No, but it obviously means the game wasn't using the banlist which means it is irrelevant as far as warnings and bans are concerned. You are lucky if he counts your sitout.

Hmm, next time I commit a crime I'll make sure to do it with a criminal so it doesn't count! Even if I didn't know he was a criminal until half way through our crime.

I mean, basically it's just on the host to do the super cursory check of reading the ban list and asking any smurfs what their IDs are. This is like a 2 minute thing the host has to do. Otherwise, it's not actually a ban list game. Anyways, these were just warnings, and rayn still gets his sitout.
Maybe I can suggest a fix? I could manually do the banlist verification myself (instead of having the hosts do it) at the start of each game, if people would prefer that. I don't really play or host any more so this wouldn't be too much of a burden on me. Hosts could just PM me at the start and I'd compare the two lists, if they wanted.
I'm not sure this would actually work better, but it's a thought. What do you think, HF?

And the problem is that it was in the thread that Dr.P was thrawn way before the game started.

I probably could have checked the list of names (including thrawn, whose name was known) against the banlist, but this seems like something the host could usually handle, right? I'm open to suggestions.

For real though, everyone in that game signed up knowing full well it was a banlist game. Nobody in that game thought "Hey, I know Thrawn was in this game therefore despite it saying it's a banlist game, it's actually not."
If they knew that then they did not mention it to the host and that's sneaky and disingenuous.
If they did not know that then they possess the mens rea of the faults. Strictly speaking they knew what they were doing was wrong and thought it was a banlist game and should be punished appropriately. Thrawn doubly so perhaps.
I know it's just a warning and I don't even want them warned because what they did was pretty standard IMO but to discredit the game in such a way seems a bit arbitrary and would set a precedent which I don't think we should be setting.
Also, no, you checking is entirely time consuming and dumb but perhaps a punishment for the player signing up is better? Don't really want to punish hosts. Maybe a host warning so they get babysitting for the next hosting they do and if they fail a warning they need to cohost one.
Dunno seems like making rules for the sake of making rules. Just a slap on the hand and be careful seems more appropriate.

But we would need to change the rules.

I object!
In 2011, milkymoo clearly ruled that the burden of identification lies with the player, not the host.

We could do this! If people think this is reasonable there's no reason we can't change the rules. How about we open a thread to discuss it and see what the community thinks?

I'm pretty sure you don't need a new thread to discuss it, it's pretty self explanatory that if you think you're joining a banlist game then your actions should have suitable repercussions.

It doesn't really matter with thawn though since Kush was banned and played in the game with his alt he's been using for months and no host has said two words about it.
Hell people who were banned and have set out and done other thing were in games with Kush alts and went through the ban process and bh didn't say anything then. So I really dont understand how this is different

Ah, sorry, I probably just didn't notice. The only reason I noticed thrawn was in that game was that he happened to be mentioned in the post and I ALSO happened to look at the ban list to remove rayn's banned game count and saw him there. As a general rule I assume (perhaps incorrectly, now that you bring this up) that hosts who request bans follow the ban list, and nobody in their games isn't on the ban list. I didn't happen to give you extra scrutiny, if that's what you're asking.
EDIT: so, since Kush has been banned (link), there have been two ban list actions.
The first was Normal Game for JAT: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/491693-tl-mafia-ban-list-30?page=42#830 which did not have kush playing in it
The second was newbie student XX http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/491693-tl-mafia-ban-list-30?page=38#752 which also did not have kush playing in it
So, given that I don't actually play in games or host in games any more, in the past 2 months since Kush has been banned, no instance of him playing in a game has crossed my desk in a way for me to say "well this game didn't actually follow the ban list"
So I don't think your last bit about people being in games with kush alts is true. That being said, again, I generally assume that hosts check their player lists agains the ban list, and also check the smurfs and ask them who they are. Maybe this is not a correct assumption.

Is it anti-town? Yes. Against the rules? No. In a same manner you could request a ban to Palmar and sandroba for playing a terrible scumgame. Or to all the townies in LYLO for not posting at all for the first 46 hours or so... None if this changes the fact that it was clearly against their wincon and like I said - if actively working towards your own mislynch isn't playing against your wincon then what could possibly be? What is the point of that rule then? And yeah, you are right. Sandro probably deserves a warning or something too but mostly for inactivity. His play was a disgrace but at least he didn't actively encourage town to kill him. Oh shut up you ass. You know you had me set up for Lylo and that's the only reason you're bitching loudest. I took the appearance of a perfect scum game away from you, boo hoo.
