in theory this can be if drakon had a lot of time-out games and finished them at once but thats not possible - as i understand the forced finish feature not supposed to work yet.
probably drakon found and exploited some bug

Dracon is VERY patriotic about his country - the UKRAINE - the home of brothers Klitchko...

Well, it seems he has unstoppable desire to see his motherland's Flag everywhere... and such patriotism and self-sacrifying is ... well... is an example for all of us!

yeah he is so patriotic so he even refuses to speak russian though i am sure he should know it.however if his "patriotism" leads to bug-exploiting he should be banned.

I think the only way of 'cheating' would be to manipulate the allies at the start of the game. For example, if you surround a player's large city with your own, or spread the player out. I don't know much about coding but I had a look at my savegame files and there seems to be definite patterns that a hacker could be able to recognise and change. They even mention the name of the country in the file.

I think that Steel Panthers had a similar problem so they introduced a crytic savegame system where the two combatants would each submit a password before the game actually started, then the savegame was encrypted each turn and sent off. This would go a long way to stopping any manipulation, if it is occurring.

 Post subject: Explanation
PostPosted: Fri Mar 26, 2004 8:00 am 
Dear Opponents,

1. Re: Explanation.
I'd like to come down a little bit & explain present event. There is nothing special & it's available for everyone.
Hereby I truly notice that there is no any bug or cheat known for me still at persent moment. But if there will be these ones in the future - hope Real players will not be using these ones cause clear victory is clear victory & only this way can bring great enjoing.
I just collected within last week games with one turn to finish. And additionaly the mostly of these ones have been finished during 4-6 turns cause I used the basis '300 %'. If someone don't know what is it - pls check the rules more carefully. And when I've collected essential quantity of almost finished games - I've finished these ones during about 30 minutes.
I repeat - it can do anyone, pls try.

2. Re: Special reply for Mr. Mrakobes.
Dear Mr. Mrakobes,
Pls accept my sincere apologies connected with refusal to reply in Russion. Just English is much closer for me then last one.

3. Re: Special reply for Mr. Pitor.
Dear Mr. Pierre,
I'd like just to thank you for yr kind words & I'm very appreciated you for yr attention.
Sorry for my reply re present game but as you see I was busy. I'll try to do all my best to reply more quickly.

Brgds,
Sergey Drakon.

That was a good idea to put the national flags along the player names.

That makes players be more partiotic and play MA better and more actively...

However, Ladies and Gentlemen - do not worry... all of you will have a chence to serve your contry and display your country's flag on the most favourable place... in the upcoming Wold Team Cups....

And in addition I'd like to show just several interesting & funny replies.
All these ones are clear victories in 4 turns.

Pivo...Pivo Pivo Pivo...Heh.
Did anyone notice the third program listed in the Start menu of Pivo's pic, was the Massive Assault browser window cut-off to "MASSIVE ASS"?

Heh. Good times. :)

:lol:

Makes you wonder how it would have looked if the game was named differently...

"STRATEGIC ASS"? (hey, that's me!)

Pls be noted - in the night from Friday to Saturday on 01th.05.2004 I've broke my previous 1st record. And as resuld I've made 33 victories in a row. As confirmation you can see this one stated below. It consits from 2 pictures as such vicory's quantity can't be shown in 1 window. In my 1st record I planned to make strictly 30 ones & I've made it in fact but due to some bug 2 victories have disappeared.
You know, it's too difficult to make such result cause a lot of players are playing in the same time & sending also victories with you. Due to this yr result in 1 row can be impossible - but I was lucky.
Addidionaly the 1st of May is a Labour day in CIS countries mainly & celebrates accordingly. I think that I've met this holiday ia a proper manner.
Sincerely wish you new records.

Brgds,
GoT MA clan / Sergey Drakon.
