Ucana's ALTS and Puma trying to destroy spymaster and ruin the fun for others

keysers0ze422 and th3_422 both have killed me 3 times within 40 minutes.

And another one just now.

I've only been killed 3 times since I logged on about two hours ago and of those it was twice in half an hour. Along with all the others that are getting hit constantly... they are pure suicide attacks as there were no other 'woundings' etc to take out my health and I wasn't doing any assassinations at all.

Am on a diff computer otherwise I would add my screen cap too.

Please put a stop to this blatant cheating and vindictive twisting of the games' intent. We want to play, and have some fun, but this person has destroyed not only the monetary system, but also the points system. Apparently the 'clean up' didn't affect him.

Or he's found yet another way to cheat.

What does it take before you will ban an IP address?

Rumor has it that is was you that pulled it off, as a spymaster frameup job. If so, you deserve a badge. Thanks for the trillions.. I gave m back

KEYSERS0ZE422 Killed you.

The thing is if you ban this person they will just come back with another one of their ALT's. I pointed out early on (3 months ago) http://getsatisfaction.com/spymaster/... that ALT accounts were being used to exploit the game. The problem is ALT accounts have ruined the game. I think the Directorate should come down hard and say that using multiple accounts to manipulate the game is a BANNED offense which will be strictly enforced. Today I was killed by Vertago1 with assist by BALLERJASON. Then I learned that Snarfspy is Vertago1 by his tweet to me from last month which used to say FROM Vertago but now says FROM Snarfspy. Obviously Jason has been busy manipulating his twitter accounts to the demise of other players.

Ucana422 is not the only one using multiple accounts. It is widespread and rampant throughout the game. I have learned that most people have two or more accounts, which was a big surprise to me when I first learned of the merging of accounts a month ago.

Alternatively the Directorate should legitimize multiple accounts. However make a maximum of 3 (for the 3 intelligence agencies) as a limit. These accounts must not interact in any way or all 3 will be banned and twitter and Facebook notified as appropriate (to show how serious you are).

I have played fair and worked hard to get my Att/Def scores up. It is a sad day when this sort of game exploit occurs and comes down to name calling like it did today at Pod's site. Then after Pod banned SimplyQua several people were attacked and subsequently killed by KEYSERS0ZE422. Which begs the question, how many accounts does Qua have? This sort of thing goes on and on.

In brief I just want fair rules that will be enforced. I realize with staffing you are not able to deal with petty issues as these may seem. But I think they are important enough that without some rule of law, the game is corrupt and no fun. I'm ready to call it quits.

Here's my screenshot: I placed bounties on a number of players I've been sparring with, and literally, within MINUTES, all of those bounties were claimed by one of two players: KEYSERSOZE422 and TH3_422. And in one case, TH3_422 **killed** KEYSERSOZE422, to claim a bounty I placed on his (Keyser's) head...and yet, just 2 minutes later, (a should be dead) KEYSERSOZE422 regenerated to kill me.

Are there points you can use to return from the dead in less than 2 minutes, or to kill very strong players in just one hit, non-suicide?

Wow!

.LAG (aka @boycaught)

UCana is mad. Flooding the spymaster's economy is just the most visible sign of his madness.

The problem for IrataLabs was to correct the harm done to SpyMaster, but they don't have had enough time to investigate the origin of the problem.

Ucana has many accounts : we should indicate to IrabaLabs every account suspected to belong to Ucana so that they could investigate.

Ucana doesn't want to play anymore. He's just spoiling the game ( breaking the toy he doesn't want to play anymore )

Yes Ucana you're really insane ( still no semantic with this word ) : you should meditate upon this , and take care of yourself. Si.

Well I died 4 times as well in the space of an hour! Why?
Ucana and his alts are simply ruining this game, now his shtick is collecting all bounties aswell leader board most wanted empty!!!People are walking away. And at this rate I hope I am wrong but the game will cease to Exist and Poor Chris, Albert & Ben will be out of work their livelyhood ruined, how very, very sad. Please ban his IP for G-d sake gentlemen do something.

How many accounts did you merge Pod? I suspect a hell of a lot to suddenly appear on the kill board overnight and then rise to the top ten literally overnight. If Ucana is investigated for quantity of accounts, then so should you and everyone else. There are a ton of people doing this. If you think SM doesn't know just about every move U makes, than you are fooling yourselves. Tricks of the trade here. As for chat earlier, It wasn;t me calling people names. It was one of your brethren, Just because you don't like being called on what you say, doesn't mean it's not true.

Things like this are not cleared up either... eg.

I don't know if ucana has a bunch of alts or not. I don't know if keysersoze is running amok using suicide attacks with ill gotten points or just using honestly earned points how he sees fit. But I'm adding a screenshot that shows a possible suicide attack as another piece of evidence.

There seem to be enough posts that the issue should be looked into.

I also am getting tired of Ucana's constant craving for attention by taking the game's few handicaps and using them for his advantage spoiling the fun for others in any way he sees fit. If it were any other game his opponents would walk away and leave him to play by himself...Instead of helping us all to fix things and get on with normal play he just insists on creating more problems.... (I also was kamikazed by K half a dozen times last night)

This is all wrong, I am asking you Chris, Albert, Ben "The Directorate" please do something about him > UCANA before there is no one left to play your game and buy your points with cash money on a visa card. Ucana is killing spymaster the game more than its players. Can you really not see this ? Come on guy's its your game and our game we are trying to save before it is too late!

There are leaving people about this, people are talking about quitting the game because there is no room to play anymore.
Is it really going to be 2 sic persons who are allowed to distroy such a great game and a great place to be ? I hope not.

Also killed twice in last 12 hours by KEYSERS0ZE422 with stats only achievable through a massive software glitch. The game is broken in its current state. After Monday night's repair, my stats remained what I had worked for but most on my target list moved up from low to medium and medium to high.

it's obviously rampant, obviously a few players, and obviously actionable. what more is there to say? my co-worker and i came back after a week-long business trip to all this nonsense, and he's quit. i'm sticking it out for the time being.

I don't think its fair that people are leaving the game because of this... obviously the bounties have now got out of hand too... there seem to be a lot of low levels who are getting bounties for no apparent reason.

What annoys me the worse is people referring to 'Puma' breaking the game, or 'Puma' ruining it.

You guys need to realise that there are more people in Puma than just those who you are blaming.

I have never merged, I don't have alts, I worked at my stats. If I did any of those things, I think I would have better stats that what I actually have!

I'm just a player who is in the Puma cell.

Hey Pod,

When was the last time an entire cell, and their bedfellows, tried to ruin the game for for a group of players by attacking every member in it relentlessly all weekend?

Oh wait.... that was you.....

I agree Marian... we are working really hard at playing the game the right way and its not fair to blame someone for their cell affiliation... i have never merged either, I have a decent but not outstanding kill ratio, and if you all checked me out you would see that I play the game fairly, as does Marian.

marian, I and quite a few of my fellow Puma's painfully task through every single level, getting kicked all the way.. we support each other in this, and encourage patience in each other.. we play fair, and expected to be treated in the same way....

Oh and I also agree with catsinmyfreezer with regarding it not only certain members of Puma who have alts and use them for attacks.

Yesterday, I was also attacked by the same person cats was, both Vertago1 and Snarfspy - a total of three times, so there is another example of someone hitting with their main and an alt.

Well, I am sick of being lumped in with "those who have merged."
I just merged 8, 9, 10 days ago? My Elite V, Level 40 status was earned long ago.

At the time of my merging, the numbers were outrageous and we immediately attempted to alert ilist. Until that point, all my stats, kills, leaderboard status, rank, etc. was earned on this solo account and competing against those who were merging. I consistently remained in the top 10 working Pink, with no merge, while watching others merge and kick me around (stat-wise).

I agree with those who are being hurt by being lumped in with PUMA, but I also think we need to quit lumping all those who merged since some of us just merged recently and have been trying to get these false stats removed since and have learned it is easier said than done.

PUMA i agree about the lump statement about puma and if you haven't been using this exploit by pushing the merge button 20 times REAL FAST I'm sorry to have included you in ucana's plot to ruin the game for the rest of us.

BUT UCANA was or still is your LEADER and his rain of hate and boredom must end.

WHO owns PUMA_422 http://playspymaster.com/profiles/92077
is Ucana still a director of puma?

This topic is not about Puma in general, I'm not really sure where you all have gotten this idea. All you're doing is taking this thread far off topic. This is about UCANA and SIMPLYQUA and all their ALTS (which I can almost promise you, is what this KEYSER person is) ruining the game. Normal merging is fine, a lot of us have done it (not me personally, I actually only have one account) and have played well within the rules.

I'm sorry to Puma if it seems you've been lumped into the same group as these two horrible people. I know quite a few of you are good, honest people who care about the game as much as the rest of us.

Lets try and get this back on topic and save the game before its taken from us.

Edit: Yeah, I just realized the topic actually does have Puma in it, so that's where you got the idea from LOL. But rest assured this is directly at the two people mentioned above and anyone who supports their actions as of recently.

The idea behind puma is a Christmas tree with Ucana being the fairy on the top, 10 directors under him and each director has 10 deputies. Over time and when trained each deputy recruits 10 more and so on.

Here's my info... It was minutes from the rest... We all were watching it happen seconds apart. If you want people to quit this game, you are on the right track... It was bad enough that the previous nights goof up took almost half my stuff, 900 wins/300 losses from my Dossier and didn't give me any money like some received (those millions)... I was crushed and UCANA, along with his 20+ alternate identities are just the icing on the cake. I've had it... and my SM messages touch 24K+ people. Talk about getting the word around... Lose that if you wish, it's up to you! Including my screenshot...

ATI_SDVOSB

No Bounty was put on me... But I was suicided 7 times in 2 hours by UCANA and his alts... I did notice that I received a tap right before he Suicided, so either that was his alt taping or he is coordinating his suicide missions with a buddy. ???? That is for us to guess and for the Directorate to find out...

KEITH AND BEN, there's a EASY cleanup yall can do to fix a lot of the stats.

Hire Mercenaries and insurance and ARE STUCK and permanent on many merged accounts, this is whats causing KEYSERS0ZE422 to have more spymasters than he should.

also i would suggest removing any accounts points over say 1 million or maybe suicide is just stuck on KEYSERS0ZE422 i don't know about the suicide getting stuck or not but im sure you can look at the account and tell.

I've been giving it some thought and I've now decided to leave the game. There's no fun left. I deleted about 20 mins ago.

As soon as I realised that spreading out my assets now has no value I also realised that three months work was also of no value. So it was for nothing.

Yes, I did 'game' the system. This 'game' was a killer for me - it was like finding a cheat code and then losing interest.

So goodbye and good luck with the game.

The silence from iList is deafening. This is like talking to a brick wall anymore. A few have already quit and more will surely follow, fix your game or lose the ones who helped you get where you are today.

I'm not gonna quit, even after un-joining my clan. The $ will balance out shortly, the swiss and the black market will see to that. Homeostasis of the spymaster economy is not far away.

oh look, ucana and his alts again.

KEYSERS0ZE422 collected the £3.2M bounty you placed on Sm0ke422.

So much for not interacting with each other.

I didn't realise there was a limit to how many times you could kill someone....checking TOS. No, nope, it doesn't say that anywhere. If so, everyone in Zone would be history.

I also guess, that he who yells the loudest and the most profanely is who gets listened to. So, here you go. BAN THIS!


Oh, and you just banned the first account to receive the New Shield for most collection of bounties. I asked you guys to take Kamikase off the boards for use in Bounties, but you left it. So, I adopted the practice as did others. Just using the tools provided by SM.

You are all sheep being led to the sluaghter,..except you Qua,..I love you !,...but the rest of you,..for shame !..it is a game,.for crying out loud,..and I am the one constantly accused of taking it too seriously !,..I am just doing what is neccassary for me to have fun,..no more,..no less,..well,...maybe a little more now and then,...but come on,..now really,...is it that big of a deal,..?
I could have hidden my account for months and waited for this to all blow over ,..but no !,...I intentionally was trying to draw out bloggys little secret,..that he seems to have forgotten to mention,..amongst all the others that have been developed and put to sleep over the course of the last month in which far more people than I were ever doing this technique,..and all we are doing is pushing buttons that have been put before us ,...? Is it our fault,..or the people who put the buttons there,..? Or the people who did not make sure that those buttons all functioned correctly,..before making us endure such drama and lameness,...not cool,..EPIC FAIL !

I also am becoming more and more fond of 140 WAR

140 Mafia

Ninja Clash

FFS

and many other fine games that do not make you feel like you are doing something wrong for accelling at them,..when it is through the games own flaws that the benifits are arising,..so what happened to the theme of Spy's and sabotage,.and hacking swiss banks and all the other tasks that you all are so blindly push away at,..while the true rememberable story is being written as we speak,.by us all,...as we whine and bitch and moan,..that its not fair,...that it needs to be fixed,..that I got assassinated playing a game about assassinations,...and my personal favorite,..Jescalan the author of the be all end all guide to how to play this game,..tweeting me to stop stealing his Microwave Denial System,..cause he uses it to make money,...as at the time he was an advisary,...OK,..I'll do that,..it would seem that we at PUMA have boughten you all now your fair share of microwaves and them some,...you hypocritical fickle short sighted don't even know that there is a box that can be thunk out off sheep need to go lay down and die,..or try solitaire ,..or mine sweep,..those are fun,..basically,..fix your game ilist,..and if that means getting rid of me,..then so be it,..but make up your mind,..the sheep are getting restless,...Bahahahahahahahahaha!

Image for the above message from Ucana.

You are only doing what is necessary "for YOU to have fun" and you care less about the game, the people who play it or the ones who provide it. Karma. It's staring right at you and you can't see it. The way we play games in unreal gaming worlds tend to reflect the way we lead our lives. I feel nothing but sadness for you, you can't even see the harm that you've done.

it was interesting to read (in another topic) that ucana said something about not being remembered for the rules we keep.

this being said, i feel ucana (and his buddy?) is deliberately sabotaging the game.
it might be true that he didn't find the glitch, but he also has stated, "I could have hidden my account for months and waited for this to all blow over."
This statement (in my mind) reveals that he has other intentions to ruin the game play for other players.

Others might have found the glitch, and others might have benefited from it secretly, but to deliberately sabotage the game, is simply unacceptable.

blaming others while not taking responsibility for one's action is also wrong.

@directorate, i have read this issue was brought to your attention several weeks ago, but nothing was done. if this is true, you guys are also responsible.

-taebin

Yay, shoot'em straight kungfutactics @BRNTBEER ! First round is on me,..where are we going,...#banucana #422

Pod wrote "the issue isn't about merging it's about FAKE STATS and using the MERGE EXPLOIT pushing the button 20 times real fast to gain millions of FREE POINTS and TRILLIONS of spymaster dollars and using that to destroy the game."

I disagree. This is about the bigger issue of multiple accounts as well as the merge exploit. I don't feel I am diluting the thread but adding to it when I bring up the multiple accounts issue. None of this would have happened if the Merge Accounts functionality had not been enabled. When that occured, the game strategy changed. Instead of trying to build one main account, everyone wanted to reach E5 and the merge was a tool to save losing all your hard work to get to level 40. But you see, the Directorate made the rule that you lose all your assets to become Elite. Players were just trying to do what comes natural by protecting their assets. I don't blame anyone for that. But thats what Beta testing is about--to discover problems with the game. Problems have cropped up now. GREAT! The merge button Exploit was discovered. Spectacular!

After that bug is fixed then the Directorate will need to mull over whether they want to allow merging and multiple accounts. Then some clear rules will be set so we know how to proceed. Truely I feel for you players that have 5 accounts. You worked hard on each of them I'm sure (unless you used a bot :) ).

But the Elite button is for people with integrity to use--to take the loss of assets and go further in the game by starting off again with nothing. I never pushed that button (maybe I don't have what it takes to go elite). But I felt that I had way too many assets that I couldn't part with them. A game strategy I took.

The concept of "ELITE Status" has been damaged. E5 means nothing. The badge means nothing. That is sad. Because there are players who actually got there the hard way and earned it. They deserve respect. But now the game is broken.

I want a ruling from the Directorate on multiple accounts along with this bug issue.

I thought Manitoba S. was also Ucana and I'm being hit by him. And th3saboteur is that you Ucana? Anyone know. I hardly feel worthy of a 2.1 Million dollar bounty... but then you all have endless anounts to spend, correct?

No th3saboteur is not Ucana and why don't you feel you are worth 2.1 million? I won a few bounties and thought I would spread my love to Zone.

Well, thanks for the love, but as a matter of fact I'm getting so much love right now I can hardly breathe.... lolol And Manitoba S. WAS supposed to be Ucana and if so, how is he still hitting me?

It seems if they block his IP addy, that would solve the immediate problem. But I'm sure he's found a way to block them. Oh joy, he is having so much fun... and can't begin to understand why we aren't? Give me a break. Karma. Coming for those who deserve it good and bad.

It does seem that the name Puma is now poison. There are some genuine players still attached to the clan but the whole structure of the clan makes them toys in Ucana's personal power game. I always thought the structure of one person 'dictating' over a clan was an uneasy one.

I encourage the remaining genuine players, such as MK, to join other clans or start a new clan. Join Thundercats if you're still on good terms with your old friends, join Zone if you're comfortable there, join Freedom Fighters if you're up for a challenge, join LAOS if you can speak Korean. But get out now.
