The Binding Coil of Bahamut, Act 2: Tail Slap is frontal, guys.

[Judai]

I've been wondering that about the honey as well. If you don't feed the honey the first time, will he give another person honey? And then if he does will two bees spawn instead of one?

You can feed immediately, if you can push it down fast enough.

Following the implementation of Patch 2.2, we have identified several parties that used illegitimate practices in “The Second Coil of Bahamut”. As this is a violation of the Terms of Service, 24 service accounts that used such illegitimate practices in “The Second Coil of Bahamut - Turn 3” have been suspended.

※As of April 1, 2014 at 1:00 a.m., only two parties have legitimately completed “The Second Coil of Bahamut - Turn 3”. Game data since then has been closely monitored.

Although we will continue to monitor game data to ensure that similar illegitimate practices are not being used, we would like to remind players that using third-party programs, parsers, or other tools to conduct actions players would not normally be able to do in the game is a violation of the Terms of Service, and will be dealt with strict disciplinary action.

Players who discover any confirmed cheats should, under no circumstances, exploit or disseminate such information. Instead, we ask that players file a report by using the in-game command [System Menu] -> [Support Desk] -> [Contact Us] -> [Report Cheating].

Get shit on.

Would rather read "terminated" than "suspended"

So dumb we cant use parsers

You can use parsers.

Just don't talk about parsers.

[Kaslo]

Ya'll act like that 3rd party language with reference to parsers isn't boilerplate at this point.

[OWS_Tonx]

anyone have an idea of what that 'cheat' was?

[Edelweiss]

Position hacks probably, just like with what people were doing in Turn 5.

[Rocl]

probably altering your z-axis to high enough to be out of range but close to cast/shoot

[Deadgye]

Nah we're fine.

Although we will continue to monitor game data to ensure that similar illegitimate practices are not being used, we would like to remind players that using third-party programs, parsers, or other tools to conduct actions players would not normally be able to do in the game is a violation of the Terms of Service, and will be dealt with strict disciplinary action.

calculator: the old school parser

[Hiryo]

Still waiting for someone to shop that "bad cop" GM parsing interrogation over a scene from CSI:SVU.

Has BG posted their Proof of Kill yet, or are they still dancing around that?

[Rocl]

Unsure of what you mean by proof of kill but http://bluegarter.guildwork.com/ has Turn 9 pics

[TheDirtyHobo]

I'm pretty sure their proof of kill is the picture of someone dead in T4.

Well, when we've just had an announcement about 24 players illegitimately getting past Turn 8, any pictures showing that they're in Turn 9 as "proof of kill" kinda become null and void. They don't show any screenshots of themselves in an empty arena or follow the same formula for posting about their Turn 8 kill that they did with Turn 6 and 7, just poorly cropped pictures of "Player X rolls ## on Loot Y."

[TheDirtyHobo]

Standing in an empty arena means literally nothing. You'd be able to stand there after you got the kill even if you were using position tools. Stop with the conspiracy theories. If they cheated on it, the got suspended and the news of it will be out soon enough.

They said there are 2 groups that have legitimately cleared it so far. Given BG was the first to legitimately beat Twin, before the twister nerfs even, it's not too much of a stretch to think they could be one of those two groups.

[MisterBob]

Considering all eyes are on them and SE obviously monitors higher end raiding content, I doubt BG is stupid enough to hack/cheat through Turn 8.

The banned people are clearly those morons from that unknown guild that somehow had the Turn 8 achievements before everyone else.

BG has 2 clear groups. Safe to bet both clears are from BG.

Can confirm no player in Blue Garter is banned.
