Bowing out (not gracefully)

Written by Rotational Symmetry at 15:04 27/4-2015

  I've messed up, or been messing up....
  I have had a scout team from which I found some talents and this has become apparent to the authorities. Not the local ones who give out 10k but the ones that spend a lot of time doing great work for this excellent game.
  
  I think part of me carried on scouting with a second team knowing there was a risk I'd get caught but knowing that I spend too much time in the game. I perhaps saw it as a way to stop playing which wouldn't rely on my will power. That's no way to justify cheating though....
  
  Sorry to you all, and particularly everyone who spends time developing, managing and improving the game.
  
  I blame a combination of greed and my wretched talent scout who never gave me anyone any good!

  Good to see you did get caught and nice to confess publicly. Come back with a new team and play it cleanly, everyone deserves a second chance.

Nikoline at 02:34 3/5-2015
  Kick the cheaters out!

V02maXXers at 19:40 2/5-2015
  No harm done. However, in a symbolic sense, every spend online minute of this account is a disgrace to the game.

English Sprinting Team at 19:23 2/5-2015
  It's not Olivers fault he's not been banned. He could easily sign up for races, but he doesn't.

NightmareChaos at 16:25 2/5-2015
  and here you are active. So much for banning. Time to get myself another team too

Rotational Symmetry at 14:07 2/5-2015
  What do you mean by 'can't stop'? My team is hardly a hive of activity! I don't see why I shouldn't keep an eye on the game and the forum before the account is deactivated.

BrokenChain at 13:48 2/5-2015
  i thought you were leaving? Guess even caught cheaters can't stop...

Gradient Levellers at 10:17 29/4-2015
  Shame. Was looking forward to competing with you in the English rankings. Coming back with a new team is always an option.

Schiavi di Don at 14:15 28/4-2015
  Shame the game will have to go on without your awesome team name up the ranks. It's nice to see you confess instead of disappearing, I wish more caught cheaters did that.

Opium Fueled at 00:00 28/4-2015
  I just noticed you copied my jersey.
  You'll probably be back with another team, just do it cleanly next time;)


Super Velo at 21:05 27/4-2015
  Isn't this like a 2 year ban? No, sorry, thats the UCI, they give out 2 year suspensions for doping. Maybe they should start doing that in OCM? Or better yet, lock the team kick all the riders off (so that they don't go to waste) and let em start all over but with no money... Go figure...
