Tournament Cheating on Balmung

[Riepah]

It has no 'similar tournaments' because it's not a traditional tournament. It's a tournament without rules.
It's competitive but top rewards are not for a large number of people. They are for a few with the highest score.
However it's nowhere stated how you should earn that score.
Meaning you can earn that score by any means possible.
The tournament allows to buy wins and promotes wintrades because that's the only way to win. It's not forbidden.
So why are you bashing people who just want to win?
It's not their fault tournament is set up like this. Blame developers for how it was implemented.

Are you telling yourself that so you can sleep well at night, "Good Boy"?

It's not about me, I've never been in the top 20.
But I don't judge people who have the will and determination to win rare cards.
They did everything to win in these no-rules circumstances and they deserved it.
But I understand why people make them scapegoats. Too bad you are aiming at wrong target.
Maybe you should ask developers to fix the tournament instead of posting leaderboards.

Erm yeah hence why I said "semantics"
it may not be officially "cheating", but anyone with any semblance of intellect would probably say buying wins is not what most of expected it would boil down to
Who am I bashing by the way?
I don't really care, I am more of the opinion it's a shame that it's run this way

It is man you know it

So let's call it win trading. In WoW people got banned for it, or at least had their ranking reset so they didnt get any rewards. SE was really naive to release such an easily exploitable tournament system though. Or they simply dont care.

Wow if this is the mind set of people lets do this.

Lets rig the
Olympics
Every foot ball baseball well every game.
Lets cheat on everything cause why not use any means necessary right?
this is the mind set of every one who don't see win trading as cheating.

Olimpics, baseball, every other game has rules. It has punishable actions like wintrading. Triple Triad doesn't have any of this. Too bad you don't see a difference.

Its a tournament its implied that win trading is cheating just because you can't understand common sense isn't an excuse to defend it.

Please show me any other tournament where you can freely choose your opponent. TTT is 'tournament' only in title.
