Why is account sharing allowed?

Mookyvonover 11 years ago

For example this game: https://epicmafia.com/game/4060326 All the runners have someone else playing for them. Why is this allowed? In all other real games this is an instant account ban but here it seems to be the norm.

has anyone paid money for someone to win them a trophy?
well betrayal paid me for my old account with a trophy on it, so I guess

mods cant enforce things that create problems for them. The mods started this account sharing thing. then they even whitelisted their accounts as personal favors because they were doing a good job.

it's unreasonable to expect every single person who wants to trophy run to be available for 4-5 hours of mafia every day for 8-10 days in a row
No it's not.

That's why it's a trophy run. That's why people don't run every round. It's exhausting to do, but having subs gets around that.

he's actually right, i just doubt the mods would be willing to or would do a good job enforcing it so i don't see it ever properly being implemented.

hence why i'm not running this round, because i don't have the time

in order to get my trophy i had to put aside time that i usually wouldn't spend on epicmafia, playing the game so that i could use all of my hearts.

people running should be running solely by themselves imo

But I guess things are different here since epicmafia isnt too serious a game.
Take. That. Back. >.>

An example of illegal account sharing is in league where people pay elo boosters to go on their account and play as them in order to raise their rank because they are much better than them. But I guess things are different here since epicmafia isnt too serious a game.

if we got 8-9 good players to play 5 hearts each there'd be a better chance

Lol they are meaningless anyway
not according to the players and these forums.

There were a lot of bad players who played hearts for Deoderant323. I think it had more to do with that than anything else.

It'll never happen because players like me end up playing a few hearts, and as we all know, it's impossible for bad players to win trophies. Especially within the last two years or so.

trophies are awarded to accounts, not players

(switching players on an account mid-game is against the rules)
when has this been a rule?
this (although i don't think it shouldn't be allowed)

what rule would it fall under also
deleteddeletedabout 11 years ago
@OP: If you are unable to play hearts for 2 days for some reasons, such as going away for the weekend, spending family time, wifi going down, parentstakingcomputerawaybutthatwouldbesillyhaha, et cetera, you don't want to sacrifice your run for stupid stuff like that.

usually if they switch accounts mid-game a suicide occurs

It was never a rule, unless that person was in the game as well.
