Good Morning! As you know(if you dont live on a cristal ball), My points Antonio's points has been removed for "broking the rules" or "manipulate the competition" or in our words, 'matchfix'. So, I do this tweet for show how is the situation really, expose situations of the past few years, but i dont want to expose people because my objective is expose the situation, not the people involved, so, I'll avoid names. Let's start for answer the question ¿What means Matchfixing? Matchfixing means fix a Race between friends/ppl of the same team/country, for a benefit of someone and getting more points than he would, or in other case, lobby boosting is basically call people who has similar DR of you for make the lobby with higher points than it would in a normal race. I'll show some example about this: 1- in 2022 on the Nations Cup on final round, here in CSA was a fight between a Chilean and a Brazilian, and it had lobby boosting on the last race but it didn't work because the other guy send a quick guy for beat them. Result: Nothing happened 2- in 2024 we all know what happened between Angel and bonelli, both did a lobby boosting, but some of us Crashed bonelli, to be fair he had a lot of reasons to cry and we all know the drama and it was the record of pts of the entire season, but the result? Nothing happened. and we see it like one of the most epic moments of our region. 3- I'll add the GTM Ambassador drama because i want to expose controversial decisions, but the result of that was only pts deletion. 4- I'll be objective and there's the Renault scandal. 4 guys involved we all got pts deletion (3 or 5 rounds) and 1 year ban of the competition, but aviable to do nations. Plus a massive exposing and drama. 5- on split 2 on manufacturer cup, some guy has been crashing the people of the lobby for make he's teammate win the race and get globals for the Manufacturer and invidiual points for beat he's rival. Result? The guy who helped got points deleted, but the guy who was benefit got nothing, that's important for later. Keep reading. 6- another example of the last point on a round after, same thing and same lobby, but the guy who was helping was other, i dont remember if he got pts deleted, but the guy who use that for he's benefit didn't get pts deleted. Once again.(point 5 and 6 you can call it matchfixing, and on consecutive rounds, PD allowing these standards.) That's only South America, let's go to another region, only of the last 2 years i dont need too much. 1- a race in suzuka who was fixed for someone of the drivers of that race for get global points and with these points that manufacturer qualified at the end 2- 5v1 on EMEA, i dont need to explain to much, 5 guys against 1 guy for help someone for a spot in manufacturers, including lobby boosting in some rounds, Result? The guy who boosted the lobby got pts deleted in one round, but its because they found a discord message saying "i listened him" and the guy who has been benefit of this got nothing, the others who were helping him aswell. 3- we saw in Asia a matchfix on the start of the season for getting globals and individual, the guy who was helping was underage, so he was influencing on others season by helping someone, result? Nothing happened to the guy who was benefit, the guy who helped i dont remember to be honest. 4- something happened similar on nations 2 underage was fucking someone's race by dirty driving and helping each other result? Nothing that's not relevant because they're underage and they could keep racing 5- some guy in Asia pushed someone off track on purpose on the beginning of the Manufacturers. making a heavy crash with 5 drivers involved for that move, the guy who got pushed off, didn't pit for take revenge and crashed him on purpose on the straight. Result? The guy who waited and didn't pit got pts deletion + 3 days ban(means he missed another round, with a calendar of 6 races and 5 rounds counts, is almost 1y ban of the Manucup) +

And I'm only mentioning these controversial situations, i can talk all day about the standars of the stewards, some year has been really strict and for moments stupid, making a small contact a pts deletion, now, the standards doesn't exists, you can crash someone on purpose and you only will get a warning, except the last example who got literally kicked from the Manufacturers cup, after seeing all of this, and when the guy who normally has been benefit of this didn't get a penalty, at least in our region, can someone explain me why Antonio and me got pts deleted? Both are for lobby boosting, or matchfixing, they said fix a race is bad.... but since when is bad? I mean Antonio didn't do anything for matchfixing, how can you delete a pts for a comment on a yt channel and for a title in stream? Curious how something happened before on this season and no one got nothing and specially who has been benefit. So. In other words this year you could kill your rivals season, doesn't matter how many incidents you do in one round you only would get a warning per round, and matchfix on the proper lobby on the eyes of everyone, and nothing happened, and nothing happened before on the last years. What changed now? Is a bit obvious why they did that, as I explained before on the last month. What we lived with Angel this nations season has been annoying and it goes against everything of what they promote of ""sportsmanship"" and in the other side Antonio got DR reset for a bug on the penalty on the first round, and he has been getting advices from PD for not matchfix the daily races for gain the DR back, and after, deleting he's pts for a comment on the stream, is a bit obvious in my eyes. In my opinion doesn't matter what he does now because our penaltys has a reason, if they gave he's points back they would do the same to me, because they allowed it on the last month, including on this season, Bonelli accused us for matchfix on Round 4, and it wasn't true because why Angel should beat me and win the race if i need these points? Makes no sense, so in mi conclusion i got pts deleted because they needed something for not make Antonio's pts deletion more obvious than it is rn, they will only say "no, we delete the pts of who has been matchfix on this round so is the same for everyone". We all know not all of us races with the same rules, I know ppl of top split of some region who has been double accounting on top split and no one said anything, so yeah it a bit curious how this works, and how you could manipulate it this year on your favour so it is what it is, i guess. Thanks for reading me, i just want to show the hypocrisy of our pts deletion of me and Antonio, only for the benefit of someone, i hope no one of you get offended with that i just wanted to show situations, not people, so yeah is all from my side, have a good day Hyperz.
