A lot of players are so eager to go after their target, that they overextend themselves and don't defend well against being assassinated themselves. Sometimes I see players that are really weak, and instead of trying to recover and stay alive, they might still relentlessly pursue a target that they have no chance in assassinating. I build defenses and if my "assassin" gets too strong, I will attack my assassin instead of my target.

I agree with you that its crazy how some of the people are attacking too much, overextending and then basically taking themselves and you out of the game. I see this especially of Conquer 500 and Monsters. But killing the wrong target is not the answer. Once is a mistake, maybe twice. But making this a practice is not allowed.

2 things here.
1. I have a very low number of "deaths", being assassinated. In certain games I intentionally attacked my assassin. I think there is nothing wrong with that. You can't win the game, and assassinate your target, if you are too weak yourself. So if my own assassin relentlessly attacks me, I strike back, hoping they back off and I can rebuild and still win.
2. I have a high number of accidents. These were not accidents, none of them; there were indeed games where I was at risk of getting assassinated and by eliminating a player who is not my target, I rescued the 1 point awarded for "surviving". Without the 1 point for surviving I never would have done this. I get it that this doesn't make it right and it can been seen as throwing the game. I wonder if I am the only player that did this.

Since this is likely in breach of the general rules of CC, I will withdraw from the remainder of the tournament with apologies to the organizer.
