Wordfeud League of Honour

I forwarded the shot to the judge because you said you hadn´t sent the invite but I could not spot any difference between your un and the one which the invite came from. I was hoping he may see something, also I thought it sensible for you to have sight of the shot in case you could see any difference and the judge is in a position to forward it to you. It would seem from your post that you have not identified any variation between your un and the one in the invite and nor has the judge. If a player is trying to hijack a un it is important that people are aware.

Thanks for your advice re rejecting/blocking; I am very familiar with the workings of things but I am sure there are people in the league who will find it helpful.

I have the screenshot because I took it when I received an invite from the un gorgeousgeorgie; the shot is taken at the point of invite - no pic shows up at that stage.

A un cannot be duplicated in WF. If you didn´t send the invite then it must have been sent by someone who has access to your log in details for WF - maybe you can shed some light?

The un in the invite I received yesterday appears to match yours exactly but (I know this will surprise/disappoint you:))I am not infallible; I have sent the shot of the invite to the judge so he can take a look. I have asked that he forward it to you so that you can also check it. There may be a nuance that I am missing.

Maybe we will get to the bottom of it but if nothing else I hope this incident helps players understand one of the reasons for the stringency around uns matching on WF exactly as listed in their WLoH group:) Happy holidays to all!

@gorgeousgeorgie ty v much for inviting me to play and apologies for declining. Nothing personal - I play v few friendlies and intend playing less at least in the holiday season.

In the same way that you are not familiar with my history re trying to help the player that has generated these exchanges it would seem that you not familiar with the judge´s nor with other people´s involvement. As for being the judge - that amuses me:)

You have already been warned about accusing other players, now you wrongly accuse me of dishonesty. You should be aware it was towards another member I would exclude you.

I note you have not responded to my post re my personal choice.

You are incorrect Georgie and there was not a decision to make re an apology. Maybe you are confusing with something else but PA stood for personal assistant. What is offensive about that? Considering your record of wrongly accusing another member and extreme rudeness by WF chat with no provocation I suggest you concentrate on your own behaviour. You still make no valid point for me to address, stop wasting my time please.

I think I am perfectly entitled to withdraw my ´labour´. I also think it is very reasonable to have suggested that the player assimilates the rules and understands processes before progressing to multiple uns.

I stand resolutely alongside my post and the judge.

There is nothing harsh about my comments Georgie and you give no specific reason why you think this. I was trying to gain information with the intent of determining exactly what the issue is. Some of my questions have been ignored, as was my offer of practical help. Administrators are chosen for specific reasons and I ask you to respect the way I deal with things, I usually have information you are not aware of. We are similar to referees in a sporting event. Players are not customers but competitors. There is never a need to be rude but I should not be expected to always be nice either, in fact certain situations require I am not. I have in no way been personal, only focused on dealing with the issue at hand. If you wish to take a pop at me please state a valid reason to justify your accusation or it will be viewed as interference.

"@judge @tidfil You know my opinion is fair but I have to agree with catjessy. You may not realise it but your comments were harsh. I was embarrassed for you when I read them. I know it can be frustrating but it´s obvious that the user is struggling... But at all times she/he is apologetic and polite. I think an apology is in order judge "

@leigh I have put time and energy into advising you on more than 1 occasion, in more than 1 group and in response to posts from more than 1 of your uns. You either chose to ignore/didn´t understand the advice you were offered but did take heed of advice from an alleged message in-game from an unnamed opponent.

You have been offered a plethora of advice from several sources but it would seem it was wasted. Players and the WLoH team made considerable efforts in attempts to resolve your issues with scant effect. You have received an inordinate amount of support from several sources - if other players required similar it would be impossible to sustain. The judge even offered you practical help to which you responded truculently.

I am minded to donate no more of my time to you on a direct basis because it would appear to be pointless. My last info has recently been posted in div 8 group 54 where you have also been posting. It was intended more to help the community in general rather than you personally.

I strongly suggest that, rather than trying to play with multiple uns, your time would have been better spent reading and assimilating the rules and understanding how everything works which you evidently do not.

I see nothing rude/harsh about the judge´s post. He certainly offered more help than I would have done in his position and it amounted to a PA service. Ultimately players are responsible for managing their own uns.

The un matching requirements are there for more than 1 reason including convenience but also players´ security.

Once again I appreciate your time and effort .

Catjessy, we have rules for a reason and they make the fun possible. An incorrect un can often cause confusion and inconvenience for other league members and wordfeud users. We spent more than enough time trying to assist Leigh in a situation we don´t strictly need to. It is perfectly acceptable to immediately remove a un not found in wordfeud. I may decide we go back to that procedure soon following the large amount of extra work it has been causing recently in not doing so.

I fail to see how I have been harsh or rude. I am required to apply the rules in a competition. I have been objective in trying to figure out what the problem is and solving it. I think my questions, instructions and actions are relevant and fair.

I am just a player like yourself who attempts to help keep things running smoothly. I do not go to all this effort because I enjoy conflict, I do it because I also like having fun playing wordfeud with my friends in a well run league and see the need for rules and organisation. I am grateful the majority of members support and help to achieve this, it wouldn´t be possible without that. If you wish to give negative feedback or highlight something you don´t agree with it would be helpful to explain further and give a more detailed reason for your opinion.

If you want to continue dialogue my subject preference would be establishing why you chose to follow the advice you claim came from an opponent while disregarding what you had officially been told here. Also the seemingly random change of un to Leigh M1108 and why you would think that resolved the issue. I don´t know how we can make it any clearer that your username on here has to be identical to one you own in Wordfeud.

I would also like to check you have declared your multiple usernames on the sign up page, as specified in the rules?

Thank you Steve w and Tydfil for your help.

Judge, I realise I have been a bit slow to get what the issue was and I apologise for that but I really think some of your messages were a bit harsh.

You can change one of these to Leigh M1108 which you do seem to own in wordfeud, that is fine. Please deactivate the other account unless you have a 3rd username you own that you wish to use. It is very important you do not enter again with an incorrect un. If you would like assistance just ask. I will even set it up correctly for you if you like?

Just to be clear, you are currently participating as leighla1108 in div 8 group 54. That is now the only group you can play this season.

Leigh M, I am going to make this very simple for you. If you are not sure which rule you have broken simply read the rules page. It states you must own the username in wordfeud if you wish to participate with it here. You should already know that, when you couldn´t find a un in your group tydfil advised you:

´Hi Leigh M..... if a un isn´t found you don´t play an alternative; See the rules page (full of useful info) which explains that the computer deals with not started/unfinished games at the turn of the season:)´

You acknowledged that message. It was season 88 and you had entered 3 usernames into the league. Leigh M....., Leigh M and Leighla1108. I would like to know whether you are claiming you didn´t understand Tydfils post or just decided it didnt apply to you and you were going to ignore?

I do not appreciate the time my team and I donate into doing this being purposefully wasted. How could changing your name in wordfeud to Leigh M1108 resolve the issue? That does not tally with any of the 3 usernames you registered with us. What reasoning or logic did you use when stating that?

I am removing the 2 uns not found in wordfeud from the group they are in and deactivating them. If you wish to continue with the 3rd username I require you to answer the questions I pose above.

Do not reactivate those usernames unless you own the name in wordfeud. If you enter the league with a wrong username again you will be banned. If you would like any assistance please describe exactly what it is you are trying to achieve and one of us will advise you.

Now, slightly harder ... Are you playing in two groups? If so you´ll also need to setup another WF user to match your username in your other group (and have one or more devices that enable you to play with multiple WF users).

Good luck, and do post back if unsure. Ta, Steve

It is unfortunate when players fail to abide by the rules. I´m still hoping that Leigh M will correct the situation.

My advice to you is to concentrate upon your other games within the group.

The winner gets promoted. I feel pretty confident that poolar28 ends up as the winner here.
