I don't want to harp on this anymore than I need to, because the damage has been done and we're doing our best to mitigate it all. But here's some personal recommendations to Team Wushu as a whole when they do this:
1) Make your intentions VERY CLEAR to everyone in the room before they start putting money into the decap pot.
2) Whenever anything like this is happening, in terms of bet rigging and all that, explain the situation to EVERYONE in the room so that they stay informed. Give them info about what room to go to next.
3) Always contact a mod when there's a problem. Pirate was there at the time, and he banned 2 players for bet rigging. That really should have been the end of the story.
4) Try to keep track of who's put in what. Because even though through transaction histories we can conclude TW members made the biggest portion of the decap prize, there were plenty of people who added to it and never got the chance to earn it back. One of the top 5 biggest contributors to the decap prize was Rekd, and he was kicked.
5) Have someone on IRC when it happens, just in case.
Thanks guys, much love
