[?] Spades hacking? - Page 251

07:06 KST - method linked here has been disproved here

10:54 KST - Find a full timeline of pro comments (including Spades) in the topic here.

08:47 KST - Summary:
Accusations of maphacking have the potential to destroy a player's career if left unaddressed. 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.

(also a summary post by an unnamed pro on reddit here)

Here you go, on the second click on my first try to find the general area of the point I hit it.

Man, it's an "uncertainty" proof or it's an "innocence" proof?

Was wondering that too....

So what I'm gathering is that, while at first this method seemed to allow us to determine if he clicked with minimap, now it is being shown to be inconclusive?

uncertainty proof.
The other moves are just too fishy.

There may still be a way, it's just not as simple as linear distance between x and y coordinates, since the distance seems to vary by grid line for some reason. Possibly map terrain related?

wow guys.....just ease up a bit. People play differently it doesnt mean they are hackers. I think you are all seeing what you want to see even you pros. There is defintely not 1 concrete example of hacking anywhere. I see a lot of speculation and criticism of his play, that doesnt mean hes hacking. Saying no one would ever do that is just stupid people play different people are different.

It's certainly not proof of innocence because although using the mini-map can achieve these results, so can clicking on the full map as alledged

No. I think it means that that particular click location was possible via the mini-map and not incriminating. I think the principle still stands that Spades may have made a click that is impossible via the mini-map. The trick is finding such an incriminating click.

As of this moment, this method is unable to prove for sure that Spades used a camera lock.

One way to do it would be to know his screen resolution first. Next, on that resolution, we need to conduct a 1 pixel minimap click test to get the smallest variance possible. Following that, all the suspected replays must be looked through in search for any series of clicks with location differences smaller than that of the control figure. After which we go to that timeline in the replay to see where his screen is looking at when the series of clicks were made. Sounds like a lot shit to sift through.

I'm confused by the community No idea whats going on here lol. Are these people coming to the conclusion that some of the anti spades evidence is flawed?


It appears so. Maybe we're not actually a bunch of bloodthirsty Spades haters on a witch hunt like his supporters are claiming after all

They are probably all in school right now Interesting stuff you guys are doing though.

The method is still correct if you take into account the multiple clics as the original finder of the method did. I'm going to quote him : "Actually, if you look at the replay, you see two clicks that are .3 apart in the x direction. This should be impossible on the minimap."
He clicked 2 times very closely one to another in the fog of war. Until THAT is reproductible in the minimap, the method is correct.

The idea was that some of his clicks made "via minimap" or "during camera lock" were too close together to have been made by clicking on the minimap. As if he were actually clicking on the terrain. It has been debunked so far, but there might be another way to analyze it.

Other people have already tested and achieved similar results in their tests.

Can his screen resolution be extrapolated from viewing his FPPOV from his stream?

Is there any way to know what monitor or resolution he was playing on during these tourney games?

I wish we could answer these questions.

I even showed that I can click down to 0.3 distance granularity on the minimap on Daybreak in Specific, and achieved 0.2 on Antiga... Even better granularity might be possible with try harder or different system specs.

I'm pretty sure someone a couple of posts above did a 0.3 difference via clicking on the minimap on daybreak.
