ESG Ban Evidence
While we won't ever provide anti-cheat logs that we use to identify cheats, I see no real reason to hide the evidence we used to determine that K1ng broke ESG rules by using smurfs on their player accounts.
In this case, the term smurf is implying that they gave their account information to another person and had them play the match for them.
Now, we use a few unique pieces of hardware in each machine to generate individual serials, and then we use those pieces to generate what is essentially a unique hardware ID for that computer. This combined with your ESG account information, IP address and CrossFire player name in game gives us more than enough to tell if the match is being played from the same location each week.
In this case, we had two bans for smurfing, which is an instant DQ from ESG events. So hopefully this will be enough for you to see that regardless if I post the cheating evidence, you were already being DQ'ed anyhow. Please note I have removed the IP address from this information so it is not personally identifiable and to protect the privacy of the players. Instead, I have shown the location where the account logged in from. Please note that programs such as VPN's and WTFast would not affect these logs as we gather IP's and Hardware information before it reaches the network tunneling programs. This gives us consistent and accurate results everytime.

Both of these logs prove without a doubt that k1ng used smurfs in an ESG match, and that is grounds for disqualification from ESG. I'd also like to note that "akirasunjie", the leader of the team, was banned for cheating. He would have been banned anyhow for allowing smurfs to play in an ESG match as the team leader. Instead he only received the standard 1 year ban for a 1st time cheating offense.

Hmmm*An anonymous cheater* - Take a look at my PC, its clean with no hack files. The logs that you show are fake with the hack files edited in.
That is just a possible scenario if a league were to show evidence.
