This would mean someone who makes a deal in game to win and allow the other person to throw a game, they would have breached the rules.
I don't know exactly what point dumping is, but the way it's worded now isn't sufficient, if they don't really mean what they said.
I don't think red should have accepted the thrown game. Yeah, I understand, "why do you turn down a free win?" Well, I just think red should have told blue to play out the game, rather than endorse the idea to throw the game by accepting that deal.
Common sense has to come in play at some point. And I think its pretty clear that he
(Lloyd Braun) didn't intentionally benefit from someone throwing a game, it wasn't/is excessive abuse on that point and he wasn't asking for or manipulating a player to throw a game in his direction.
In a 3 player game a case can be made the majority of the time for someone benefiting from another player making dumb moves. It happens.
While sweetypie526 obviously (look at chat & gameplay) threw the game in the other players direction
(Lloyd Braun) that wasnt his fault. sweetypie526 was upset and in a quarrel with dysonsphere and decided to break the rules and throw the game to anyone but him.
Lloyd Braun never asked for it and actually told sweetypie526 to "do what you want to do".
Not abuse on his side, it is abuse on sweetypie526 for throwing a game and on dysonsphere for using a lil too colorful language which can/has been viewed as bigotry.
Both those players should get
WARNING's for their respective offenses that they committed.
