  I played him a few times in multiplayer games and if he cheated idk how to tell but played super fast and scored very well never seen anyone that good 

  Never played him so no clue what he did in game.  His RG history at TL was not remarkable, and his average was a BoF special, and the rest I frankly do not care about.

  Just one competition he played as a Legend under his new account as below.  He was a TL under the old account and we all know the rules.  He knew that was cheating.  That bit is in black and white, and so that I why I have no hesitation calling him that along with his admission to what he he did of course.

  Then how the hell can you be calling him a cheater? WGT says you can only have one account. So you get banned from the game because you're an excitable hothead. What do you do-never play the game again? Of course not, you start over if you want to continue. How is that cheating? Are you supposed to pretend not to know how to play? Are you forbidden from partaking in RGs that will expose you in a heartbeat and get you promoted faster?

  Cheating is using something other than your God given talents at clicking a mouse. That's all he did. He'd still be playing-at the TL level, no less- if he'd never found the forums to rant about stuff.

  Knew what was cheating? WTF are you on about? The old account was dead! You're making it sound like he was a true MA, using more than one account at the same time. That is patently untrue.

  I'm not one to usually care I don't have a consistent enough game to even play ready gos but when threads like this emerge and these so called prodigys come out of the wood work and people say ohhh he's just that good i can't keep just reading lol

  I worked my azz off to get to tour legend and that was my goal but i give props to those who can kill this game (without cheating that is ) only they know who they are

  Im pretty sure the rules state you cant earn credits until you reach the tier you was at on the other account 

  correct me if I'm wrong here

  Maybe I am wrong, but if you ask WGT to please close an account so that you can start another one they usually ask that you do not play for credits until you attain your old tier?

  That would seem fair anyway as a TL against a bunch of new to the tips is not much of a victory IMO, but if that is allowed correct me.  

  That's all I mean by cheating in his case, and that is cheating as much as using SW IMO.

  EDIT: Leave to one side his self exclaimed $120 gained from selling on the black market.

  IIRC, that was a suggestion in another one of these threads on how to deal with this stuff.

  Ok thats kool but still like the other jim said he knew what was wrong and what was rite and he did it totally wrong 

  plus the fact he conned people out of real money to buy a real life driver should show his true colors 

  Well we need to get back to the recent matter I think this one is dead and over since both accounts are gone don't ya think

  I think a lot of this flap would go away if WGT just eliminated credit winnings at the lower levels and capped the earnings in the tiers they would allow it in. That way the serious credits would be fought over by Legends and TLs and you can't hide from the back tees.

  Is this the one you mean?

  Lizard69:  To quote Icon when I asked about restarting,

  "You may close your old account, you may NOT gift clubs and/or credits to your new account, you may not enter any Ready go's, MPC, Blitz until you reach the tier of your old account"

  I haven't time to try to trace it back further, regardless, it is unfair to other players in the RG or whatever tournaments they play in.
