Cheating Investigation Unit

almost 10 years

We are looking for a group of community members to be a part of a full-time Cheating Investigation Unit (CIU). We feel that this will streamline cheating investigations, make less work for mods and community members who dedicate their time to it, as well as get more people involved in the community. Our hope is to catch more cheaters and deter people from cheating, as we will be able to use this team as a more vigilant watch.

This will be a team supervised by the mod team. You will be invited to a skype chat where round investigations will be discussed. This will be overseen by myself as well as any mods interested in assisting in handling cheating. We will be your go to people for any information or guidance you may need during the investigative process.

This would largely mean looking through games played and reading games of players near the top of the scoreboard, checking for any instances of rolesharing, meta abuse, multi-accounting or any form of cheating / sketchy play. This would also include making piratepads/pastebins or any sort of documents summarizing the games in question and what the alleged cheater is being accused of. With a sizable team of cheating investigators split between the two lobbies, we can effectively quash cheating more efficiently and prevent things from slipping through the cracks, as well as preventing the round from being paused needlessly.

This position would commit you to various levels of work, depending on demand and whether or not there is cheating present. We are looking for people with a strong interest in catching cheaters, experience in creating pastebins, and an in-depth knowledge of past cheaters and their tells.

If you are interested in being a part of the Cheating Investigation Unit, please copy the following application, fill it out with your info and PM it to me. I'll be accepting applications on a rolling basis and adding people to the team on an as needed basis.

Here is the application questionnaire: PMs not in this format will be ignored.

Name:

Date:

  1. Why do you want to be a part of the EM Round Cheating Squad?

  2. When it comes to cheating, what do you think you're best at detecting?

  3. Have you ever cheated before, and if so, how did you cheat?

  4. Have you done any sort of investigative work before? If so, could you provide some examples of your work?

  5. If there's any other important information we should know about you, please say so here.

Oh yeah, I should make an announcement:

Since the Training Round is going to be disabled for the time being, there won't be as much cheating to investigate outside of Comp. That said, I'll be reviewing applications with the mods at some point, although I'll be straight with you all and say that it may take a while until we implement this since it's not as pressing right now.

Thanks everyone for the applications. I'll let you know when we decide to put together the team, if we decide to do it at all now. I didn't expect the request to disable Training comp to go through so quickly.

I'll talk it over with the cheating mods and see what they think, haven't had any time to sit with them and chat it over and how they'd like to go about it.

i guess the CIU members should upload a video message with their faces concealed by masks for added effects.

yes, because knowing who the the investigators are in this confounded idea will significantly improve cheaters' chances of going undetected.

I HOPE (don't know if they will, but REALLY HOPE) they won't make it public. So the cheaters don't know either. Or at least, do not make public the name of the people in it.
