Popular Post Trajan Posted March 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 17, 2020 Greetings everyone, This is an announcement from our government regarding to the recent events that has occurred which involved our members who came from House Arryn (HA) through a merger recently. In short, the game administration has found them all to be multis and banned from the game. We apologize for the inconvenience and the mistrust that it may have caused. We do not condone cheating in any shape or form and have been and will continue to be transparent and open during all of this. Like you, we are just as shocked this occured. Us, original members, had no knowledge of the HA members being multis and using VPN and we will continue to proclaim our innocence as we move forward. To address some of the comments we have been seeing. No, us original members had no knowledge. Yes, several from our gov were banned, however they came from the merge with HA. This wasn't a full blown conspiracy. Why didn't we notice sooner? They each had their own discord profile and acted as individuals. As crazy as it sounds, they even talked as individuals and had conversations with one another and with others. We noticed their English was rough for all of them, however we assumed English wasn't their first language and brushed it off as we are a multi ethnic alliance. NPO 2.0? No. We believed HA wanted to play the game. They told us they knew each other IRL through school and that they played other games together, particularly another nation sim game and a GoT game, so they wanted to form a GoT alliance in PW. This was why almost all of them were created on the same day, we assumed they were a group of friends who wanted to play the game together. We also didn't force them to play. We didnt force them to log in. They literally acted as individuals, requested city grants, asked questions to play the game, etc just like anybody else. The multi incident first came to light about a week ago or so when Alex banned two of the HA members. Assuming it was a mistake on his part and to avoid it from happening again, we tried to get them all verified but none did. We admit, the cry of outrage from the HA members and the lack of any effort from them got us a bit suspicious. We began our own internal investigation soon and dug deeper. We looked deeper on discord and our own website and this is what we found so far. (Also during this time, the rest of the HA members were banned for the same reasons as the two members before, similar login patterns, same device / same browser). From what we found is that we believe Alex is right and they were multis. We found out that during our questioning, they either lied to us or avoided the questioning entirely by screaming out against Alex and ignoring us. Also we can confirm Alex's claim with similar login patterns. From what we can see on our own website, it appears the logins were minutes apart from one another. Even tho we can only see their last logins, we believe the pattern went further than that for however long. We also looked closely at the conversations HA had with one another and we realized the images they posted of their "real life" came from the internet by performing simple google searches on their images. Moving forward, we welcome anyone who wishes to ask us questions about this matter, you can DM us in discord. We have kicked and banned every HA member from our discord server as we feel confident that they were multis. We would like to thank our allies and friends for their support as we recover from this incident. We talked to Alex and we applaud Alex for bringing this to light and taking action as needed to be. 6 22 Quote Roman Empire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avakael Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I was wondering about that huge chunk of identical nations. Another point of interest is that they were exclusively on South America / Australia / Africa - almost all of them were on identical city builds, and those 3 continents let them keep bauxite in all of them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atlan Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I've played with your group for over 2 years semi closely, and I would never believe you would intentially have multis. I commend yall for being transparent in this, and I respect your perseverance through this. Good luck and I am happy to be an ally ?? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex said he will not gonna delete parts of our bank or refund what we lost when they got banned. We haven't gained anything from them since each penny went into building them up to city 15. We lost about $2.5b from them + $500m loan we gave to them when they created HA. So we lost about $3b.

Because we taxed them 100/100 and everyone had to be on one city build if they wanted to receive grants for new cities. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Prefontaine Posted March 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 17, 2020 This is an example of how to gain respect as an alliance. Alliance size doesn't matter with respect to quality. Kudos at turning a negative situation for your alliance into a positive gain for your alliance. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I originally wasn't planning on being involved with PW but with the recent events, I felt my presence was needed. However because of the virus and everything, including jobs, shutting down back home, we are discussing staying for an extra week. 1 Quote Roman Empire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
