You have to provide some kind of evidence/proof (screenshots/replays etc.) if you are going to accuse somebody. Additionally, a supporting comment of what people should be looking for and when will be necessary if you are posting replays/evidence. | ||

If more people want to review it that is ideal. I hope that the people that do choose to will examine it frame by frame as I have, screen movement by screen movement to see where winter's camera is, especially the instances that i have highlighted (in both games) where he is following cloaked units through the fog of war and clicking towards them and reacting to them. | ||

The 2nd thing you mentioned, clicking near 1 pixel away from the obs WAS a coincidence, I watched it from winter's pov in slow motion, and he was spamming right click WHILE scrolling up to his third (i.e. mouse at the top right position of his screen) and his last right click happened to be next to the observer. He was manually issuing all of these commands. He could have been clicking towards dots on his minimap though - but it couldn't have been a script moving for him. | ||

then again with the whole viewbot scandal it's going to be hard for anyone to be objective about winter | ||

That perspective in itself is bias against ProTech and Avilo, if you sincerely wanted to be objective and view other peoples opinions, then perhaps you would have taken the time to read through atleast some of the 468 pages here and viewed other peoples opinions rather then discrediting theirs. We are reviewing Winter here, not ProTech's post history, lets stick to the topic please. | ||

And not only was it once he used the "minimap" precisely like this. He did it on multiple occasions. I have watched Starcraft replays, vods, etc for well over a decade. I have seen enough "fishy" situations to know when it is more likely that a situation is just a coincidence. This, to me, did not seem like a coincidence. I feel like many of the people on both sides of this situation need to really take a step back and just look at the facts. Like Avilo has said over and over we need to analyze the data without bias. Winter appears extremely fishy in both matches after analyzing the data. Is he 100% guilty? I am not certain. A bit more games with similar outcomes would be needed. You know for sure now when he plays he will not be using this "program" again. So maybe waiting for more evidence before posting would have been wise. | ||

If this was pure build order blind countering and looking through FoW, or changing builds to react to proxies etc. So, more replays before fully throwing someone under the bus. This is starting to push into conspiracy theory levels of "proof" that reminds me of the Future hunt (with far far fewer replays). | ||

winter - you were never required to respond to this; but since you did- i think you should be giving more complete information/details in your counterpoints. 3 possible outcomes to this: 1) avilo is wrong and will probably never be listened to anyone ever again regarding maphack accusations 2) someone finds 100% undeniable proof that winter is indeed hacking 3) people will continue to debate and it will eventually be forgotten about, just like the "sons of starcraft"/"match fix scandal article by richard lewis"/"every-other-thing-blizzard-doesnt-acknowledge".. etc. | ||
