Round 491 - Ammount of games.

almost 8 years

STBS - 456

DDP - 216

O2R - 52

LOBK - 50

SP - 40

TPP - 33

All games - 847


All players - 1018

Hearts per day - 5

All hearts - 5090 per day.


11 days of competition

77 games per day.

3 games per hour.

1 game every 20 minutes.


What we get from this?

The biggest setup has 10 players. Which means maximum 10 hearts are used per game.

Lets say 847 x 10 = 8470 hearts.

This is 770 hearts used every day max.

770 out of 5090

This means 4320 are NOT used = 864 players.

Out of them some play just 1-2 hears. Others do not.

This lets 864 alts, some of them or GT or Cheating to play.

At least 154 are playing all their hearts and are somewhat active every day.

Out of those 154 more than half are alts of active players.


Again, i want to propose my ideology to the moderator team.

The amount of alts and players that register is too huge of a number.

The most played setup had 7 players and i am doing my calculation with 10.

Which means that even more players are not playing.

The right decision will be to LOCK the round for new players to sign up when day 5 begins.

There is no reason someone to sign up for the round so late, because they can't win, and because they had 4 days previously to sign up.

After the 4th day, the players that sign up are mostly GT alts, cheating alts and alts that do not even play.

Not just that, but cheaters will be caught cheating easyer, because they can't use old alts to register somewhere around the 10th day and cheat with them.

Please consider those statistics. The games will continue to be played. There won't be any less players that will play because as long as there are around 200 registered, there will be games every 15-20 minutes and there will always be a game open!

TL;DR - Close the round for new sign ups after day 4 AKA beggining of day 5. Based on statistics nothing will change except there will be less gamethrowing and cheating.

I never said there are no gt alts !e being a victim of it the round before ! My point is , you still get 5 gold hearts a day whether you join the round or not ???! So how do you stop people who hasn't joined the round from playing ?


You can't play gold hearted games, unless you register for the tournament -.-

Lock for sign ups. Not pause the round.

As in you can't register for competitive anymore?

Why pause the round -.-

Look, man, I'm giving you a chance to prove how it helps. Don't just say "I made the calculations". Instead show the process you used to arrive at this conclusion. You haven't shown that what you are requesting is effective, and I have shown that what you are requesting is unlikely to be effective. You have the positive burden of proof here. How do you make the determination that this will help?


I can't prove it because it has never been done here on this site before. What i am proposing is something new. If you so much want to see the results, then you are welcomed this round to close it at the end of day 4 and see the results for yourself.


Read what I wrote. Then read what you wrote. If you're confused, do it again. You can't use "do it to see how it will work" as your reasoning for why it will work. I understand you don't have empirical evidence to back up your conclusion, but you can develop a logical argument to provide it with validity.

You're making an assertion: Closing the round to registration at D5 will cause less GT alts to enter the round. My rebuttal is: Won't those GT alts enter before D5? Your counter-argument was crickets.

I'm legitimately giving you a chance to provide an answer. You're not getting the round locked on D5 without some solid reasoning and when I ask you to provide it, you're unable.


Ok, they wont join before d5 because they are too busy gt with their other alts to register the other gt alts.

It doesn't look like it will solve any problems, and if you think it does you need to demonstrate how.

There's no reason GT alts can't join before D5. You preventing a GT alt from joining on D6, not joining the round and throwing. It's not a problem that they join after D5. You're creating your own problem and then solving it, but it's not a legitimate problem.


Then why not allow new accounts to join the current round?

By your logic there is no problem because someone can make a new account and leave it untill the next round.

I am telling you. I made the calculations. This helps.

Second, Gt alts wont join last day to throw last day , but once they join first day, and not even play a ranked game till the last day, they will be obvious.

This system will help allot. It willl limit GT and Cheating. It will Solve some problems.

First there will be at least 300 gt alts in the rounds and the reports will be limited by 50 or so for the entire round.

Okay, actually, I have a question.

Predict the change in gamethrowing alts if we close the round on D5. Will gamethrowing alts cease or will they merely sign up before D5?


They will sign up before D5, but if you recieve 2 violations during the round, you will be suspended from it.

Now players keep signing up with new alts and avoiding getting 2 violations.

The GT will never cease no matter what we do. All we can do is limit it.


So nothing at all is changing, except the fact that gamethrow alts will have to join in the first five days. So how will this help solve the problem of gamethrowing alts?

Also, GT alts will be easyer to be caught and recieve actual GT violations.


At least thats what i assume because there will be 500 less of them.
