Accused:
berserkr
chapmang

The accused are suspected of:
Conducting Secret Diplomacy

Game number(s):
Game 14107223

Comments: The players in question had been locked in Scotland for the majority of the game (after I finally kicked Chapmang off West Country, which he went for for no realistic reason). They haven't attacked each other, other than making Tayside a spoils spot eventually, and have been stacking the entire game since. When blue got taken out of the game and red was close to collapse, Chapmang suddenly started moving out, with Berserkr taking Scotland. I've been the target of both of them ever since. Which for some time I found rather normal, as I had the largest army and regions.
However, even when Berserkr started getting the upper hand, neither have attacked each other. Even when their borders were poorly defended against each other, sometimes even with just 1 troop. At the moment of writing Berserkr could've already secured (most likely) the game by hitting Isle of Man (1 troop border), yet he hasn't. Thus I'm fairly certain they've singled me out through secret diplomacy, and have possibly been in an alliance ever since they got locked into Scotland together.

Thanks for looking into it.

I dont think there is anything too suspicious here. When it comes down to 3 people it can be tough to balance everything out.

I beg to differ. It's highly suspicious leaving just one troop at each other's borders for several turns, no stabs happening meanwhile, even though I wasn't the largest at the time, yet still a complete focus on me. Just last turn they ended up fighting between themselves as they've next to completely ruined me.

Though, I suppose it's hard to corroborate my story if it's technically difficult, or impossible (I'm leaning on this), to see troop numbers per region for previous turns. I would prefer if you had said that other than that there's little suspicious behaviour going on, that's only true for the last turn.

Thanks for looking into it though.
