For GON, we were dealing with so much drama from GON at the time because of stuff some of their clan members were posting in the public forum, in games, and in PM's to the members of AWOL. I still have my inbox from then, but I don't see any PM's to GON regarding the missed game, although there are many PM's about their interactions with AWOL. I suspect we did not have the mental energy to argue with them anymore, after dealing with the drama from the past weeks. I know that sounds bad, but honestly, I can't remember exactly what happened except that it was an extremely stressful time. When it was reported we gave them 24 hours and they joined so we didn't punish them. We believe we made an error in not punishing them, and we will be firm not to allow other stressors to affect our implementation of the rules again.
Developmental changes in visual short-term memory occur after elapsed time, memorising it completely different then how the actual events took place. I checked with renowned world authority, Professor Suggon Deeznutz, and she said "a paronia state of mind is legal in America if this is about Caff from AWOL and two years ago". If its about Nut Shut Scott however, then you are partially correct. If its about Devante, you are 100% correct. Under reservation of all rights and without any adverse acknowledgment im always happy to explain what actually happened with Caff and AWOL and how things he started took place if somebody would be interested at all. If not, let's move on and play ball.
