since 9/25/2007 BlueGecko has only been completing Amun-Re games he will win Evil or Very Mad

since that date he has finished 7 games with 6 wins
the one loss looks like he missed a bonus card the winner had
congrats to Tzar-T for winning this game Very Happy

BlueGecko has 10 games that go back to 9/30 where he has not
done his final scoring Twisted Evil

also a few of us think that BlueGecko is also user julius
julius quit SBW on May 25, 2007 and abandoned 19 games
BlueGecko joined SBW on May 25, 2007

BlueGecko has his vacation flag on -- this is a joke Evil or Very Mad

he is taking turns every day and has even joined at least one game
while the vacation flag was on

I'm in one of the Gecko's abandoned games.

I just posted messages to a bunch of his other games. Go have a look.

Add your own messages if you don't like this kind of practice.

Hi,

I was also in a game BlueGecko abandoned during final scoring.

My suggestion: For all those games, BlueGecko is skipped for final scoring. That's perfectly possible since the games are already finished.

What do you think? It would be the best way to counter and discourage such BlueGecko-style misbehavior in the future.

Rg,

A very convincing arguement.

Clearly the only way to deal with this is for one of the admins to firstly finish the games he has abandoned, and then ban him from the site.

that is exactly what I think. this would be a fair solution to the issue.

I'm in a current game with BG and I will hold fire from making moves in that game until he/she has made some moves in other delayed games.

So who's the nimrod who voted yes, I think they should be booted along with BlueGecko. Evil or Very Mad

I don't know who this BlueGecko character is, but that type of behavior reeks of bad sportsmanship. I like the idea of the admin finishing out his games so those all count against him.

...AND THEN BAN THE FOOL! Mad

Limiting the number of abandoned games would be a good move too. Once someone has abandoned more than a couple of games, freeze their account to only those games, no joining or creating new games.

Great idea Early ... when they reach 3 abandoned ... BAN THEM!
