[pinkrose2012]

Accused:

P3K
Shai



The accused are suspected of:


Conducting Secret Diplomacy




Game number(s):

Game 16337526
Game 16312501
Game 16253498
Game 16133989

There are more.... Just have to look...

Comments: I may be wrong but I feel these two are conducting a secret diplomacy to insure one or the other wins their games. After suspecting and feeling curious, I checked into it and noticed how many games they are in and one or the other wins. Playing it off so it's not completely obvious .... I feel it's worth looking into anyway...

Shai and I have made no secret of our friendship. We have used game chat openly which hardly seems like a good strategy if we were going to cheat. We have had many long games (number of rounds) that have gone back and forth. I am saddened by this spurious charge.

I do hope I am wrong and if I am I apologize. However, it does look and seem suspicious to me and wanted it looked into just in case because that would be cheating and unfair to other players.
Players have done this and got caught. I do understand that not every suspicion ends in guilt. But unless suspicious activity is reported we wouldn't know.
I felt this needed looked into, especially with the amount of 3 player games you all play with either one of you winning.
I also understand 3 player games can seem one sided without intentional cheating.
Perhaps this is just luck and coincidence, I hope that is the case and again if so I apologize.

I'm also going to include Game 16626331 in this report. It appears they have recently been playing 3 player games on the same map with the same settings. They do attack one another but there is a reasonable argument that there may be some favorable moves that are being done in these 3 player games. However, we still need more supporting proof at this time. This is noted for future reference.

Thank you, King Achilles.
