Comments:
Picture the following situation: There are 5 players left in the game. Three did not hold any bonuses but still had one stack of about 40-60 troops. Two players were receiving good income (10-16 each turn). One of them was me. In my opinion, I played that game near perfectly (if such a thing exicts) until the following point: Flape cashed in a group of 10 from cards and threw is whole stack (45 troops) at my wall of 55 troops. After that he only had 3 troops left devided over three regions (three regions with one troop each). After him, idusmars (the other player with a loot of troops) takes his turn and sweeps the three remaining regions from Flape and breaks me because my wall was already down.
Of course, it is no problem if they work together. However, in this case, Flape intentionally threw the game by suiciding. Regardless of the other players involved (if it against me or if I benefit), I don't think this is acceptable behavior. In my opinion, its really abusive and detrimental for game experience if people start throwing games by suiciding on one player so they can start a new game. Although, I'm not 100% sure if this is against the rules, I chose to still report it. Maybe someone with authority can tell him that this is ruining games.
A second thing, although I have absolutely no proof whatsoever, I suspect Flape and idusmars of coordinating this move outside the chat. This because game Game 7048441 is a 'fogged' game. And idusmars could not have known that the wall was down. One turn before idusmars already scouted my wall and decided he was not able to break it alone. There was no chatting between these two turns that coordinated this move and still he moved in again after Flape suicided.
I would really apreciate it if these two things can be investigated.
Kind regards,
Sepp Jansen
