Hey, I'm garments infection.

The catface is still resting in its unopened letter.
It has become one of those "bee in the bonnet"/promise to oneself thing to keep it sealed until I can wear it proudly in a specific situation so there isn't a price tag attached to it.

I might sell it for whatever I can get from it at the nearest pawn shop if I'm in dire need though.

I'm also for the "don't blame the player if the system can be rigged" but at this point it feels more like a lack of sportmanship issue rather than a "is he cheating / going legit" one.

Whatever the decision, it will set some kind of guideline for the community growing.
And the bigger we become, the more we will find players in it just for the money ...

Just a part of the response from my side and regarding his score, he probably gained the amulet then dropped it immediately, played whether an accomplice or a bad stranger, rinsed and repeated, thus the close to a multiple of 200 score and his non appearance on the leaderboards.
It's way faster to rake points when there is few players because your amulet don't decay this way (though it works only for the top amulet) and you kinda hop over the random pulling thing.

Also if you find out CD is guilty of something, I must add there was a bug in the leaderboards of the 100$ amulet, Josh's score and mine were strangely inverted. I don't know how it happened but it's very misleading. Please fix that.

Sorry I don't remember wich one but I think it did happen to me on one of the two mentionned (the zero sum game I mean). But one of them I gained 200 amulet points and the other I dropped it, that's for sure (garnments infection, I don't know if you get a log of all the games and sums played/gained).

The warning screen when joining an amulet game is cool and all but you should keep the chime for when the opponent is found.
I joined an empty game because my opponent had left before I clicked ok and the game just after that I lost my amulet because "game has timed out" or something. And I have dual screen so I seriously take pity of the guy who doesn't and has to keep an eye at all time on CM.

I also agree mostly on the "other side of the world" part.

I usually have to launch Cordial Minuet and do my stuff (good thing I'm working at home) while hoping for another player to join in the correct stakes range so I lose a lot of precious minutes just waiting for an opponent.
My personal suggestion would be a coefficient of sort decreasing the per minute loss while you're queuing while keeping the 2h inactivity timer.
The major abuse would be players queuing at empty times but the risk of being sniped and auto defeated kinda solve the whole thing from my point of view (but I'm still new to the game and the community so I'm still not aware of all the leaderboard stalking things)

I know it would kinda fix itself with a bigger community which will probably be the case with the real event but meanwhile I feel totally at a disadvantage to rake some precious points.
