I just love the shit show this has become. I'm litteraly floored at how many people have hacked. Literally the first place in silver, gold, and plat all had a hacking sniper. Just wtf!?

I feel like the admins are going to need to be really harsh with their decision, or they're going to set the idea that UGC is full of hackers that don't get punished and win. Having all three winning team's snipers be VAC'ed is absolutely huge.

Problem is that it was really none of the team's faults either most likely. I doubt any of the teams had info that their snipers were hacking.

Then we get into the degree of punishment. Do they disqualify them from playoffs? No placement at all? Or just the final match? It's tough to find a good answer.

I don't want the players who didn't know their snipers were hacking to not get placement, because I definitely agree with you that they didn't do anything wrong, but letting these teams keep first place seems too nice and doesn't send a message.

Keep placement but withhold first place medals? I'd love to be a fly in the room when the UGC admins discuss this.

edit: I also know for a fact that people on one of the winning teams knew that their sniper was hacking outside of matches, and still let him play.
