This seems very odd...

Looks like a trade to me. I recall reading this as the way to "trade players". If you have a player worth 10K and I do too, we can list them both as 1Mil a peice and we buy each others players. No one else will bid 1Mil for a 10K player, so the two people in the trade are garaunteed to get the player they want and its an even swap of dollars.
I also read that you should notify a GM or something because it does seem sketchy, but it can be allowed.

could look like a trade but trades should only happen between two highly skilled and valued players, not players in the kind of value that these two have. Also, when doing a trade, you kind of overpay for the player, trying to avoid any outsider from putting a bid on the players, but never for that much. 30M is just crazy, think about the agent fees involved in a deal like this...
Finally, take a look at this: Quote:

same IP, I think it's blatant cheating in some way and should be reported... In fact, I will do just that right now... FM

Well, FM... Not that I don't mind turning in cheaters... but, um... Quote:
they could both be students at the same school. Also, they are division V and VI in turkey. Both are relatively new (12/05 and 01/06). It almost seems like an artificial way to get your teams in the top transfers..  |

maybe, but still looked shady enough. Players at 500 and 1000 TSI shouldn't sell for that kind of money, even in a trade... Oh well, they're in Turkey, I doubt they'll track me down  FM

If it is cheating, what purpose would it serve? Swapping 2 lousy players and each paying a silly amount of agent fees doesn't serve like cheating to me.

Perhapst another party is the team getting the the mother club or last club money on those deals. edit: Both players have been sold only once before. Their motherclubs both use IP 144.122.***.***. Again, nothing conclusive though. Last edited by Masked : 03-21-2006 at 10:41 AM. |

wow, didn't even think of that. Gotta say I was starting to feel very cheap and silly for reporting it but look at this now: Quote:
and now: Quote:
here's that same start of IP address again... Must be a very popular game in that school  So, 30M U$ at 2% is what, 600k. Hrm, could be a reason, not the brightest but could have gone unnoticed... FM

That school caused me no end of problems when I was a GM. I was basically in charge of Turkey, Israel and a few other small countries. Definitly go ahead and report them. I wouldnt be surprised either way it ends up either clueless newbies who have already been dealt with or blatent cheating.
