Accused:

Neil Basil
NatasReficul

The accused are suspected of:
Conducting Secret Diplomacy

Game number(s):
Game 21940150

Comments:
Was playing an 8 person Baltic Crusade map.
Then about round 22, Neil and I were the 2 strongest players. Natas who was not bordering me at the time, shows up with a stack of troops, and proceeds to attack just me to the point he suicides to weaken me.
There was no friction or hostile chat between us to cause such a move. It was puzzling, but I let it go at that time.
Then decided to go back through the log and saw that Neil and Natas never once attacked each other.

I thought that possibly it was a fluke, but decided to do a quick search on their joint gameplay.
They have several dozen games together.
While I only glanced at 4 of their other games together, 3 of those games showed they did not attack each other at all.
All the same map, Baltic Crusade
Game 21940153
Game 21940151
Game 21940142

Those 3 games combined with the original one I first linked, is over 150 rounds played on a very small map with them never attacking each other.
Not sure if that crosses your threshold for 'suspicious' or not, but it caught my attention.

Thanks for your time

Well, every game listed is still active and fog
But in one of them they are the first two to be eliminated, so not working well together.
In your game, from what i can see, you had the highest territory count and asked one of them for an alliance which was rejected.
Other than that every other game they are in they do attack each other, but both have played without the other too.
I see no real evidence of any alliance.
For now i am clearing this

However, once these 4 games are completed and I can see full logs, I will double check them.
