I strongly dislike the idea of combining the old predictions of three accounts - they were clearly intended to be kept separate, and it has the potential to actually raise cbaron's score - which would be the exact opposite of punishing him
Your agenda is transparent, trying to get rid of your closest challenger! For shame. You Machiavellian bastard.
Heh :) Just kidding. Yeah, I totally understand where you are coming from. I think Carvey's doing the sensible thing, taking the latest prediction and deleting the team.
But alternatively, he could take the lowest scoring prediction for each match across each account, and that would be fair as well. Though I suspect that might be more work for Carvey, since adding the alts should make the re-scoring automatic I guess, whereas taking the lowest score would probably take manual labor.
Think there would also be the middle-ground option of splitting the difference - average out the score between taking the worst score, and the latest score. But again, would require work for Carvey.
I myself normally tend to leniency in these things, but can totally understand punishing him by taking the lowest score, or the lowest/latest average. It would seem fair - though a shame since his main is #2. But that's his own fault.
Don't agree with Kaxon's suggestion to ban all the accounts though, that IMO is unduly harsh. Taking the lowest score seems like a "beware!" warning enough, since that makes the cheating backfire quite thoroughly as is.
Anyway, perhaps let's wait and see if he comes here and tries to apologize or not. If he's classy and comes clean perhaps we could be lenient. Has someone PMed him yet?
