Farming wins for Top player?

I was looking at the rankings and noticed razattack1337 has 140 wins, when I went through his games list I also noticed that they are all pretty much 1v1s that ended within 2 minutes and resulted in a win for him. Maybe it's just a bug or is there a way to just farm wins? If so I hope that it will be corrected soon.

I was up all night playing 2v2s with my friend, won 15/15 matches and we are really hoping to get a good ranking. If people are indeed farming wins it kinda just takes the fun out of winning for the rest of us...

All the stats are wrong. Personnaly I have win match reporte as lost, match that I never played, duplicate matchs reported as custom Lost, win match never reported in the stats... I think you can ignore the pantheon/ranking until it will be fixed. I really hope then all stats will be reseted. No point to keep track of falses stats.

 

EDIT: Just gave a look at the stats of the player, it's really suspicious. Look like some exploit of the stats bugs (or the guy is really lucky and get a won game duplicated 10-20x).

Please, fix the stats an reset them!

But something like 20 games with same settings reported as 1-2 min match win, It's really suspicious, all the same days and fellowing. If it was disconnection, well you give up and dont try all the day.

 

 

EDIT:

The fun thing it's like the 2 and 3 top players have the same 'bug' with the same map, same gametype. Looks more like an exploit.

Its pretty easy to farm wins against AI in custom games just by altering the game settings (speed = fast etc). I believe that they are rewriting the code so this won't be possible, and no doubt they'll reset the stats once the system's changed.

I just looked again and each game has a timer as to when it started, each match is within minutes of the next one so I dont think the game time is being displayed wrong.

 

Also if it was just some crazy disconnects, I think I'd get tired of trying after ohh the 40th disconnect in a row. =P

In the future, Custom games are going to probably have to become unranked. The data can still be there but wins and losses won't matter since there's ao many ways to expoit it.

Games that last less than 5-10 minutes(maybe 8.  Really need to see how fast 2 really good players can beat 2 noobs.  Even if people are really bad, the towers still have 5.4k health each and citadel has a ton to take down.  So only other way to legit win is disconnects.. except AI takes over) shouldn't even be counted.

Awe that's a shame, me and my buddy have gotten really good playing together and wanted to "be the best". lol, I can understand though why it would be a hard issue to address. Guess we'll get some info on the clan thing and try to rank well there once it is open.

He is probably setting up the custom game verses an easy AI and setting the starting level to 20 with a bunch of gold then just destroying the citidal or fortresses or whatever game type his is playing.  Slaughter set to 1?  Something like that.
