I have been banned for a day for violating fair play rules. I have never cheated, stalled or violated any rules. I only play heads up, so there is no way I could have ever been accused of collusion. I have been a player for over 5 years, I’m a grandmaster, a top 100 player and I have no idea what I did wrong. Is this a bug?? Has this happened to anyone else? I’m really dumbfounded.
#banned for a day.

How many different channels did you post this in? 😅
Quite a few apparently, feel bad for them if it's true though
Are you one of those guys who plays , then leaves for a while and let's the bot play for you and then comes back nearer the end for victory?
@empty saddle Never. I have never cheated or manipulated the game in any way. I never chat with anyone, but to say good game. I’m a clean player. I put in a ticket and still haven’t received a response.
2nd time for me also being banned for no absolute reason . No response from support on my ticket this time . Seems to be a normal thing here i guess . Pretty sad , Risk , which is a board game a lot of grew up to playing harmlessly is now controlled by an entity that can restrict your rights at will . I must have played someone that did not like something . I am also someone thats not into any kind of manipulation of this game .

how often can you collect the 2 free coins?
I have started seeing some players just stack their capital and not make any attempt to take a continent, I was taking the board and wondering when the stacked capital was going to make a move, they never did when they could have done some serious damage.
Don't know why someone would just stack for 45 minutes- seems pointless. But to another player it looks like its a colluding player trying to draw your armies away for their other player to take the board.
Some players use macros to repeat the same move, like stacking a cap, over and over
Some look arco risk on youtube and want to try his playstyle
I just got banned for a day as well and I don't know why. I never cheat. I don't leave and come back. I don't have any hacking abilities and I don't have two accounts or work with anyone I know. I just play a lot of risk. If i was cheating I think i'd be ranked higher than intermediate
What is ur rank
Agreed…I am banned on a weekly basis because the AI flags my account because I play only 1v1 against expert and higher.
My guess is that when 3 players report you (in a day/week) you get a ban.
Happened to me once for "stalling" after an endgame with a guy who attacked in milliseconds.
Apparently others reported me too, I'm usually quite slow.
I guess it's the same for "collusion" - when 3 people think you're sus...
It’s more than that I believe. It has to be more than 1 game worth of players. Stalling might be different because the system can detect it by itself. Reports stay open for 30 days anyway so you could have been reported in other games you forgot about.
I was just banned for the second time. No explanation. I do not interact with any players outside risk. i dont leave to let the robot play and then come back. I have asked for an explanation so if I am doing something i might be able to modify what i do. i play many times a day and play expert and above so i see a lot of the same people when i play. wondered if someone was pissed off because i beat them and filed a complaint. Very frustrating!!! No recourse or chance to defend yourself.
Open a ticket on SMGs website. Nothing we can do here
We can console - could
What? I can only collect the two free gems once a day. If there are free tokens somewhere... let a brother know.
I just got banned again for 48 hours for doing nothing. I thought it might be a glitch. Very confused by it. I hadn’t even been winning either, losing 4 of the last 6 games to start the new season. I just don’t understand this at all.
does it say for what? stalling? collusion? fake bot out maybe?
