How do I report suspected cheating?

Post by eldaryth »

I was recently playing 6 nimmt! #17841185 and there was alot of discussions in a different language.. When first challenged a reply said it was just chat. Using google translate, they were sometimes discussing which cards to play. i challenged them in discussion, they denied it. I suggested to abandon the game. All those who were discussing decided not to, so I quit. I red handed all those who did not support the abandonment, as I felt they were complicit.

Are you sure they were cheating? I saw some of them are quite new to the site - so maybe they were still explaining/clearing game rules while not being good with english. Did you check if they talked about cards not yet played or could it be post-analysis on the play before?

I think if they wanted to cheat they'd probably use another platform for that and not in-game-chat.

Of course I don't know if they were in fact cheating, but red-thumbing newbies for a vague assumption sounds hard to me.
