I really enjoy playing against the Ilja-clan, so I really do not care if they are colluding!
It seems A LOT of the FFA-players are very aware of that you can expect Ilja, Crassus and Felix to play together, which results in that everybody else forms formal or informal alliances against the Ilja-clan.
This means that the Ilja-clan does not really get any real advantage out of "cheating".
If this was a problem that was widespread, and many other players did the same thing, we would need to ban the players doingt this to get rid of the problem. But as long that it is just Ilja-crassus-felix, i really think we should just laugh about it, instead of getting upset.
I honestly never felt that Ilja-crassus-felix in any way fucked up the game I am playing.
Instead, what I have felt, is some extra inspiration and motivation when fighting the Ilja clan!
Ilja-felix-crassus seems to almost only play on map europe, which makes it very easy to avoid them.
For me, it seems i just cant resist signing up for games where they are all in.
I like and enjoy these games, and certainly do not want Ilja-Felix-crassus to stop creating these fun Europe-games!
