Ravaging emperor, BlackBetty.dk, Genghis Khunt(sn)

[g bear]

Accused:

BlackBetty.dk
Ravaging emperor
Genghis Khunt



The accused are suspected of:


Conducting Secret Diplomacy


Game number(s):

Game 14518241


Comments: BlackBetty.dk posted game strategy on the walls of Genghis and Ravaging. I did not know until the game was almost over, but was alerted by another CC member (top banana) who was engaged in a different game with Ravaging Emperor and was beginning to suspect foul play in said game. Ravaging has since deleted these wall posts but as of this writing there remained one on Genghis Khunt's wall. As I understand the rules any communication regarding an active game outside the game chat is a clear b reach of the rules. I also have no way of knowing whether these players pm each other regarding the game, or how much they benefited from the information being posted on said walls. I would like for someone with access to take a closer look at this situation. Thank you.

Well it's a pretty clear cut case of game tactics being discussed from outside of the game chat, the site classify this as Secret Diplomacy.

Below is an excerpt from the "Rules" page itself.

Rule #2: No secret diplomacy

Any form of diplomatic discussion between opponents must only be posted in the game chat in English or in a language that all opponents understand. No other methods of communication may be used to hold diplomatic discussions between opponents including, but not limited to, the forum, the wall, Live Chat, or the inbox.

I would expect, based on the old system, that the one visible culprit BlackBettry.dk will receive a warning for the offence.

I can find no evidence that Ravaging emperor and Genghis Khunt have answered through Pm or wall, so they are cleared

BlackBetty.dk on the other hand, has received his first and only warning

Sniff
