Not even a chess clickbait. I haven't read the pastebin (http://pastebin.com/ufTNVPWc) yet, but this is interesting. I wanna give y'all a fist-bump, 'cause they seemed pretty sketch, but also have some questions.
Why is the charge "excessive meta abuse"? What does that mean, exactly, in this context? That they gave up when against each other, or played to each others' win conditions, consistently? Are y'all confident that these games are representative of their play in recent rounds, and not cherrypicked or anything?
Why the 2 month ban? Why not investigate all the games, 'cause clearly this is a serious paste and ban?
they litearlly did nothing wrong, if you cant prove their cheating in like a huge group, u shoudlnt be able to ban them, most runners run w/ 2-3 friends anyways
so i don't actually understand what's going on here, or why it's okay. what exactly is the charge? i'm not understanding the abuse that is supposed to be outlined in this pastebin. pranay is the only person to actually come forth with a charge that "makes sense" (having soft spots).
playing with friends is fine but using that to play gold heart games and having soft spots for friends is not allowed. you guys were warned not to play together in gold heart games.
I revise my previous comments: We never meta abused, but we do know each other well enough to easily read each other. This is known as meta, and is used widely throughout the entire site. I'm not sure what falls under the definition of meta abuse, but I will agree to meta. So. We were banned for meta? nice
don't worry too much, one person throwing when you didnt know isn't your responsibility and it won't harm you; also i don't think you are the type to actually cheat, and you don't deserve such a long ban if it's for meta abuse in my opinion.

Yeah there is near 0 evidence against Burton. 1 game, really...
if he can get proof that we roleshared on some mysterious chatroom dedicated to cheating on a game to win comp, because we're really sad people who have nothing else to do with our lives but throw games so someone can get a digital trophy, ill go delete my account

Hahahahaha in the year 2015 we're banning for meta-abuse which is what every trophy winner has been taking advantage of for the last year
players inherently want their friends doing well in the round to win games; I'm assuming you didn't know he threw in other ruses' favor until he told you right?
