I disagree with your post:
1) It's funny that Scott's told you the same thing but never left you any neg feedback. I think his negative feedback towards me was unwarranted. I was just playing the game...
2) Even poo-maker has stated that it probably wasn't a suicide considering all factors especially given KoE stated towards the end of the game that I was in position to win had Sauce not finished green off then made it to me after turning in again. KoE- "you miss this and mace wins". How do you explain this given all mentioned in posts above. I was in a position, and had to do what I did because even Scott has admitted that he was planning to win when his turn came. Sauce got damn lucky on those dice.
3) I agree with all your other sentiments though especially about the ignore list and annoying people who come out of the works.
Thanks for considering - it's just sad people are oblivious to the chat where scott says to KoE - "you trapped me" - "oh I moved em" "Thanks" What the hell do you call that...oh I know, don't nobody bother - it's all pretty crystal clear to me now...
Just a game - but let's be clear, I see how it is...I know who to play and not to play now...

well thanks for the controlled response to me anyways...I was assuming the suicide...Ill accept you were trying to win...so the only issue is the accusation of cheating....and I understand how you could misinterpret Koe, but we...meaning players that play a lot...chat like that in many games....myself almost all...ive worked around people, slid past them...but its not cheating...its survival......take a look at some of my games that are escalating...or better no cards...really good players will chat about the game, half the time in an attempt to distract from the real goals, or plans....I do it all the time...I chat all game with one player occasionally....but sometimes take him out first...not always though...
you cant throw out accusations of cheating like that...there are many reasons for what koe did, but accusing him of cheating simply because he posted a friendly remark as he did it, is ridiculous...Ive done that in 700 games....If it wasnt a suicide, then thats great to hear. So that only leaves the cheating accusation, and the post in here which is clearly just a retaliation for the negative feedback. Had you just pmed scott in a few days, explained it wasnt really a suicide, and that youre sorry you called him a cheater, you probably could have resolved the whole thing.
But instead, you exasperated the situation by posting this. You know as we all do, there was no secret alliance there. Either one of them would be far too embarrassed to talk about the game outside of the game. So I disagree with your handling of this, however, Ill remove you from my ignore list...your response was honest and controlled, which I respect, but you should be more careful before throwing out such accusations...If you accuse me of cheating in a game, I will first try to assure you Im not, but if you persist, I guarantee you get one from me too.
