Ok I know I did some very stupid things: I kept my cities out of civil disorder and boosted a little bit my production. Now I know it was false but I saw no other opportunity. I know it isn't an excuse but I was never good in containing the disorder and it always bothered me seeing all my productive cites going into anarchy. Yes, I build temples,...I used entertainers, I stationed troops, I raised the luxury rate and those damn citizens always go into disorder. Perhaps I'm just not good enough to handle these situations but it was just too much for me to see the others bumping out techs and units like mad while I have to fight my own citizens the whole day. Luxury rate where sky high, no tax-income, techrate was at 20 turns or something and citizens even revolt I mean where is the fun in such a game? Therefore I saw no other opportunity as to artificially contain order however the combat results were true and NOT falsified in any way.
I think I did it because I felt I'm a newbie here and saw all the veteran players knowing everything so I thought I've to cheat to stand a chance against them I know it was silly and I feel very sorry about it.
Don't know if I continue the games well not sure if anybody would want me in any game further. However I hope you will forgive me.
Thanks
Yours truly

The horror, the horror
It's nice to see you finally admit it Overlord. I guess that the results of the files I was loading were correct after all 
...you seem to have enjoyed an extrodinary run of luck then. I can't see how you could have physically conqured both Yellow Lodge and Grand Huron in your last turn - the best I can manage from your starting position is empyting both cities and capturing one of them. There simply aren't enough units and movement points available to do everything which you did.
Seeing as you lied to me about the production and city revolts, I see no reason whatsoever to believe that you didn't cheat on the combat results as well.

Here is my email adress: knapowski_seabee@crane.navy.mil and also knapowski@bluemarble.net
Can we continue our discussion via email, you sent me your two email adresses a while back during the "unfortunate incident" but I cant seem to find them. Also do you ever Instant messanger like AIM or ICQ?
We need to have a talk about this whole thing, and you need to make sure you tell us about everything you did and tell us why you are NOT going to ever do it again. I really enjoy the hell out of playing with you! My goal is to get you to give up the error of your ways (cheating) and still participate as a clean player.
Are you some kind of a computer whiz or something? How did you figure out to change happiness? Dont tell me here send me an email.
Send me an email OK?
I think you have taken a step in the right direction, hopefully it will continue.

Hello people, I'm trying to save the game.
I want to continue the game, but with some "modifications" made to it. (e.g. reïnforcing the Dutch again, since they were the victim of his cheating, disbanding some French units, ...)
I don't know yet who is going to do it. (because I can't)
And we also need another player to play the French. In the first place, I thought of Patient English (since he's a warmonger), but someone else can play it too.

I don't know if any modifications are necessary, but you can if you want. The solution I thought of was simply making peace, letting me repopulate Belgium, and we go about our business.
After all, all the free units he made are already dead.

As far as doing it again.... the Overlord was a new account for Imperial-Markus, who has already been caught cheating.

You confirmed this? I thought it was a hunch. Do they have the same IP, or is it just the quit/registration date and his country? 
Confirmed it.

Maybe... maybe not in this game but I'm convinced that your attack on Odessa in ZWK could only have been from a rules edit. C'mon, admit it, I'll be less mad if you don't lie.
Well, perhaps he just played 'FMK style'.
Wow. Well, let's see what he says to that.

Is Overlord going to get a ban for this? Do you know how long?
Also expect a PM from me in the next 24 hours or so I would like to discuss this situation with you.
Thanks!

Thunderfall just contacted me to say that 'The Overlord' has been perma-banned. His IP adress matched that of 'The Paladin', who in turn is Markus's DL.
BTW, France is in a pretty dire situation - even if you delete all the units Overlord created (and there are a lot of them), The French economy is on the point of collapse.

The Paladin has been perm-banned for quite some time now.
I actually asked I-M if the Overlord was his DL and he said yes. The Paladin was also him, not 'his brother'. With the DL's he has made and the fact that he tried to have two log-ins playing in the same game I would say he should never be allowed to play in another PBEM game (my personal opinion).

How did you ask him? I've PM'ed and emailed him a couple of times over the past months and got no response.
I guess that's the difference between being a poster and a Moderator. I think he basically knew that if he didn't respond it would be worse then responding. Lesser of two evils.

Jeez, thats now, what, three SWIns pbems, a couple of zwk games, and several others that have been ruined, by one or the other? THAT is a disgrace. I wasn't angry at Overlord before, but now there is no excuse.
