

The main reason I've noticed people making new nicks is to allow them the option of playing QMs ... esp. with players that are known to be very good at playing. Take elite47, rotazoom, gunwounds, etc. (there are many others still playing and I cannot think of their nicks off the top of my head) ... if they used their orginial nicks, do you think they would get more than 6 QMs a month with more ducks than a person could shake a stick at. It's frustrating clicking on the quick button time after time in order to get a game ... then when someone is finally matched up with you - they duck. Then, you start the process all over again -- then maybe just maybe you will get a game that someone does duck you on. Even someone as lousy as I am in 1v1 games gets duck.

[slim]

hehe sard nice game yesterday in the bc hehe for me ;D ;D ;D

yes i thing thats wrong when everybody ask gob whether he can look for the real name thats unfair im playing with 3 nicks online 1 for real points and games and the other 2 for duckers and looking whos a cheater or not and not every clan or player which i have wrote in this board as a ducker or cheater i was playing with slim2011 (i have a training clan but with this one im very rare playing online ...)

but i think when someone was cheatet or d/c then gob could say the real name(nick) of this player...

[Gobalopper]

Well if people have such a problem with it I won't unless they are cheating. I can see why you may not want people to know.

[Marcel71]

I agree with slim. Only when there is faul play we can ask gob to help us. (faul play with proof)

I did not ask gob to check ip's, i just asked in common if somebody knew who this nick was.

Enough said now... Time to close ;)
