My guess is he cheeses every single game so that he either wins or loses within 5-10 minutes.

Apparently he just sends all his workers to attack the other person's base at the start of the game and then alt-tabs out. Obviously it fails far more often than it succeeds, but it keeps him in Bronze and he wins enough games to get all those achievements.

still 6000 games of 5 minutes is quite much IMO, at least in such a short time.

The contest is stupid...obviously nobody is going to win it unless they cheese. Setting a condition like that after the contest is already posted is crap.

i am sure that those were alot of poeple having a go on that account^^
still, the one who said he would hand out the money can modify the rules and claim anything is cheese, and thus it's not possible to do it within his "own rules"

w/o cheesing , 6 months is almost impossible. would have to make it a full time gig to earn it but lets face it , a regular job would earn more then this. he made a safe bet and can laugh at those who attempt to get this

Not in the first 6 months the game is out, they won't. Unless they literally play all day and all night.

You'll be surprised what kind of sick people there are.

But just think, 6000 games of 2-5 minutes, in 1 month. That means that 6000 games of 20 minutes (which is kinda the average time a game takes, at least for me) will take someone 4-10 times as long. If his games took 5 minutes I think that there is someone on this world who will make it in time, especially if he plays very aggresive where games might only take 10-15 minutes.

account sharing is illegal, and I'm sure the guy running the contest wouldn't allow it either. he's shown that he doesn't mind checking people's game logs to see if they're cheesing, so I'm sure he'd do the same to see if one "player" were playing literally all day and all night.
