Can anyone give me an explanation? The title confused me by saying he wasnt really.

Today’s daily climb has a modifier that adds 3 copies of whatever card you choose and removes the card removal service from shops. This leads to huge decks (100+) and triggers the cheater flag. Very much an oversight on the dev side.

So just a bug? Thanks for the info.

How many cards do you need? I was at 116 but didn’t get a cheater mark

120 If I'm correct.

It's pretty dumb, if i was cheating i would go the opposite way and create a 2-3 card combo decks

Then you lose to timelord. The strongest decks if you are cheating are giant. You can fill your deck with 150 mind blasts or perfected strikes and one shot anything.

Actually some of the best decks against Timelord would be exactly 5 cards. There's a whole meta around this and the Minimalist achievement.

Thank God, I was freaking out.

Cheater. Scum. Dolphin. 2 of these things are true.

I knew he wasn't really a Dolphin!

Yeh exactly, those periods should be commas.

To everybody confused: look at the other recent threads, today's daily has a bug where someone who has more than 100(?) cards is flagged as a cheater because normally you wouldn't be able to get that many, but the new hoarder mod for the daily makes that entirely easy to do.
I hope they'll just blanket undo the strikes for everybody instead of making us ask individually with screenshot etc.
TL;DR there's a bug, it's a joke

thanks for explanation. Seemed odd anyone would actually be cheating in this game.

Wow I thought he had more integrity than this. Markov expected more, chat expected nothing less.

Wow, what absolute scum. I was watching the stream as this happened and can't believe that using chat draft and having it recorded by his VOD, DolphinChemist would have the audacity to cheat.
Truly deplorable. What an awful human being. /s

Look at that smug cheating cheater. So smug. So cheating. /s

He should be banned from r/DolphinChemist.

Lacking context here. How did he cheat exactly? How you can cheat in this game is beyond my grasp.

He didn't cheat. The daily challenge for today leads to huge decks and sets off the cheater flag despite not actually cheating.

I'd also gotten that from today's daily; anyone have any idea why?

For those worried about getting the cheater tag, this statement is taken directly from u/Caseyyano via the discord.
the cheater flag does nothing in beta btw
but the flag will be reset and the false positive will be patched in the weekly update.
The reason for this was due to the game detecting an event that shouldn't be occurring, in this case having over ~120 cards in your deck. The two developers hadn't accounted for the daily modifiers affecting this behaviour. They have already stated that the oversight will be fixed.
Oooh, so is that why my daily run with the 3x card modifier wasn't submitted? I had no idea what I was doing and ended up with 124~ cards.
No, this isn't why.
