something very funny going on in game 1575831

Please have a look at game 1575831:

1. Sanmaya (slate) sends me a pm offering an alliance:
"this is going wrong, if we go thrue (sic) with this red will win.
I suggest you go for south england and i won't bother you there. You can have it. I go for ireland and stop red before it's to late.
You keep yellow away from me so i can move my units from wales to ireland to attack red there."

2. kickbedaone (yellow) masses armies right on my (and Sanmaya's) doorstep, preventing any attacks in the south, never attacks Sanmaya. Finally, kickbedaone moves north, practically committing suicide. From 22 or so armies on one territory he now has a continent with 1 army on each territory, and no defense whatsoever.

Maybe it's just bad play, but I smell a rat - can you investigate?

These are suspected Secret Alliance

Suspect users: Sanmaya and kickbedaone

Game number: http://www.conquerclub.com/game.php?game=1575831

Comments: Sanmaya sends me a pm offering an alliance - I decline. kickbedaone amasses lots of armies on my and other's doorsteps, effectively blocking the game and preventing everybody in the south to attack Sanmaya, who becomes stronger and stronger. When kickbedaone has an opportunity to attack Sanmaya and get Wales in the process, he doesn't take it. Finally kickbedaone moves north, takes North England and ends with 1 army on each territory and no defence whatsoever. Suicide in my book. Secret alliance or multi?
