(There was supposed to be a thread already but seems to be not the case...)
Sunday evening was a typical night for Thidranki (Albs trying to get a beachhead, Mids holding the central keep, occasional Hibs spamming shrooms) until we - Albs - suddenly started to receive reports about a very weird shaman called Onetwotree who seemed to have access to Warp technology. Pop in the middle of an Alb group and gone again (it took us even some time to get his name because we couldn't target him), with the same unexpectedness off an unstealthing sb. He kept popping all over the place (I once had him targetted when he was in nearest enemy range and he went out of range in 2 'pops' in 3 seconds). I've seen lots of lag but this one is new to me and to the others that were present. So...
The possibilities
1. Still lag, caused by a hiccuping modem or provider. Argument against: he kept on playing. Can't imagine he would have contunued to play if the connection was that bad.
2. Some sort of cheat, though not a known speedhack.
The concensus among the cg members was: cheat and I think some players already have reported Onetwotree to GoA. And if the git was cheating, why didn't his fellow Midgardians say something about it?
