alexlee: Thanks rod03801 and alexlee, I found it.

But the question here is, if two or more people (not multinicks) play together in a pond, is that really the same as "losing on purpose for the goal of boosting ratings" ? That is at least debatable - I imagine team play could take many forms. Why not remove all doubt and put it in the pond rules? Besides, that's the obvious place for users to look if they are in doubt.

Pedro Martínez: I'm sure the user agreement is posted somewhere, but I can't find it. Maybe it's just me, be I think it's best if the rules are made as obvious as possible.

Vikings: If pawns are allowed in ponds, the rules need to be clarified. For instance, there's nothing in the pond rules about people coordinating their moves and/or playing together as a team. It would be quite easy to have a few friends sign up as pawns and make helpful moves. And only those who follow this board closely have any idea whether this is allowed or not.

tenuki: Thanks for sharing your version of the story. The way you describe things, it was clearly not a case of team play. I think you did the right thing by not joining any more ponds when you knew you would have this advantage. I don't know what you could have done instead, except perhaps not sharing your formula in the first place - but I guess it would have been difficult to see all this coming at that point.

To me, this entire incident is mainly a result of unclear rules and/or rules that are in place but not implemented. It's still unclear whether team play is actually allowed in ponds although it seems like we're all against it. And everybody knows that multinicks, although outruled, are neglected and allowed in practice. All this creates an environment where it's easy to speculate about all kinds of cheating. (Which is why I think this subject should have stayed on the BrainKing.com board - like Gabriel Almeida said, "this is not about ponds, but about BK politics")
