Steve, you're embarrassing yourself arguing Connor's points. EpicMafia is now a dictatorship.

Not playing further is just acknowledging the people above you as the people who deserve the trophies


this is dumb as hell btw. what if i thought the people above me didnt deserve the trophies? then am i allowed to tie the round?


Did you even read what I said? You can't exploit the tie system to get what you want.

You're allowed to cede a trophy or not cede a trophy, however, by playing or not playing your hearts.

And yes it was mentioned, I was there too you know?

Things that you're allowed to do- not play your hearts once a round is ending.

Things that you're not allowed to do- not play your hearts in order to artificially prolong a round.

No Connor, I'm not.


the "exploit" was never distinguished when the first ruling happened so it's irrelevant

Connor the reason you weren't allowed to tie the round is the same reason you wanted to tie the round, and it is because it is exploiting the tie system to get yourself into a position that would otherwise be impossible (or more difficult) for you the fair way.

If the person in question were intentionally tying the round so that someone else could get a trophy it would be the same.

It isn't the same, however, if the tie system isn't being exploited in the first place. Not playing further is just acknowledging the people above you as the people who deserve the trophies and that should be and is perfectly legal


you're the only person defining it as an exploit

But I think if keri wants to have a silver instead of a perfectly achievable gold, then let her have silver. It's her account.

well you are an idiot bear. you know nothing. brown didnt play because he had to go somewhere. and i had sealed the trophy with a 300 point gap or something. he never cared who came second. idiots like you dont remember anything.


i don't commit epicmafia history to the sturdiest synapses because there's a lot more to life than silly trophy drama.

Intentionally tying is outlawed because it allows you to get a position that would otherwise be impossible for you to get.


um... no one said this when it happened BTW. so it's false

Steven says

These are not equivalent at all. Tying the round allows you to get a trophy that should be above you because the system is flawed and does not lock the upper trophies.

If the system locked gold you would be completely free to tie the round


the "flaw" is only a "flaw" in your opinion. this "flaw" was not outlined when i was denied my chance at gold

Conner was mad enough to drag this out for 9 pages. I think that's worth something!

Dixey says

lol connor is right, you just dont understand what does he mean. If the reason he was forced to play was affecting TOP 3 it's literally the same situation.


thank u


having Dixey agreeing with you just make your side look worse
