Main and alt in Top 25; is it fair?

Thought this could make for a good discussion.

Currently there are two players I know of who have their main AND their alt in the top 25 right now; neither in the top 10.

My question is: Is it fair for a player to have both his or her main AND his alt in the top 25, with no intention of going for top 3 with his or her main?

I don't think so. But I'm guessing most of the responses I get will be disagreeing with me because, well, I'm Alex.

One side of the argument is that the player has worked hard with both names and deserves two spots in the top 25.

The other side would probably be that this player already has a name in the top 25, and should use that one to try to get to top 3 before using their alt to also get in the top 25.

I guess this discussion could also lead into the point of alts. Personally I only get on my alt when either there isn't a member tourny going on, if I'm not feeling lucky.

Heck, should alts be trashed altogether?

What's your opinion?

And didn't alts spawn from the fact that Wishbone would get a -1 for winning on an 1500 table?

alex i just met you today, more or less. my opinion is, if someone is able to get points without cheating, its fair if they get them with 1, 2, or 30 accounts. if they arent cheating, there is no harm, just bragging rights.

now, let me tell you what HAS been penalized in the past. by Ryan himself. it is NOT ALLOWED to go from gallery to gallery following someone and constantly harrassing him to lose points so that you can pass him in the standings. if you are a man (and you claim your balls have dropped), then you sit your ass down with him, and you fight on the table. Ryan himself has personally told me this rampant gallery harrassment is not allowed, and chastised me so bad that he took away a gold trophy from me and gave it to the guy i was harrassing.

so stfu and sit yer ass down and roll.

We are all here to have fun, if playing many accounts in a legitimate manner is fun, who cares if they are in the top 25.

Now sidebar, this is fieros logic for cheating, we are all here to have fun and cheating is fun so why hate him for cheating.

Main point STFU Alex you are fucking dumb this was the most pointless complaint I have ever seen brought to the kdice forums and that is really saying something.

Also alts were needed in elo, because you couldn't play a 1500 elo game with a 2k+ account and get a positive score even if you won. So if you wanted to play with people on the 1500 tables you needed an alt.

In closing, Ryan a plea, ELO was better please make it so again.
