    Ya just realized my message was screwed meant to say before as in the relic would need to be deployed first heh

    As for why I made the hypothesis I suspected their is some function that cycles through and checks Hp to kill units it most likely won't trigger again if it's still running even if the Vampyre causes Hp lose and since everything in pox operates on a stack system based on when they were deployed if the relic was deployed first it would of already passed the relic when the vamp causes it to change Hp.

    I also suspected what you confirmed that when something triggered another cycle by attacking or doing anything it would die, but I couldn't be sure what would trigger it, it was also possible if it was coded to only check effected targets that the attack or targetibg would need to be on a relevant vamp or the relic.

    Basically, the prevent death stuff pauses the game so that on death effects won't trigger. Normally it doesn't matter but in this case the relic is dying at the same as the prevention of death, so the negative HP relic stays alive since the reduction in HP is actually part of the same "batch" of events.

    But, as soon as ANYTHING happens, the death check occurs and the game goes "oh, this relic should be dead" and kills it before anything else happens.

    If you are still planning on giving cards away I just started this week. I play mainly fw and ud, I could also use some voils if you have any

    I'm pretty sure he doesn't log on anymore, either way, he gave away everything except some UD, which I believe he ended up selling to a third party site.

    There is no hacking in pox. If you read the thread he for mad about this bug basically he for proven wrong by everyone. Probably couldn't take the shame and quit.

    Sok and I have also proven the "cheat" in question to be autofixed by the game system upon any sort of action taken afterwards by any player, so it was all a ruse anyway.

    Also worth mentioning, he didn't actually quit the game. Just stopped posting in forums.

    From my understanding, almost anything can be hacked, however, if you could hack Pox, you might as well hack some personal information instead, since it would require the same amount of effort.

    Hacking pox would be exceptionally easy simply due to the lack of any real safety measures. Hacking most other things would be more of a hassle due to authentication and other safety measures most websites have built in. Do i believe hacking was the case here? Not really but its not totally unbelievable. For a game where you can collect items that have some sort of value pox has insanely low security.

    If the game had a bigger player base im sure accounts would get hacked to sell cards on ebay for a few bucks all the time

    authentication of accounts ? or servers?

    There's a difference between hacking to gain access to an account and hacking to modify how a program works. The later is much more difficult than the former.

    The thing is, the case would have had to have been the latter, since it was modifying how the game worked (negative HP values, which were of course a bug).

    I was actually using the example that if you had the know how to hack pox so that you could easily win games, you might as well steal credit card numbers from whatever, since it would require about the same amount of effort, to my understanding.

    It was a bug that had absolutely no impact on the game though, he just tried to make a big deal out of it.

    not even the programmers know how to work the systems half the time, how could a hacker?
