GoBucks Cheated. A tale of multiple accounts.

Day 371, 20:06 • Published in USA USA

• by Tiacha

Throughout the day, I've been receiving several threatening messages from users named CooldudePhil and CooldudeDan. In this I will post all the messages I've received which range from name calling, gold scamming, as well as several suspicious shouts. While I know CooldudePhil and CooldudeDan are the same person, I believe GoBucks is the same person too.

First point, the shouts. 8 hours ago GoBucks makes a shout saying "Today more then ever I am relying on your vote for Congressmen. Please be sure to vote for GoBucks before the day ends. Thank you!". A normal shout.

3 hours ago, CooldudeDan shouts "Today more then ever I am relying on your vote for Congressmen. Please be sure to vote for GoBucks before the day ends. Thank you!" The exact same thing GoBucks said. Why wouldn't CooldudeDan change the personal pronoun "I", unless he was GoBucks.

Now, for the pms. At 2008-11-25 13:06:25 CooldudeDan sent me: hi

do you need my vote

I replied in the affirmative. He replied at 2008-11-25 13:09:02
Re: Re: hi

Why would someone ask for money? Conspiracy?

Now for the messages from CooldudePhil.

pls

In short, GoBucks, Cooldude whatever has done everything from trying to scam me and bribe me to get out of the elections all the while multiaccounting and cheating. Is this what you want in a Congressman? I've laid out the evidence. This has been reported to the admins. If cheating wins, I suppose GoBucks will win. But abuse should not be tolerated.

I thank you for your time.

(No Offense) but I was skeptic that the Cooldudes were Gobucks when you first posted it in the forums.

But the shout...The shout screams multis.

Panther Day 371, 20:17

Um, actually this is doubtful.

Epic FAIL

(Granted I am biased to a friend as well but that evidence is pretty convincing)

joeyhens1 Day 371, 20:38

You know, it could be somebody trying to make GoBucks look like he has multis.

Desertfalcon Day 371, 20:51

I have to agree with Joeyhens, there is not sufficient evidence to show that go bucks cheated. The accounts could easily belong to some body else.

Troy Roberts Day 371, 20:58

idk i dont think anyone is that stupid... but you never know

these kinds of things make me happy im not admin

Panther Day 371, 21:15

Troy - why do they make you happy...

Rocco Baldelli Day 371, 21:15

I've known Bucks for months now, and he doesn't type like an idiot. Plus he isn't the type of person who is that desperate for a position like congressmen. Of course the two other citizens could be multis but you can't blame Bucks if he out campaigned you.

Ben P Day 371, 22:55

I find it hard to believe he would do this. Those accounts might be multis, but they don't belong to GoBucks.

Tiacha Day 372, 04:23

Still even if those "Cooldudes" were not gobucks, they are multis, they did vote for GoBucks and if they were eliminated, I would have won as we ended in a tie and apparently the tie goes to the larger party not the person with more xp.

Tiacha Day 372, 04:26

Well, the cooldudes have been banned but their votes have not been discounted. What kind of democracy is this where cheating prevails?

GoBucks Day 372, 05:28

While I can sincerely apologize for the acts of my supporter I can not change them. Tiacha, I regret that someone would be as much as a moron as he and that he did such things. As for the shouts the guy simply used the wonderful tool of ctrl+c and ctrl+v. I am glad the admins acted swiftly and banned the cheaters. Tiacha it would be my pleasure to work with you in Congress, if you so desire please send me a message.

Told you! GoBucks isn't banned and he would have been if he had the same IP as the cooldudes.

This smells nothing like a multi-account. A multi-account looks more like this:
- 10 names, with slight variations
- 5 get jobs at the same company within 2 minutes of each other
- same state
- same skill level
- same age

That's a multi, and the admins still wont boot for that.

Eugene Harlot Day 372, 18:59

GoBucks is a classy guy and continues to show it. If I weren't deployed to Texas for the Marines, I would have voted for him.

O-H!

GoBucks Day 372, 19:13

I-O!

Thanks for the praise Eugene. 😃
