In-Game Name:
Santo the Sober (7), Giacobbe Giordano (9)

Skyping or friends playing IRL, sharing info with each other.

Your Account Name: PQRnHack
Summary:
I got suspicious when Santo (7) said "it has to be 10" and "9 is my buddy" at around 24 minute mark in the replay. So I looked into it further and found the following evidence to support that the 2 of them are either skyping or chatting buddies who exchanged their role information, resulting in unfair advantage in the game:

1. At game start, they were in adjacent positions, which would be consistent with SC2 party joining lobby together.
2. Per their match history, 23 minutes earlier they played a game of Mafia and were both in the game. I know this doesn't mean much (could be just "play again" scenario), but it doesn't help their case. The 2 mafia games today are their only games today, period (not just 2 games played together, but each player has played no other game today so far).
3. I checked history from previous days and found more games where they played together. See attached.

Recommended Action:
Both: Watchlist x3.
Additional Notes:
Thank you for the report!

Both of them towards the end were confident in each others roles. They never spoke, were never suspicious with each other, and never said anything to the other one until the end when they defended each other. BolderSmokes admitting to out of game information at the end saying he knew it wasn't CrackBandit is something that needs to be taken care of quickly.

Given they both seem to be new to this game, I would still rather give them a watch-list so they get the idea that out of game communication is not allowed. Keep reporting players who you think are doing wrong!
