Really, aside from them only attacking each other significantly at the end of these games, when it was absolutely necessary, it appears that in the instances where they played consecutively, they took their turns in close proximaty to each other. On this very night, they visited this site within five minutes of each other. My guess is they are siblings or they live close enough to each other that they hang out together. I could be wrong, but I don't believe you have a single person with a multi account (unless he/she has multiple personalities, that is) because they both have premium accoumts. I think you have two people playing on the same pc or at least playing in the same room. They've played over 92 games together and the majority of them not being team games. I didn't go through all of those but I bet you will find similar patterns of play in them.

Definitely looks suspicious to me.

Y'all are focusing on ONE game-it's not just the one game. Andir what are you going on about? Noone has accused you of cheating....if you want your own thread then accuse yourself. Madmom is one of the best players I have ever had the pleasure of playing with-she doesn't accuse people of things just for fun-and definately not a sore loser. I am not seeing the comment made about me but if you are accusing her and I of cheating..HA! You are funny!

I have read all the above and without going carefully through the games cited to analyze what happened it is impossible to determine if there was obvious collusion. Most of us don't have the time or inclination to do that, but one thing I feel is certain is that if the two friends know they will eliminate all other players before squaring off against each other to decide the final victor they are not being ethical.

To some people their integrity has no value; to others one's integrity is paramount. If covert 63 and CDL Texan know that they will operate in the way described then they owe it to their fellow players and to their own self respect, honor and integrity to refrain from playing as opponents in the same games. It's not a complicated ethic and it is easy to adhere to.

As for the rest of us, we can and should foe players who do not conform with our own standards of fair play. In this way we can obtain immediate relief from players who collude, even if only tacitly and not overtly, as is apparent in this case.

From this report, we already have some people who look at the accused guilty as charged, and these games seem to support that idea. Given that the 3 games provided here are suspicious enough to one's point of view, I can almost agree that these two had some sort of secret collision with some of their games together. Still, with all these notes, they have defended themselves and I am inclined to give them both the benefit of doubt. Better not let friendship sway the way you play non-team games.

I strongly advise that you, covert 63 and CDLTexan, stick to playing team matches or have private games with your friends from now on. If we get another report that you two are involved in another secret diplomacy accusation, with evidence to prove it, a block will be imposed. Warnings sent to both.

peanutsdad - Your point is taken but your last remark was unnecessary. If you have something to say, leave out these insinuating remarks and stick to the topic.
