Topic: I Have Been Called a 'Hacker' 3 Games In A Row!

(Yuri's Revenge)

Oh yes, the first game was hilarious. Guy had a battle lab and was trying to make prism tanks off a single harvesters, I had 7 of them out scouring the map. I also grabbed all 4 oil derricks, including the ones by his base. I drive into his base that has a single SEAL and a single prism tanks with a dozen lashers, 8 gatling tanks and 30 or so brutes and proceed to turn his base into a crater. He says I am using a unit hack since I had more than him. I laugh, he leaves

The second game was because I was using a money drain hack. He didn't seem to accept my explanation that those floating discs sittig over the 3 refineries he had out in the middle of nowhere was the reason. "thy dun drain mony noob!". *shrug* I swear they sat there for a solid 5 min while his miners just brought me cash the entire time

The third game was due to the discs again, but this time it was when I powered down his base with his weather generator 17 sec from complete. Guy couldn't figure it out, why everything had no power. He had made a power plant next to a derrick out in the middle of nowhere, had my disc over it on the other side of the map


People make me smile sometimes

Me want to play.

Sorry about last night, my comp froze, and even the off button wouldn't work,

I figured out why though, it has something to do with Beacons.

Yeah, it's so much fun to cheat people and then make fun of them.

Edit: your second and third paragraphs lead one to think you were cheating. You weren't?

umm.. he wasn't cheating he was just playing well and the people accused him of cheating. At least that's what i read out of it.

Someone also accused him of cheating, because he blew up the opponents Robot Control Center, and the Robot Tanks stopped working...

LOL...

Meaning the guy was accusing him of using a Money Drain Hack.

It's funny...

I was making fun of my opponent with that sentence there, heh. I wouldn't cheat to win... hell, I don't think there even ARE cheats for it. People just like to have a reason to explain someone being better than them.

I've never cheated and never will... god, I can't count the number of times I've kiled people in BW that used a map hack or they rigged UMS games in their favousr (Example, guy made a trigger to give him a 999/999/9999 etc. scout... so I locked it down and dropped a pair of nukes on it. I swear a side effect of using a hack is your IQ dips about 70 points)

Yeah, killing the robot control center and shutting down his robots was a particularly hilarious one

I swear people don't use A) Logic or B) The Instruction Booklet before playing a game

Reminds me of when I'm playing TFC and people accuse me of having a wall hack because I'll almost always have a grenade ready to throw in their face. They fail to recognize that when they move, they make footsteps. Footsteps that let me know they are coming.

I've yet to encounter someone smart enough to realize I'm doing this and to sneak up on me.

I don't know how to be sexy. If I catch a girl looking at me and our eyes lock, I panic and open mine wider. Then I lick my lips and rub my genitals. And mouth the words "You're dead."

It was worse in D1 arena matches.

I've stated this in another thread, but basically, I was a rogue. They hacked, I didn't. I used some high damage bow, and when I got my ass kicked, I broke out The Needler (legit! It 0wnz) and started kicking ass. They accused me of using an item hack to speed up my bow, and using a stat hack to increase my Dexterity to 999.

Face it, gamers find any reason to not admit total defeat. My brother always says "Oh, you just got lucky" whenever I kick the crap out of him in a game.

Heh, I've got that too in WFA when I kill people behind me without looking using pipebombs. No one ever thinks about their footsteps
