    Is Team_Gaol full of it ?

    I know how the cows operate ..... teams within the team. 40K a day from one of their single teams is rediculous especially since this team mustered only a 100K dump a few months back. 40,000 a day takes a rediculous ammount of computers.... we can contest to that. Just seems kinda out of the blue that they are able to keep up such massive production. There is a way to cheat in D2OL ...... I'm not going to say how but those familar with the program know. If they keep on having repeated dumps of the same ammount its a sure sign they are doing this. Also I looked at their statistics a few days back ..... they have dumps in the couple hundred range..... then one hour they'll have a 5,000+ dump. That is fishy! A large team especially that large is going to have more even dumps during the day. Theres no way you could keep that many machines synched to dump. Someone comes in here and explains all this it would be helpful or they stop producing 40 K a day. Also arent they suppose to be all from the same town of Gaol ? Where is this town I cant find it ? Do they have four DDtungs or eight Ronbo's or 20 LocalBusinessmen? If so ... prove it!

    Yeah im just asking some questions ..... but they could just be dumping all their machines. I know how large some of these sub teams are as well.... pretty big like almost the size of our entire team. Still shouldnt some of their dumps be more spread out ? Not a fishy spike that doesnt follow any pattern? Also they aren't that old of a team if memory serves me right.

    also they only have 67 nodes so it must be some wierd buffering system as even with 3ghz+ fx55s they cant be getting more than 250 per node per day (fx55 is probably the highest outputter per node) which would mean a max of 16750 per day.

    ps theyve only hit 40k once and in the 30 twice in the last week besides that its all 10-20k although about a week and a half ago theyd been at 1.5k per day.

    Yeah they could have supernodes ..... heck they could have one node. That is strange you'd figure if these arent dumps and this is their new daily it be way more nodes than 67. Yes I know but 30's and teens a day is feat only few can accomplish. It takes our entire team to do this many. Also look at there hourily statistics they are weird to say the least. If they stop I guess it would just be a another DPC dump just spread out. If not im pulling out the BS flag.

    181 000 canidates in the last 10 days. ....


    sounds weird but it could happen if you have enough comps under one node and then with 67 nodes ......

    is it just one node that does a lot/all the work or are all the nodes working good? (or can we not tell? )

    like x714n said - IF they cheat thats a shame and very sad

    btw ill admit to cheating for 50cands - but it wasnt deliberate!!! i was at 2.7ghz and loaded up 50cands and within seconds the buggers were done - i was like "WTFH"

    sounds pretty fishy to me. if they are cheating this is a very sad state of afairs. they are not only hurting their reputation but they are hurtin D2OL as a whole, putting up fake cannidates.

    EDIT: btw can you provide a link to the place where they have the stats for this team. cant seem to find em

    my guess, is that someone works in an office building with a bunch of comps, and has em all rigged up with d20l, and has em all using the same node #, everyonce in a while, he prolly lets em run

    Also me thinks those user stats machines couldnt even come close to doing that daily. So i've still got the flag out......

    Could be he just prevents whoel bunches of systems from having internet access for dumping cands, maybe thru a proxy or firewall rule, then when he has a feeling that they are ready to dump he changes the proxy/firewall, far easier to do that than change loadsa machines from offline to online. Also once you get the rigs in sync with dumps you can get away with just 4 nice dumps a day if you choose to without doing online offline.

    I reckon its a firewall rule as if they can do that sort of production they have alot of systems which in turn would mean maybe corporate network which equals nice firewalls + lots of rules.

    Much agreed with Big Deel.

    XS does not need to be caught up in any accusations of cheating.

    I agree with Big Deel looks like they have subsided only 13K so the worst is over. If they would have done that for a few more days I would quit d2ol. All this production was from one user on the team. The user stats say hes got a few machines but not an army. HE was the one responsible for their huge dump awhile back ..... which I think was legitimate but im doing the math he put a lot more this time and spread out. why? And no pattern? I guess you can do it .... Very hard to believe but you can. I want to see actual rig stats then and dont tell he buffered the machines he got then I really think they are cheating. The fact that one of the cows came in here and posted a link to the stats and not an explanation even more raises my suspicion.

    After reading your concerns and those on our own forum, I want to share some info on the massive dumps of Team_Gaol.
    Team_Gaol is a large subteam, which even has subteams within them.

    One of the members of this team has infected a lot of PC's at his work, all with the same node id. most of these PC's aren't online, they are milked (forgive the expression) at lunchtime.

    So therefore you will see strange peaks in there productions.
    I hope this solves the issue, so we can go on with the battle.

    Thanks for the clarification.

    I still have a funny suspicion that perhaps he doesn't have the necessary authority to run D2OL on those machines.
