Hansei, how about we work on cutting down yellow's troops on Judge Hathorn? I'll commit to it this round if you also do so.

Rules: "in Conquer Club, coordinated play is generally allowed within team games, but strictly prohibited between opponents in standard games."


So I called this out in a sarcastic manner when another person called to coordinate attacks. There was no follow through.
These attacks are coordinated and specific, down to the location and troop count.
I would have let this go after mentioning it, but they mentioned continuing the attacks and pink has already done so.

""in Conquer Club, coordinated play is generally allowed within team games, but strictly prohibited between opponents in standard games."
Where is this rule written ?

If numbers 2 and 3 are coordinating to trim the game leader I think that is fine. What wouldn't be fine if pink ends up giving the game to silver. Throwing a game is 100% against the rules.

These round limit games without escalating spoils are tricky, lot depends on the final turn and who gets to act last.

I always found Hansei to be a very good sport. Ofcourse it sucks if you are 'the victim" but i do not think faul play is involved here.

"in Conquer Club, coordinated play is generally allowed within team games, but strictly prohibited between opponents in standard games."

Is this really a rule? I've been playing CC for over a decade and I've never seen this. As long as all coordination is discussed in the game chat and not privately, I assumed that coordination is fair. Even the case of a player intentionally losing to give another player the win could be fine in certain circumstances. If I know I can't win, then it's in my best interest to help the player with the highest ranking win so that I lose fewer points for the loss.

This is not a rule. All communication for a truce must be in game chat.

" If I know I can't win, then it's in my best interest to help the player with the highest ranking win so that I lose fewer points for the loss."

I would consider this throwing a games.

"Unwritten Rules
Obviously any gross abuse of the game is forbidden. This includes but is not limited to: throwing games or deliberately benefiting from thrown games, intentional deadbeating, holding players hostage, serial teammate killing, hijacking accounts, systematically "farming" new recruits and colluding with other players in any way to manipulate the scoring system."

if throwing games was against the rule, i think almost every person here would be banned
