Comments:
Normally I would just foe, rate, and let it go, but they're still teaming up after I called them out on it in the game chat. I was promptly eliminated from the game by sequential attacks by both of them, but there's another player who's getting railroaded by these two. There's been no truce discussion in the game chat, but they have kept single troops on their borders for entire continents in World 2.1 for many turns in a row, and instead choose to attack players in the game who have large fortifications. They haven't attacked each other in 3 rounds, and instead only attack whoever they are trying to eliminate.

The only things they have said in the game chat was a "Good Luck" type statement from destamper at the inception of the game, and "You are good, [Player X]" from sstefan 6 rounds ago (which I assume to be some attempt at shifting attention to Player X).

This has happened to me frequently lately, where 2 people team up in a 3-man or 4-man game, without any formal discussion in the game chat. If this is within the rules, and is not secret diplomacy, I apologize for the frivolous post and accusation, but it is certainly unfair in my estimation. They are coordinating attacks, and are obviously respecting each other's borders.

Checking the game right now, the way blue is leaving his borders unguarded with green, it can look suspicious. However, this is their first game played together and we would need more than this to establish some sort of connection between them. If you feel they had a secret diplomacy in your game, feel free to leave the appropriate ratings for these players.
