Summary of scenario's at hand:
Ozn is being accused and currently banned for;
Dieing out (3rd death) during a double KO versus Legacy in a playoff match and quick attaching to a teammate and repelling before the bot sent him to spec.
I believe that we are all in agreement that after dieing 3x (out) there is a short delay where your ship respawns at a random coordinate and the bot sends you to spec for being out. During this "short delay" a player has enough time to attach and shoot off a repel or item before they are speced. I believe we all agree that this is cheating and should be enforced with a ban. However, there are gray areas in between and I believe this is where we fall in Ozn's situation.
After a lengthy discussion and speculation on the events that occurred, the players on our squadron involved in the match (Ozn, 7th, Inertia, Devious), have agreed on what we believe happened.
Ozn and Legacy engaged each other which ultimately led in a double KO. When this occurred Legacy's ship disappeared as normal and respawned somewhere on the map outside of where we were fighting and he was sent to spec. However, Ozn's ship never respawned normally in a random location of the map. After the double KO, OZN due to a known but rare glitch in the game, respawned in the same exact spot he died. During the frenzy of battle this glitch respawn is usually not realized immediately because it is not normal. At that point he killed legacy out, he died out but never respawned normally, instead the glitch kept him in the same spot he died and he immediately repelled thinking he never died. After the repel he was specced... this incident was so confusing that our entire squadron didn't even realize what had happened and we continued playing. After the match was over we all left and were unaware of the BAN that caerbannoq had issued. It wasn't until later when ozn tried to enter the zone he saw he was banned until october and had no idea why.
There are 4 players on each team that were involved in the playoff match where the incident occurred. I believe those 8 players would be the best judge and jury of what actually occurred. They should be involved in the investigation and decision in what ultimately happened. Obviously Caerbannoq, whom was in spec on the opposing team, should know that his bias will play a role in the decision. Therefore, being reasonable, Caerbannoq should refer to the players whom were involved in the match as well as a council vote if needed. I think we can all agree that if the players playing the match felt like OZN intentionally cheated in any way then justice will be served. Lets please all be reasonable here.
