Accused:
Soldier4Christ

The accused are suspected of:

Other: Abuse of a bug.

He waited till he was the last player to go then took over the oasis. He then let his time run out for his turn so he could start immediately at the start of the next round to get the win.

Game number(s):

Game 4079016




Comments: Seems like a pretty clear case of abuse. He is using a flaw in the system to get around the freestyle rule that you can not end and begin back to back rounds.

If you look closely at the game log. He ended the round, but didnt begin the new one. He just one because he held the objective for a turn. Besides, I'm reasonably sure that they fixed that game bug.

2009-01-26 19:02:11 - Soldier4Christ ran out of time
2009-01-26 19:02:11 - Incrementing game to round 7
2009-01-26 19:02:11 - Soldier4Christ held the Find The Treasure objective

When you start the round holding the objective this is the text you see.
I think it is fairly clear not only have they not fixed this bug, but that Soldier has abused it in this instance.

Is it when the round starts or your turn starts that you get that text. Because he doesnt receive any other bonuses or other indications that he started his turn. I think this might be a map bug instead. Also, i just tested the running out of time rule and it doesn't work anymore.
