Thanks everyone for posting. I agree 100% with what blid said. I believe I did say he messaged me and asked if I was going to attack him but like I said, we didn't plan a kill run. We both used different attacks at different times. You can check the news and see. If it was coordinated they would all be the same type and at the same time. That's pretty easy to tell even though it could happen just by coincidence, however, this did not happen with us.
Let me give an example of how this rule doesn't work....
Next round if I GS everyone in the game on the same day, and 1/2 of them GS me back, all within hours or days of each other, then 1/2 of the game will get banned, am I right? I'm doing nothing wrong because I'm solo, however, you can not tell if they were acting together or not if they all hit back according to the way the rule is set up and if you treat them with the same consequences you did bobby and I then they would all HAVE to be banned also.
I believe one solution could be to see when the attacks were done... if we were attacking in sequence or concurrently and using the same type of hit.
Another solution that I believe would work is to check if they were retaliations. If I was participating in a KR for no reason, then I would understand, but if I am retaliating, and someone else is retaliating also, we should both be eligible to retaliate however we want.
The rule needs to be specific and have ways to differentiate between organized hits and coincidence attacks, before actually banning a player. One days worth of turns lost can make a big difference in the outcome of the round even if the ban is lifted.
Sorry bobbyata. I wish we would have coordinated if we were going to get banned for it anyways. At least then all 3 of us would be finished instead of just us 2 victims while the attacker is sitting in a top spot. Good luck to you in future games.
