Offender: Phizzo
When: 09Sep08 2100 EST (ish, match was > 0.5 hrs)
Server: Nachos & Beer
Map: Temple of Boom
Description:
ut2004 stats match # 40235120
Major idling. I think some others can back me up on this (I don't want to put anybody on the spot, but someone said they would...), though the server logs will probably be a better reference. Apparently, Phizzo changes his name, because he doesn't show up in the ut2004 stats log for this match. Best I can tell he is "Player 20" due to most of his kills coming from redeemers. Oddly, the log does not show him connecting, though I specifically remember one of his deemers going off right at the start of the vines objective.
Once we got to the sewers (with the 3 hold objectives), I noticed he was idling. Just standing there. I believe he was idling until the deemer was due to respawn, because he would disappear for a moment, fire the deemer, then go back to idling in the hall. I never saw his name show up on the kill scroll other than the deemer firings, though it is possible I missed it.
Later on in the last room, I noticed him idling again. This time staring at the ceiling in front of the teleport. I have multiple screenshots across almost 3 minutes of him in this EXACT position, looking in exactly the same direction.
The name thing in the log seems very strange to me. Not sure what is going on there, but I am going to watch that player ID to see if the associated name changes.
In an unrelated gripe, is there anything that can be done about players that have mid to largely negative scores well into the game? I am talking about -10 in 25 minutes; stuff like that. I realize some maps induce negative scores, but I have noticed a lot of matches getting very lopsided due to these players grouping up. Not fun for anybody.
