    That is actioned immediately because it is close to age end and not a delayed action which i remembered clearly.

    Devs delete sparta after the age and give their friends a crown? What a joke.

    Try not to cheat next age and maybe this time you'll finish top 10
    Or maybe dish out the punishment properly when it happens instead of spreading it over an entire age so that even innocent people aren't Continuously affected by it. This was handled horribly.

Deletion of that pool in itself might have been a de facto chart shape.

    No good options were available to the devs (imho).

    This is why I feel like everyone just lost, even the winners. No one really had a satisfying accomplishment that they can really say "we earned this".

    It is very sad.

    Joke story = 4:6 sent notice to Ze Trolls...ended up getting land lusted thousands and thousands of acres. For a KD that has 22 players, its unbelievable they got placed 7th. Congrats Trolls, we will be watching you next age!

    Yes, this does mean that getting actioned for cheating in yr0, even if all 25 provinces were deleted, would still result in rankings removal at EOA.

    The action taken at the time of cheating (deletion of provinces/suspension/WW removal) was appropriate to remove the in-game benefits they had received from cheating. The removal of rankings is appropriate, as we do not tolerate cheating and there should reasonably be lasting consequences to it. It doesn't matter whether those kingdoms would have finished #1 #7 or #140.
    so to clarify...any kingdom with someone that was actioned for cheating is excluded from crowning? or is it the kingdom that got actioned? or maybe the monarch?
    I don't think you grasp what kind of can of worms you just opened.

    In some cases, provinces are actioned for cheating (e.g. they are a multi, they are logging a friends account, etc)
    In some cases, kingdoms are actioned for cheating (e.g. they engaged in a fake war, kingdomwide bug abuse, etc)

    Depending on the nature of the cheating, the punishment will be tailored appropriately, and removal from rankings is part of the punishment.

    I think it's a bundle of things not just one action from start of age. Let's not forget 1:19 also removed (or did they finish out of top 100?)

    How can anyone complain about cheaters being removed from the rankings? Now people will think twice before pulling shady **** first half of age cause let's face it: You can be deleted halfway into the age and still comeback with this small playerbase.

    Just wish previous owners had the same policy.
    People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.

    They were removed from rankings (which includes island and race rankings), but I'm not sure where they would have finished serverwide.

    I think 2:2 should be given the heads up that they'll be removed from the charts immediately upon the first actioning.
