ECSESS disputes this Mechanical Victory.  
ECSESS disputes this Mechanical Victory.  


The coordinators announced at the beginning of the week that the final scores would be announced during the Blues Pub following E-Week, a full 6 days after the last day of E-Week. One of the events was a game of (Assassin)[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassin_(game)], run on the EUS servers. A chem eng student who was on the Mechanical team coerced his Concordia Comp-Sci roommate to create a script to hack the game. Instead of waiting until the following Blues Pub, the coordinators decided to announce the winner as Mechanical over the weekend following E-Week, not leaving enough time for the person running the assassin game to check the server logs and verify that there had been no hacking. The point differential gained by the cheating was enough to put Mechanical over the edge; otherwise ECSESS would have won.
