We would like to preface this post with a warning to the community – This could happen to anyone. Most, if not all army discords use bots. ACP is conducting our own investigation that we assure everyone we are taking extremely seriously – there is a possibility though that these weren’t leaked but were indeed “hacked” through the use of bot tokens. Please take the necessary precautions to secure your chats – such as ensuring your discord accounts are safe and making sure the bots invited can be trusted.
entire community knows it’s happening. Especially with the rogue event trend, there isn’t always a clear
distinction between rogue and actual troops. I try my best to make sure we have a countable max –
any penguin doing the emote + penguins wearing the uniform are counted in our maxes. Screenshots
from a month ago, some from March 1st were taken. CPAM has worked hard to ensure the TT is fair
for everyone, but my apologies if some of our sizes claimed were ‘inflated’.
recounted all of ACP’s pictures, giving us a much lower max, without recounting any of RPF and HF’s.
recounted and RPF’s weren’t. In addition, we just had a battle with the PZF, in which we believed
we were (unfairly) awarded 2 tactic points, tying with the PZF despite having better tactics and
formations. (Full post: https://www.thearmyofcp.com/2020/04/acp-vs-pzf-battle-in-review_2.html)
one of the screenshots:
points were poorly given, we felt that CPAM held bias against us. The comments on “RPF would get
away with it” was in reference to the fact that RPF pictures were not recounted but ACP ones were.
formation and inauguration of CPAM. My statement was in regards to helping them set up in a way
that resembled CPAC, especially in the regard of posting.
HCom chat to be leaked – all I wanted to do was, to a great extent, bring what I learnt from SMAC/CPAC into CPAM and model CPAM after something that has proved to be successful.
– talked to Ayan and he has taken efforts to make the TT fairer for all.)
- Trash-talking RPF: We were recently part of CPAM’s Premier League tournament, and our greatest opponents were the RPF. All the “**** RPF” sentiments were part of that – trash-talking or whatnot is quite common – and to hype everything up, we trash-talked the enemy. I’m sure similar sentiments against ACP have occured in RPF chats; I’m sure the rest of the community can sympathize when I say – trashing the enemy is not uncommon when a battle is approaching.
- ACP is proud to bring all troops to battle: I think this speaks volumes to what kind of army ACP is. We are proud to bring our entire army to every battle – RPF brought their staff team vs. smaller armies, but ACP’s philosophy was that we should respect the smaller armies and bring our entire force. (RPF has elaborated on their philosophy to me – and I can respect their reasoning). If PZF forfeited, ACP would automatically win, with 3 tactic points – however, we still urged PZF to come because we want to fight the tournament honorably. ACP doesn’t wish for wins to be handed to us. We could have easily taken the auto-win and full tactic points – but instead, we urged Retro to come on, and ended with 2 tactic points instead. (It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that Max was joking about the server thing.)
screenshots look incriminating. I would be happy to discuss any of the above with anyone who is
interested in knowing more about the situation.
One of the reasons we recently went independent was to move away from the drama of the
community as well as the tournament “hostility” built against our opponents. This is something
that was already set in motion by our higher command in hopes to foster a more positive,
ACP-centered community.
comments made and sincerely hopes that the public takes time to read and understand our
side of the story. I welcome any DMs regarding the situation.
