Comments: In our current game, game number 17039505, I noticed through 5 rounds these two players were not strategically going after one another at all but were instead setting up bonuses separate from one another and attacked each other only twice to secure bonuses while attacking other players 9 times. It triggered my thoughts that there may be other games where these two "paired up". Upon my investigation of the last 9 games of about 34 these two have played together I see mass collusion where they do not attack each other except to secure bonuses and then only attack each other later in game after it is in hand by one of the other, or in some cases where they both fail and someone takes advantage and wins.
In the above game totals they attack each other only 17 times while attacking other players (all 4-player games) 92 times. All of the games are totaled through the first 4 rounds except the current game goes through 5. In order of games from 17039505 through 12552830 game by game is as follows:
1: Attacked others: 9
each other: 2
2: Attacked others: 9
each other: 3
3: Attacked others: 10
each other: 2
4: Attacked others: 14
each other: 2
5: Attacked others: 7
each other: 2
6: Attacked others: 11
each other: 3
7: Attacked others: 9
each other: 2
8: Attacked others: 14
each other: 0
9: Attacked others: 9
each other: 1
I didn't go back further than these games but I see these two playing as teammates in single-player games. This is serious as these two are inflating numbers by teaming up on unsuspecting victims of their cheating.
