What is "tacoing" in relation to AoE3?

Post by fightinfrenchman »

I was once accused of "tacoing" in a NR55 Orinoco game where I had way more resources than my opponent. Does this have something to do with "generating" resources in the background with a cheat program? Because I definitely did not do that! I've heard of smurfing but this is the only time I've heard of tacoing

It means laying yourself down on a thin sheet of baked corn dough, then covering yourself in mincemeat, lettuce, bell peppers, cheese and cherry tomatoes.

It's certainly a possibility.

No, the time between postings of it will get shorter and shorter until I reach the fabled 1 post per 10 seconds limit. Then others will start posting it, and we will approach but never reach infinite postings of the taco question per second.

There is a guy named ColdTaco, he is pr50 and he is using resource trickle cheats I think.
Aside from that he OOSes you if you win vs him with proxy bases and running.
The term "tacoing" might origin from this guy. It really is possible.
