What are we going to do about saulonpb and His cheating here?

I see his's scores got 0's

Should he be warned about this ..

I am starting to wonder about his other scores now .
Wow he does not follow the rules here

http://replay.marpirc.net/r/1943
I am just looking for feedback on this.

saulonpb's 1943 scores have been DQ'ed for somehow managing to break 3 rules at once - using two players at once, mapping both players inputs' together, and autofire. I don't know why he thought he could get away with this...

If you have problems with any of his other recordings, please be specific as to which ones.

I would check all the games with listings Master Keyboard .

Except pretty much all the rest of his recordings with "master keyboard" in the description have not broken any MARP rules, as far as I know. Like I said, if you have found anything specific (as in, you downloaded the inp and played it back and noticed a rules violation), then let us know.

reading this, and then seeing Saulo's new entry, is good comedy!!!!!

I do not know what he is thinking.. He can change everything. Or his scores do not playback.

MASTER KEYBOARD [claimed 19,540 - default settings give you 1 life (I know the menu says 3, that will need to be fixed), you used two. Reducing score to 1-life score. -br]--WRONG, ONLY 1 LIFE, ONE MORE LIFE CAUSE I WAS PLAYING.

Funny with this rom set you start out with 1 life .. Then you get a 2nd Life at 20k.. He clearly did not get there .



something needs to be done about him!

are you hoping he gets banned from MARP because of him "targeting" scores of yours in the past?

No I am just wanting something done about him.

Everything needs to be fair here.

What is this "something" that you're expecting to be done then? Replays of his that break MARP rules are being dealt with. In the end he's just wasting his own time since the recordings won't stand.

As has been said before, if you find recordings that contain different dip switches or other rule violations, or have playback problems, feel free to report them.

First off I am stating about this Recording.. Where he changed the number of guys.

You only get 1 guy to start with . Then a Free Guy at 20k

Clearly he says he Dies and has another Life? If he died before 20k Game should be Over!

After his score is changed to 12k by confirmer .. He comes back and changes back to 19k

Who does he think he is?

Score has been edited back to 12000. If he wants to keep changing it, we'll keep changing it back. *shrug*

if he changes it back, that surely is cheating? and wasting your time?

He is not following by the rules is the problem .

Not all the scores marked with Master Keyboard string are invalid. And my opinion on this...
We can/should not ban someone because he/she sends too many recordings that go against the rules. The person behind the nick PG3 has surely done lot of mistakes, like having more accounts with the same email, but still he has one account to use for sending his plays. And everybody remembers what did Pengafin in the K10... yet his account is still allowed to submit scores; he doesn't play anymore it seems <irony> and I wonder why! </irony> but there you can find it.
Same has to go with saulonpb, he won't be banned. The spirit of not banning but invalidating the scores againsts the rules is to underline the fact that he has done bad, the invalid score will stay there as a mark, a memory, and to say that he can still repair and return in a situation of regularity but only if he stops to cheat. Correct people's mistakes, do not punish them.
His punishment, as well as others had, is that he is compromising his situation and giving himself a bad name/reputation. As well as, like BBH said, he is wasting his time.
