Because of the potential consequences, we should be careful about accepting unproven accusations. The principle of 'innocent until proven guilty' should be applied here. That does not mean that there has been a conclusion about this case, however, which is why this thread remains tentatively open. Please discuss with caution and use evidence to back up your claims.

That scan on shakuras.
God damn. Just god damn. Yeah, I think it's just one of the best arguments. Nobody in their right mind (like above bronze), would waste a scan which has only 50% of landing on the opponent's fricking main at 5 minutes in the game, without waiting for the scouting SCV to at least confirm his spawning position. That's just retarded play. If you're not maphacking, that is... i just saw the scan, wtf 100% hacking In the loading screen you can see its MLG Shakuras which is forced cross spawn. "Starting spawns on Shakuras Plateau have been modified to ensure cross-map spawns only." http://www.majorleaguegaming.com/mlg/mlg-starcraft-2-map-poolSo... not really 50/50. The updated map pool does not have this, however, I can offer two potential explanations for the scan: 1) Spades was about to throw down a third CC and saw that Lucifron was rallying Marines to his natural. Given the distance between the Marines, it's not impossible that Spades inferred that Lucifron was likely cross. 2) I think this reason is stronger: in order to make another CC, all that was necessary was to know that Lucifron was not close by air. From the fact that only 1 Marine at a time was rallying to his base, Spades could probably infer that there was just 1 rax; he just needed to know where, because if it was close by air, drops would come earlier and would be harder to hold. (this is just speculation, of course).
We are not here to teach people how to use limited information to make decisions, let them be ignorant about the game as it ultimately doesn't matter what they think because there is nothing they can do in this situation. You should just let them know that lucifron wished spades luck, and he got his wish.

That's not true though. For example, if we're talking about a legal case (of which this is not), a judge can refuse a victim's request to stay anonymous. This recently happened in the Sandusky case where the judge ruled that all individuals testifying against the accused need to be identified and cannot use aliases.
I personally think TL should reveal who the individual posting it is.

I wonder how many hackers out there are going to use threads like this to improve how they hide their cheating.
Thought of this too, these kind of threads are a bit like antibiotics. Unless we destroy all the hackers at once, the ones left will eventually become resistant and a lot better at hiding their antics. I fear for the proscene when that happens.

Yes we do. Even in court witness must come to stand. Not just point his finger randomly at someone and say "this is the killer". Besides, this could start a very negative trend. Honestly, what is stopping me right now to create smurf account, start following some guy i don't like, get a hold of some replays and after some times accuse him of hacking with the same amount of evidence as we've seen here?

By USA law the acussed has the right to face his acussers.
What if the acusser is a troll, what if he is a pro palyer, what if he is a blizzard employee...

wow giX and Mirhi's posts don't really sound good for spades
has the OP's identity been revealed yet, btw?
|
Has anyone actually stopped to think for a minute?
What if he was not hacking? How could those actions be explained. Maybe it is merely a stream cheat, if anything.
Was there a delay on the stream during the games?
Also, if i was a team manager and heard accusations of this kind against one of my players I would try to investigate the accused persons computer. This on a voluntary basis of course.
Has this been done ?

It's really sad to see a man's career getting destroyed by a post on the forums. imo these hack analogies should be PM'd to the big people in the competitive scene and let them decide wether or not the suspect is guilty or not.
I don't care if Spades hacked these games or not. I just don't want to see him to lose his career over this post. If he has been PROVEN (not assumed) guilty, then i would be happy to see him removed from the competitive scene.

Why do you or the others want to know so badly? Is it because you want to praise him, or is it because you want to barrage him with hate? Either way... The original poster doesn't want any of the hate or respect, and it is up to team liquid to decide whether or not to keep the thread open based on the original posters true identity.

if it's the same amount of evidence then there is reason to believe he is hacking, this isn't like some random dude grabbed some replays because he disliked someone

You may have noticed by now that Starcraft takes place in a Sector of the galaxy far distant from the USA. As such, why would you assume that the legal system of Starcraft would resemble that of the USA?

Spades, please answer this following question instead of ignoring it every time it pops up.
Why do you not look into the fog of war not even once in bo7? and why do you do it every 5 seconds in ladder matches you provided us. Stop dodging the question and just answer.

If they use google they have committed the action themselves, and of their own accord. If it is posted and allowed here, then Team Liquid has supported the spread of hacks, which Blizzard would have something to say about.

I would like to know just for the sake of knowing. If I was called out instead of Spades, I would sure like to know who is accusing me. Besides, it would be fair treatment. He doesn't want any hate or respect but is ready to put all the hate on someone else. That is a bit sad.

Can't he wait for his SCV to scout bottom left at least? The SCV was 20 seconds away from reaching the natural. That's trading 1 MULE for 20 seconds of 3rd CC building time, which is obviously not worth it.
1) is not really valid either, there are like no difference in travel time between cross and horizontal spawn locations on Shakuras. Spades is not at a caliber where less than 5 seconds between 2 marines matter...

I think he is guilty, ones a liar always a liar. Let alone that he wouldn't own up to it in Broodwar discredits the validity of his comments severely.
