When i see lists like this i am definitely nervous to get in on these games. makes me think these guys are teaming up and that theres no way it will play fair. Am i the only one who won't join these games for the same reason?

Not necessarily... I mean, obviously if it turns out that there's collusion or game-throwing, that's a different story, but I've played both those guys and they seem like alright fellas, not the sort of guys who'd be up to anything shady. Besides, we're still small enough that you're going to see a lot of the same faces in a lot of games, especially at the higher ranks.

it really depends upon the players in question. Ironically, as you get into the good player category, you can actually count on fair games more as you join with the same players over and over. When you end up in a game with all good players its virtually guaranteed, because they can spot suspect moves, even slightly suspect ones, so you end up with the most fair game possible.

To be clear: I am not insinuating anything about the two particular guys in those games. I have just noticed over the past couple of weeks this type of thing, where two people create 5 to 10 games, and it just weirds me out a bit.

i get where you're coming from, totally Nick.. and i agree...
seeing that, is intimidating, and if i didn't know those two players
(having played in games with them both) i'd likely be nervous joining those games too. {nod}

I guess you accidentally forgot that last bit, but I fixed it for ya! :)
