Please be advised that there is some player that is impersonating a particular player by substituting a "1" for a "l" in the players name.
By vigilant, the ladder rules are very clear, a players name in the lobby and staging room must be identical, character for character, to there registered Civ4players Ladder name. If they aren't don't expect the ladder admins to process non-reports from that game or any disputes that game is void.

To make it more clear: Someone is impersonating me. His gamespy nickname is:
"everybodysdar1ing" ("1" instead of "l")
Please do not play with him any ladder games, because he is not allowed to have a ladder account under this nick.
And if you play a fun game with him, kick his ass first, then tell him greetings from the real ebd. Cheers.

cutNpaste the player name in the game/staging lobby-
cutNpaste it into the "find member" section of the ladder page when you search for player.
that, and stop using names with letters and numbers that can be played on.

I saw that too Tony. Seems the only way you can tell between the real one and impersonator is if you're in c4f. The impersonator does not have a "-tk" after their name like all the other screen names. Talk about a troublesome hack.

Just played with a goof today, called himself ICBM. Was an anonymous FFA, at the setup screen I was sure I saw ICBM, other players were smuckey, novak, kudce, rial and dmj1975. When the game started he was anonymous as Elizabeth and started bitc*ing and whining about everyone playing faster. End turns end turns bullsh*t. Then he said his name was really 1CBM or lCBM rather than ICBM - made a big deal of 1/l/I as being a different player. Totally confusing. He quit the game after some colourful commentary and said he would not be reporting. I've played with the real ICBM before and found him to be a righteous dude, so is this an impersonator?

"Just played with a goof today, called himself ICBM. " ect.
YOU JUST HAVE TO DO THOSE SCREENSHOTS 1 in lobby, another last turn ! Without those you can never be sure what was happening.
expecially if y play anonymous
NB.: this is only a general statement, not accusing nobody

i bet its the same guy doing all the impersonating. It would be real easy to just log onto the ladder page and find some odd name to mpersonate if all u wanted was to do was sneek in ladder games. Think like CSI guys. Whats the motive. I bet its someone you know. You have any enemys? Owe someone money? You doing someones wife?
