I just watched the replay and I didn't see this at all. While the scv was scouting, Dimaga never had more then a 1 to 1 drone mineral ratio so he never had to move drones around.
If you watch game 2 (no stacked minerals) he uses that same idea and only uses 9 drones for his main.


Watch it again, there's clearly more than 1 drone mining per patch at many times.

Or just click the patches until it selects the bogus ones.

Dimaga moving his drones to hide the fact he's using stacked minerals so he clearly knew they were stacked and was hiding the fact from Idra's scout.

That's very elaborate, but without Idra how can you prove he used a hack to modify the map? That Idra accidentally or purposefully (the former far more likely) hosted an edited map and Dimiga noticed and took advantage is far more simple. Occam's Razor suggests the simpler explanation.
But we obviously need Idra's feedback on the map he made.

Is there actually proof of such a hack existing?

The map's top bases' outer two minerals on both sides/top/bottom are all double stack, there was no hack used to "add minerals", or if there was, it was unnecessary. If Idra hosted map, Dimiga couldn't have known the map had stacked minerals and thus it's incredibly unlikely that he used a hack to guarantee himself the top position.

Can you use a hosthack to change the map that is hosted?

Well, honestly i do it myself sometimes too, just to have equal worker count on each base. Seriously i didnt see where Dimaga actually moved away drones to hide the fact that he's mining stacked minerals

Even if that was the case, dimaga shouldn't have hidden the fact that the wrong map was used, he could've said something fairly early in the game. Unless he didn't notice, which is possible.

Can anyone confirm what the latest hacks floating around do to see if they can create stacked minerals after a game starts?

This
When you make 2 hatcheries in your main you have to send more drones to your natural, it's too hard to tell and it doesn't look like he did that on purpose at all to me

Agreed.

I saw a replay once that an iccup admin reviewed where the player used a modified map that had neutral heros and units in his base. So he had picked protoss and rushed mc while turtling in his main, the other guy was like "lol I'll just sit here and win". He had bcs and crazy strong units etc pretty quickly. Adding stacks to iccup maps would be a sinch, and iccup has no way to prevent it really. They just go by the map name.

Sorry I didn't mention the period. It comes after the drone transfer + drones on gas until his natural is decently saturated.

In both reps from around 3:20 to 5:30. I used the desty and heartbreak reps
You can see he likes to keep about a 1:1 ratio and then at the next round of drones after 5 minutes are put onto his main line.

yes we have established that it's the map and not DIMAGA, and IdrA was the host so.. most likely just hosted a bad map that he got from some random user


if thats the case, dimaga is still a dick for not telling its a fucked map imo.

Would you notice? I wouldn't

thats why he moved drones away when scv was near.right

idra hosted rigged map to laugh at him in case of beating him with such disadvantage.
but since he lost, this shall not be revealed!



So Idra KNEW he wouldn't get the north base?

So if he did he would of just abused it himself eh but was just hoping he wouldn't get it?

Stupid argument. If Dimaga did move drones (and this can be proven as malicious rather than just moving to diff piles or running from units) then it just means he's an asshole for taking advantage of the map. Can anyone here say Idra is of good enough moral standing that if he DID notice it he wouldn't use it either? Dunno, but it seems clear Dimaga didn't go into the game knowing he would do this.

ALSO... if Idra did know the map was messed up, then he would EXPECT Dimaga to try and abuse it. Since nothing was said in game this either means that Idra might not of known the map was messed up, or when he saw no double-mining with his scout he assumed Dimaga never noticed it or he decided to just play along for whatever reason.

Just more questions to answer lol.

A few things i wanted to say, has anyone checked the map for a trigger that forces one player to spawn in a location? Plus even though Idra hosted isn't it possible they played before with Dimega hosting first with the map?

Oh so it definitely was played on melee then? Well. It would be retarded to take a 50/50 risk of giving yourself an advantage.
