So i guess undeclared account sitting is ok for high ranks to do, but not for low ranks.
Undeclared account sitting is fine of course, because there is no rule about saying it. I forget quite often myself to announce it.
However, sitting for tactical advantage is against the rules, which would certainly include having a brother play because he was faster, or because the timing of the move was better, and not because he was going to miss. It is in fact that situation, that was the inspiration for the babysitting rules in the first place.
In this case, pie123... has not mentioned that it was not him playing though. He hasnt said that it was actually his brother...he only said that it was his brothers that presumably taught him. Or, is it that code was right, and that someone else was making the moves. In that case, he was obviously right on in his accusation, and couldnt possibly be expected to know it happened to be a ...legal babysitter...especially since pie chatted with him in the game the whole time, and never mentioned anything about that possibility.
If another brother played, all he would have had to do was say, my bro wont be around for a day or two, so im making his moves, which is why im faster, and better than most 200 game players.
I have no idea what the situation is here, but certainly its not coincidence that code had a hunch someone else was playing an account, and it turns out two brothers theoretically could have been playing them, and at the very least, taught him how to play.
If it turned out, that only one IP and one account showed up with pie12345, then perhaps it was paranoid...but since 3 accounts will show up, it was hardly paranoid, and obviously its anyone's guess at this point what really happened.
But he started by saying he wasnt a multi, and then that he had brothers, and now the possibility of babysitting comes up... its obviously at least a little suspicious, and most of it could have been avoided with a little honesty from the beginning. The bogus post about Code somehow throwing the game doesnt help the matter either. I would suggest pies brother give him more advice about how to handle this situation, and to simply tell the truth and explain it, and certainly not make some silly accusations that really dont even make any sense whatsoever. Its really the only way in this situation.
