What happens when a multi is busted?

This is (sorta) reposted from the cheating thread. Anyway, what happens? Are they locked out of finishing games they are currently in (turning them into de facto deadbeats)?

Is there any way to get back the points a person loses to a multi? If not, is this something that lack is currently considering/working on?

Do Sully or Master Bush have the power to have them and their families slain?

No, they are allowed to finish the game they are currently in, but are banned from starting or joining any more.

Nope, if you lose to a multi then they keep your points. As far as I am aware, Lack is not looking to change that rule either.

Yes. But it is only used in extreme cases. :wink:

Well, as to letting them finish, I suppose that makes some sense. However, I don't get why you should have to lose points to someone who is cheating.

Probably way to hard to reprogram as I saw posted somewhere else - you would have to recalculate your score and then everyone who would have been indirectly effected by the change in your score and then people who were affected by the change in the other people's score and so on... I hope you understood that...

Besides mucking with stuff that's better not mucked with, there's also a chance a bust could be a mistake. After all, the multi-hunters are only human (well, we're not entirely sure about MB, but he's close enough).
