z I ToP CaT I z Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 (edited) So i go to check the leaderboards this morning and I am missing! Was 4th on the dutch board and ~30k away from the achievement. Whenever I play i get a * next to my round position, with all the points etc not adding to my total. Edited May 11, 2012 by z I ToP CaT I z ...

madmankevin Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 (edited) ^^^Why'd you delete your post Top Cat? I thought it was a good FYI for others playing this game. Edited May 11, 2012 by madmankevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtowers Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Were you banned for using a solver? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kunduz Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 congraz, what did you get banned for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rekikire Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Yes he was banned for using a solver. Don't use solvers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmankevin Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 He deleted his (imo) very informative post. He admitted to using a solver, and warned people from using it. He also said that he was getting higher scores than normal due to using a solver, only used bigger words in some games, and started from bigger words immediately and went down to smaller words. His best tips, don't use a solver, or if you feel that you need to use a solver, don't get greedy and mix up the sizes of the words you choose. It was a very good post of his, I don't know why he removed it. The last person I knew who cheated and "went public" about it got their account reinstated in the game.

Jamieironmaiden Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Fair play for using a solver, it had its risks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtowers Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I have to think most of the people on the top of the leaderboards are using solvers. I find it impossible to do better than half going the normal way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assassino187 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 I actually score higher in Swedish game although I know not a word of it, so if they ban me cos they think I'm cheating I will go mad. Sometimes I score like 500 other times 100 how can they tell maybe I was lucky one round not the next. Besides they have to prove it surely! Sometimes the game starts and I'm doing something else, especially if I am playing it at work and landline rings or something, so may not play it till 30 seconds in, not because I am entering words on a solver but doing something else, odd thing to get banned, unless they see you cheating and how unless they there with me.

HamKet Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 So I checked his gamercard, and he got the champ achievement two days after he started this thread. Maybe it was a temp banning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skelix Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 anyone have an email addie to a wordament dev or someone to ask for forgiveness? I've been banned, I think I used solvers on Dutch/Spanish matches (well I know Dutch for sure). Never was able to get the one achievement, but now I can't get about half of the achievements on the windows 8 version because of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you HAVE to cheat do it once, otherwise try it legit, on your march for 100 games. I got it, and I'm by no means a genius.

Jwahl60 Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 I think I got banned also. I normally score 300-400 points but one round I got 900 (two words were quarterbacks (117) and quarterback). It has stopped tracking my total games played :/. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
