Edit: Even better question, did the player's name have the word Museum in it? Spoiler I know covid would make this very unlikely Edited February 23, 2021 by DrHolmes52 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

570 [REKTD] SuperComm4 Members 1,087 posts 13,899 battles Report post #5 Posted February 23, 2021 I’ve seen this before. My team has won in this situation, and also lost. I’ve been on teams that won with 3 AFKs (randoms) or 2 AFKs (ranked) before. I am not sure why this specific occurrence warrants a forum post, however. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would be more interesting to know what the CV player did do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

8 [CGP] Monza406 Members 21 posts 17,420 battles Report post #14 Posted February 23, 2021 WG needs to add ‘suspicious bot’ as a report option. Multiple reports from a single game will identify these bots and hopefully they can get them out of the game! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had this happen a couple of times, in the land of the midnight sun, internet can kick out any time....and I always hope I can get in before the game ends and at least apologize.

388 [OPG4] Boomer625 Members 1,181 posts 2,541 battles Report post #18 Posted February 23, 2021 I bet it was HMS Habakkuk. It ran because that was the direction of the sea current, otherwise it needed another ship to tow it. It didn’t launch planes because the flight deck melted when the planes were warming up their engines. The mystery has been solved! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
