How about making mission/competition entries only valid if they were battles that happened during peak hours when there were a certain number of people in the queue/on your server?

Two birds with one stone, as it disincentivises unhealthy round-the-clock grinding making WG seem more conscious to govts like N/S Korea or China, and makes fixes much harder to pull.

Your real “complete name and address” not somebody else’s your trying to get into trouble. Even now your trying to be a wiseguy. Give it and I will visit you sometime, I travel a lot and your place could be along the way.

Yes, he is a clanmate so he is obliged to received the benefit of the doubt from you. I wonder how much cognitive dissonance you experience when you defend argentvs – if he were not a clanmate would you still defend him (i have had a few unfortunate run-ins with agentvs and i can truly say he is the epitome of an immature douchebag)?

My first experience with contest rigging was with the tank model building contest where you won by having the most upvotes on your submission. One time i was randomly browsing through and just happened to refresh the page – one player’s (argentvs of ACA) submission gained 30-something upvotes and his nearest competitor received the corresponding amount of down votes. I then proceeded to check the profiles of the accounts that were on the thread and sure enough nearly all of them were ACA, ACA-T, CAZA, and other allied clans, while the rest had zero battles played. I contacted Gaea with screenshots taken at different times, and he said he would investigate it, but of course nothing was done and argentvs won the contest. A lot of players were unhappy with the winner as well because honestly the winning submission was horribly crafted and painted with shiny gloss paint and looked like a christmas tree. I personally had no submission because im not interested in model building at all, but i do take fairness seriously, and WG has completely lost all of my confidence and respect in them concerning their ability to enforce equality. And with this recent scandal it looks like i am justified, and even entitled, to feel this way. I encourage the NA community to be diligent in exposing WG’s half-baked and utterly pathetic “contests” wherein cheaters always finish first.

You must be so proud of yourself, but it will come back at you somehow you piece of shit – and you know deep inside that you are. Place here your complete name and address or even just your in-game name and lets see just how proud you really are, cowardly piece of shit.

I’m not jealous, i’m not crying but everyone here, including you, knows you do not deserve that prize. I hope your girlfriend or boyfriend leaves you and you jump off a bridge and crush your mongoloid face. One less retard to worry about.

U must be a real no good player then who is a liability to your own team and pulls down everyone else added to that you surrender before even trying. Truth is any1 who tries has a chance, a supposedly “fair” chance. I have won some gold myself and I did not do any kind of fixing, who knows maybe if it were not for these cowards who cheated I might have even won the better prizes. (maybe someone here who knows will say it was “fixed” to make me win unbeknownst to me? please do.)

I agree.

The only way to force any comapny, WG especially to take care of some exploit is to use this exploit in so blatant way, they will have no other option then to act.

WG is retarded, since they banned whistleblower and probably will do nothing about other rigged contests / rigging in future.

Dude, seriously? He didn`t win, he got an honorable mention for actually MAKING a metal tank model. Yes his painting was crap, we all know that. He didn´t get anything he didn´t deserve. He must have poured 3 or 4 times the hours other people put into painting their store-bought models.

Even though he is from my clan, he didn`t ORGANIZE anything, another of my clanmates decided to make a post on our clan forums, suggesting people take a look at what he had done, which IMHO was amazing even with the crappy paintjob.
