Sounds like Mr. 100,000 armies is pretty damn secure...

But as far as the site goes, someone is messing with the laws of site-ational reality.

That's the best (and only) laugh I've had all day!

This would be the reason they are the second person on my ignore list.....

Hasn't tattaglia already been convicted of bug abuse?

Lack should delete the game, then ban him.

I tightened the deployement validation checking in the game engine and corrected the affected games. I don't think we're going to see any more of this nonsense, but I'll let Tattaglia continue playing for now just to see if he/she can discover any more bugs.

Good call Lack, like I said he doesn't seem to be all that malicious, he's not using his advantage to win games.

I think he should be commended for alerting us to the problem.

What would be more insidious is if say, someone used this bug to gain an extra army or two while cashing in cards or getting armies from continents, so an extra army here and an extra army there as the game progresses could turn out to be a lot.

In fact, some games have been suspicious recently with a massive sweep (when not escalating cards), though I never bothered to check and cross-correlate.

I agree with you. I could have been much worse. By allowing him continue to play un-punished I was getting my code tested for free by someone who knew his stuff
