Reading through the youtube comments there, someone makes a claim that the same user won the same tournament a few years ago. Even without that bit of info(if it's true), I feel like you'd have to be pretty gullible to think that this time was the first time. That's a pretty big coincidence to have caught it "the one and only time" with hard evidence like that. These bad actors who go back over a decade just woke up this past weekend and decided to do something this nefarious? My guess is they've been picking their spots for years, but who knows.
it does for me. I also knew Darik a bit, and I don't think he was scamming them over the long haul. More likely as Greg says he just did somethig really dumb.
Yea I'm just seeing some of it now in one of my dynasty FF discords. Not good. I agree with everything you said on your podcast though, I've listened to you and Greg for a long time since the XM days and he seems like as straight up a dude as there is, probably part of his issue is I'm sure he sees the best in people and misses the other stuff, but I have no concerns about his character or him fixing the problems as best he can.
Wow, jaw dropping.

looks like not -- they went through it in detail here: https://nffcforums.shgn.com/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=19112
Does that cure any skepticism for you outside of this event?

BTW -- they allegedly found another instance, so maybe there's more to it still.

yeah, almost certainly there would be other contests. You hope it goes back only so far, but they'll have to find out
