Since you reported those, I believe you are an honest player.

Strange arguments:
I'm winning games against about 15 different opponents and is that proof or an indication of cheating?
And these opponents have been with BGA for years and play well over 100,000 games and are now helping me?
Or are my remote controlled dolls? :D
Backgammon is a game of luck and when it works, then it works. So what?
Is there somewhere in the games the impression that my opponents lose on purpose?

So: before making such accusations, one should be able to present some more arguments,
otherwise it just looks silly.

Seltsame Argumente:
Ich gewinne Spiele gegen circa 15 verschieden Gegner und das ist ein Beweis oder ein Indiz für Cheating?
Und diese Gegner sind seit Jahren bei BGA und spielen weit über 100.000 Spiele und helfen mir jetzt?
Oder sind meine ferngesteuerten Puppen? :D
Backgammon ist ein Glückspiel und wenn es läuft dann läuft es halt. So what?
Gibt es den irgendwo in den Spielen den Eindruck, das meine Gegner absichtig verlieren?

Also: bevor man solche Anschuldigungen erhebt, sollte man etwas mehr Argumente anfürhren können,
sonst wirkt das einfach albern.

With regards to my latest posts, I would like to present my apologies to sepasch and can assure everybody concerned about cheating that he is not at all implied. In the contrary, he is a valuable, honest, caring and very good player.
I mistook his activity and misinterpreted it and I all sorry about it.

Take care

Happy to see it's a misunderstanding. We are human after all and can interpret things wrong. What we should keep doing is keep on investigating things that look suspicious! That brought us a resolve last time and it overweighs false positives for which we can always apologize! 😅
