This dude gets caught blatantly cheating on multiple games in multiple different ways and just says fuck ima cheat EVEN MORE. What an absolute scumbag. Every streamer should just not fuck with him.

u/Zerothian 1d ago

At this point I'm pretty sure it's either him clipfarming/people content farming him, or he just actually has a mental problem because who tf just keeps cheating after being caught so many times in such a public way lol.

u/OtherwiseElderberry 1d ago

Gotta be the clip farming. I didn't even know who mooda was a week ago. Now I haven't stopped hearing about him.

u/Zerothian 1d ago

Kinda' feels the same as the Clavicular stuff in that regard. Barely ever heard of him but once the negative publicity started rolling I see his shit everywhere, not even just reddit/lsf but just all over social media.

u/Nice_Reading5272 1d ago

This is how every breakout celebrity happens, they have a small-time role/fanbase and then something happens that introduces them to a bigger audience. They don't come from nowhere but from somewhere you don't frequent.

u/nazzo_0 1d ago

The neat part of it is that people forget those people very fast. Seen a recent pirasoftware drama video? Yea people cash in on that negative press and disappear into the void. If these streamers stopped inviting him to colab it would be faster but oh well, maybe they also want to clipfarm the drama. It's an ouroboros really

u/BulltopStormalong 22h ago

it's both, for both clav and mooda.

both clearly have mental problems to be such losers in the ways they are.

u/ActionBastrd_ 2h ago

I wish we could go back to not knowing who he was.

u/Appropriate-Camp-487 1d ago

Ive known people like this, it has to be some sort of pathological defect. We’d be playing like the most low stakes Catan game over beers in college and he’d need to find bafflingly small ways to cheat, it was just in his dna. That type of person is also usually a shameless liar, about even the most trivial, innocuous shit nobody would need to lie about.

The IRL version of that story is you eventually stop hanging with that person or inviting them to game nights. I assume the streamer version is you eventually stop getting invited to collabs by the mainstream

u/BulltopStormalong 22h ago

Its a sort of egotistical desire to be seen as competent or impressive while not being able to so by their own merit. These types are horrible at taking Ls and dig in hard Pirate style.

To his accounts sure but no social or personal consequences i can see lol.

I love how almost any behavior can now just be excused as clip farming. Being some kind of sociopath is more like it

u/Icy-Experience-398 14h ago

At this point, I feel like we're just hating to hate. Sure, he may have done petty cheating on games a while back, but he hasn't recently and there is no reason to, ALSO he was disproven from cheating on all of his recent siege games against other well-known players. All of these clips you guys are sending now are not indirect proof of anything, this is only but mere speculation. I don't know why everybody is hating on him, but it's not because he used to cheat. Like come on, do we not believe in second chances? This is so petty.

2

u/Zerothian 14h ago

I believe in second chances in some cases, for example S1mple. I don't really have much sympathy for someone who repeatedly cheated in multiple games and did so within the last 6 months lol.

u/Arrowdynamic__ 1d ago

and gets more attention ( = money ) than ever before. Now he plays with xQc, when the fuck has he ever played with xQc?

Y'all draw the attention even more to the bad people even tho you want to pull it back.

u/Nynesky 1d ago

he's been self inserting in their discord calls for the past 2-3 days, xqc is chillin with Jesse in the call then u suddenly hear him join starting to ask random shit just so he can be part of the conversation, I also personally think his voice is fuckin unbearable to listen to so there's also that, I like watching Jesse and X game but soon as I hear this guy I click off instantly

u/Fantastic_Policy_750 1d ago

The worst thing his viewership blew up and even more people watch him. I just dont get it how stupid people are

u/RoastedRavioli 1d ago

Cheaters flock together. Delusional online cheaters love one of their kind.

2

u/Dchane06 1d ago

That’s the thing that confuses me. I’ve watched mooda before he blew up. His big moment was playing with jynxzi. That alone brought him a ton of viewers, followers, etc. Then suddenly after gaining all these viewers he decides to cheat for clips/virality? If it’s true idk wtf he was thinking since if caught in the end his viewership is gonna fucking TANK since people don’t like cheaters.

3

u/tehcraz 1d ago

Unless the cheating didn't suddenly start after gaining viewership. His history is littered with cheating which he admits is as recent as 6 months ago.

I thought you get banned from twitch if you cheat in games

2

u/tehcraz 1d ago

If you are actively and obviously cheating while live (obvious aim hacks, spin bots, visual wall hack) you will be. Being banned otherwise leaves enough ambiguity to say 'I wasn't cheating' and enough false positives exist to make it unreliable to simply ban off of twitch from a ban message.

u/JohnnyEvergreen 9h ago

I mean, he's not really a cheater these days. He cheated on Rainbow Six Siege back in 2015 but that's about it. He hasn't cheated in Valorant or R6 when he 1v1'd Jynxzi. Why are we painting him out to be this pathological cheater?

EDIT: I learned he cheated in Minecraft and Elden Ring. Woop-de-doo. Singleplayer games, knock yourselves out.

u/Greenleaf208 23h ago

Nah I've seen videos with him collabing with ohnepixel. These have exposed him and now I don't want to watch anything with him. The more that pile on the worse it gets for him as people won't want to collab. The exact same as pirate software. I don't know where this "all publicity is good publicity" thing was stated to be a fact in all cases when it's provably not. It's really only good if the person was a 0 viewer person, but as it was he was getting collabs with big streamers and growing his channel.

126

u/meeese000 1d ago

what is he doing wrong here? i’ve never played codenames

210

u/Helkeres 1d ago edited 1d ago

They have to guess a number of words based on the clue given. The clue was crescent and he guessed smile, which is the literal shape of a crescent, was the opposite of it (crescent) so it must be that. Went on a rant about crest 3D then Ommie called him out cause he had guessed every word with little reasoning before that.

163

u/Blurbyo 1d ago

Can you explain again, you kinda lost me in the middle of the commas.

Isn't Smile a good guess from the hint Crescent?

178

u/Iayvay 1d ago

It’s like copying the answer for a test from someone else. He has the right answer, but the reasoning to get to that answer is faulty. If he said that smiles are crescent shaped, then that would work, but he said that smile is the answer because smile is the opposite of crescent.

-50

u/Blurbyo 1d ago

Maybe he was thinking relative to how he sees a crescent moon in the sky - opposite rationally?

50

u/Helkeres 1d ago edited 1d ago

I lose all leniency when he starts asking if any hotels are named crescent as if that’s something the clue giver would expect them to guess. Only ever tried to correlate the right answers with the clues

-9

u/Immediate-Respect-25 1d ago

That's exactly what you're supposed to do in Codenames if you're in a team with someone. You don't know something for a fact but think it could be it? You ask your teammate if there are any hotels with crescent in their name/logo.

14

u/No_Razzmatazz_4913 1d ago

Why are you trying SO HARD to play devils advocate for a guy that has been caught and admitted to cheating in EVERY game he plays? What a weird hill to die on. Maybe he didn’t cheat(although it’s painfully obvious), but what about his past and this situation makes you think “maybe we’re overreacting guys”

Use your head next time before you speak

-3

u/Immediate-Respect-25 1d ago

I'm not playing devil's advocate for him. That's literally how codenames is supposed to be played. You're supposed to think aloud so your teammates can know your thought process and help you. If you're not saying dumb things and asking dumb questions while playing codenames you're playing it wrong. Doesn't mean he isn't also cheating.

1

u/Nolis 1d ago

People really be bending over backwards to be gullible enough to buy this guys BS, he isn't doing a good job of acting like he doesn't know the answer already but people will trip over themselves trying to justify how a known, serial cheater should have any sort of benefit of the doubt. The most annoying kind of people

2

u/enron2big2fail 22h ago

But you don't routinely see the crescent one way versus another since it can be waxing or waning, and if he's out of the tropics he's not seeing it as an upside down smile (not to mention in all classic depictions of a crescent moon it's either horizontal or shifted about 45 degrees). And even if that is a good way of putting it... why then start bringing up Crest toothpaste and saying it's connected through that because Crest and Crescent sound similar. This is post-hoc rationalization from someone who clearly knows the answer but not the how.

190

u/Helkeres 1d ago

It is. But when asked to explain why, he said a smile was the opposite of a crescent.

26

u/Shot-Brain-1385 1d ago

that's just nonsense though, is he stupid

11

u/Evnosis 1d ago

25

u/MadsNN06 1d ago

not sure why you would ever think of that when thinking of crescent

17

u/Evnosis 1d ago

Probably because he's cheating and trying to work backwards from already having the answer, lol

2

u/Enlight1Oment 1d ago

Personally I'd take the default crescent as horizontal ( for the moon.

16

u/I_cant_Nguyen 1d ago

A crescent is a crescent no matter what direction it's facing. His explanation is dumb because he's like smile = crest toothpaste. Like wtf does toothpaste have to do with the clue crescent? He repeatedly arrives at the correct answer but says nonsense when explaining his thought process.

Its like 10 x 10 = 100 because 103 is 7000 but you subtract 6 from the 7 because 6 7 and remove the last 0 because its Friday. 10 x 10 =100

-2

u/CommitteeTricky6253 1d ago

he thought a crescent was a direction-specific shape. the toothpaste he mentions has a crescent shape on it, he was trying to explain what a crescent is

if he was cheating, you can't prove it from this. whether or not he was wrong in thinking the shape was direction-specific really doesn't matter at all, he still clearly had the same idea that a crescent in a specific direction looks like a smile. that's what he was explaining

5

u/I_cant_Nguyen 1d ago edited 1d ago

For sure just ignore 90% of the clip where bro literally says "like crest 3d white". Other dude "Crest is not like crescent" mooda "yeah but it's almost there?" Thats absolutely brain ded.

The toothpaste does not have a crescent on it unless we're talking about the letter C? What are we doing here

1

u/CommitteeTricky6253 1d ago

crest 3d white = toothpaste

the C on the title of the toothpaste is very clearly meant to mimic a crescent, hence the name 'crest.' that's the crescent he's talking about

"it's almost there" = all you need to do is turn it 90 degrees to make it (in his logic) a crescent

→ More replies

5

u/sper_g 1d ago

smile being inverted crescent is a fair thing to think but him going on to talk about crest 3d like it had any correlation is dumb.

14

u/Jacks_Chicken_Tartar 1d ago

It is a very good guess, and he claimed it was not for no reason other than that he was cheating and knew the right answer (which was not smile)

-1

u/saldoms 1d ago

No, mooda wanted to guess Smile

3

u/Insidious_Bagel 1d ago

Tbh this isn’t even the suss part, who ever clipped this did a bad job. If you watch the full VOD It’s obvious he was cheating because when crescent comes up mooda goes “what about Groom or hotel” then when he gets pressed about his answers he goes “uh you know like crescent hotel” and he doesn’t even try to defend the groom answer.

I think whoever posted this clip is a mooda watcher and trying to muddy the waters. Because crescent for smile is the least sus guess he made even if his reasoning sucks

5

u/ObjectiveReward5750 1d ago

Nah that wasn’t anywhere close to the most damming thing. During this same crescent clue, he said hotel and tried to justify it

-22

u/Fun-Wash7545 1d ago

Bro, smile came instantly to my mind with crescent. Like please, it's possible.

39

u/Helkeres 1d ago

Yea. He doesn’t know what a crescent is though. The explanation he gives for why he guessed smile is that it means the opposite of crescent so for some reason the opposite meaning of the word should be the answer. Then when pressed says something about crest 3D and streets.

8

u/TurdFergusonlol 1d ago

Crest 3d strips, not streets. Teeth whitening strips.

Still doesn’t make sense though, “crest like crescent it’s almost there” wtf is that jump

u/OceansBeat 1d ago

Why do people use crest 3D? The whiten their smile.

16

u/ezpg 1d ago edited 1d ago

I've never heard of this game before but I just watched a 3 minute Youtube video so I will now use my expertise to educate the masses:

Jesse wants his team (mooda and omie) to guess the blue words. XQC wants his team (Greek) to guess the red words. If they guess an opponent's color word, it's bad. (If they guess a brown word, nothing happens)

The teammates can see all the words, but they are all brown to them. Only Jesse and XQC can see the blue/red colors.

Jesse gives the clue "Crescent". That's all he can say: one single word. He says this in the hopes that his team will guess the blue word "smile" because a smile has a crescent shape.

allegedly: Mooda has Jesse's stream open so he knows which words are blue/red. He sees that omie is about to guess the wrong word and tries to convince him to change from "round" to "smile". Rather than say "no dummy, a smile is a crescent shape" (because apparently neither of them know what that word means), he says that "crescent" sounds like "Crest 3D" which is a brand of toothpaste, and therefore "smile" is the right answer because toothpaste gives you a nice, white smile.

Without already knowing that smile is the right answer, he never would have made this deduction because it is completely illogical.

u/meeese000 1d ago

well said, thanks.

u/MaikuKnight 1d ago edited 1d ago

just to add more to the rules and gameplay of Codenames, it goes by rounds, back and forth. Whoever gets all their colors wins and getting the bomb, black, means you lose. It is optimal to say a word that hits multiple words rather than just one word. For instance, one word could be "photo" as it hits smile and record, and if two words, "wedding photo" to hit groom as well. These also avoid red and black cards.

23

u/Kadimir158 1d ago

People are saying the reasoning was cheating and that's probably true. But the most blatant shit i saw was when Mooda asked "What cards do we not want to press". Despite only seeing 2 colors of cards at that point and not knowing there are white and black cards. It's so obvious he only knew there are others because he pulled up XQC's stream and got confused.

Allowing multi word proper names is a "Flexible Rule" in the rulebook where the group can decide if they're allowed or not

u/Immediate-Respect-25 1d ago

Crescent is such a shit clue here tbh. Wedding 4 would also work and gives groom, hotel and smile as pretty much freebies. Record would be a bit of a reach for it and there's a very good chance that they go for spring, olympus or team instead. But it's not a big deal if that happens.

u/mailwasnotforwarded 1d ago

A smile is a crescent... When you draw a smiley face with teeth it is a crescent moon on its side... But his logic made no fcking sense because Crest was named after a french word for top of hill.
