I agree 100% there

i was so effin cheesed off while betting on Yue and i knew it was going in favor of Nixon after 6th match, so i started betting on Nixon, but hey its not fair play. Helping a guild mate is good but well not a game wide event. Anyways as long as Yue is strong and no one can get to semis except their guild mates what can we do :) Not to forget - Congrats Nixon , you probably needed that definitely not a deserving victory(i am sorry i have to say that). :)
Gratz to Nixon. Got to say that at least.
Couple of points. I don't play on the Asia-Pacific servers so can only use the term 'alleged' when discussing the match fixing. I agree it's a nice thing to do for a guildmate but the problem here is that it just isn't affecting these two players. People bet and sometimes they use gems to up their ticket wins, so I cam imagine they weren't too pleased to see Yue allegedly throwing some of her matches. You wouldn't be too pleased if you bet on a sure win in a boxing match, lose and then find out the fighter who you bet had taken a dive.
Trouble is when you start on these slippery slopes, how far will it go? Groups of players deciding who should win this fortnight's CW, then letting a few in the 'closed circle' so they'll know who to bet on in each round. Hopefully this is all imagery exaggeration, would really hate to see CW end up like that.
As for a seeding system, it could work. Might allow some of the middle ranked players progress a little further.
It's not alleged, its real. Watch the replays and see that Yue won the first 5 w/o a sweat, then removed all her heroes for the last 6 fights.
Tell us what you think Morgan.

It does look seemingly like that. However, my words are carefully chosen because as a mod it's my job to see the that the forum rules are being adhered to. One is them is not to accuse people of cheating (or in this case bending the rules). I can't go around and outwardly say 'X' has done this! Then go and tell someone else off for doing the same thing.
I put the replays up as I am confident this is a perfectly legal way of playing Tynon.
You may not like it... but at least we aren't playing the game feeding ourselves off 20 alts like some major players are which is clearly against the TOS.
Yes the rewards were given to the player Yue choose to give them too. Same way you can do in the arena but dropping down in ranks. Nothing wrong with that.
I think the betting aspect of CW should be removed, as its been abused in every season i've seen so far. Usually only 1-2 games at a time.
I think Yue should be given a harsh punishment for this, so that this incident wouldn't set a precedent for other cwf-rigging activities in the future.
