Comments: Before commenting on the accused, I feel it necessary to give a little background info on this game. This was involved in the site hiccup on April 18th (viewtopic.php?f=4&t=84245&p=1965134#p1965134) which resulted in a sequential game having 2 green lights. This made it possible for one player to not take their turn for potentially days without being noted as missing turns, even if they don't play for 2 or 3 rounds. And though they might be skipped in rounds, they still are awarded all the deferred troops due.
For some reason, this game was never deleted or edited when other games were. We have continued and had a very entertaining game, possibly because of the 2 green lights. But now it is down to 3 players, and, though I've been eliminated, I'm still keeping tabs on it since it has been such an interesting game.
I have no complaints about this game from while I was playing, not even the glitch caused by the site hiccup from April. But I'm now seeing a player intentionally not playing and stocking up on deferred troops. Synigma (blue) last played on round 290 (Oct 3rd). The game is at present time on round 298, and this player is due 21 deferred troops, which would give him more troops than either remaining opponent. If this game would be operating like normal, he would have deadbeated at least 4 rounds ago.
I noted what Synigma is doing in chat yesterday with a warning shot about ratings and player tags, but have seen no response. Nor has he taken his turn. Technically, because of the way this game has become, this player has not done anything illegal. But as noted, this player would no longer be participating in this game under normal circumstances.
