You can never ever prove it, that's partly the point of course, unless someone completely impartial was standing over you as you put the results into the post.

Saying 'but I showed the result to Baz' is perhaps the lamest attempt to prove non-cheating I've ever heard.

Whatever.

Our point is that you can't prove that there was cheating either, Star. Just move on, and forget about it. Bickering about it won't help.

there is a lot of fighting over something just over the internet, which is a new opion of mine, as when I first started i was pissed off about lossing, but now its like i have seen the light, its just role playing.

As for cheating, i think i would be willing to host the AOCAF as i see cheating as dishonourable and is a shame that people do such a thing.

Until someone has proved to me through their actions that they can post scores with regularity, total impartiality, and - god forbid - perhaps a sense of style about them then, yes, they might well screw it up if they've not done it before.

CH proved to me (and hopefully everyone else) that he's a pedantic little brat during the course of that cup while Oli proved the reasons why he was only ever allowed to score himself to Cherry Cup and American Football cup victories. Needless to say I won't be voting for either of those two ever again unless their opponent is The Belmore Family.

It is about the person more than whether they've done something before, but there's nothing like experience - both for the potential host knowing what's expected of them, and for everyone else to know what the host will be doing during the cup.

Quite simply, every time you elect a host, you get what you vote for - end of story.

Then there's me, whose worst CC performance came in CC18 (hosted by Krytenia...) and who seems to actually do worse when scorinating for himself.

Impartiality's a pain in the 'arris sometimes...

95X,

The purpose of holding it after the world cup isn't for IC reasons. It's for OOC reasons. Many of us currently still have teams in the world cup, and as long as those teams are still in the cup that will be the main focus of our energy. If we do it during the Baptism of Fire there's more time to devote to the AOCAF.

As for the player with two heads feel free to do whatever you'd like.

I can see how your personal dislike of people has a strong impact on their hosting abilities. (And no, I’m not defending WC26.)
