I’m not 100% behind this, if I remember to I’ll tweak and add my thoughts later. But for one
-An innocent choosing to not try killing a known traitor (but not helping them in any way) is not teaming.
Is absolutely possible to be teaming, even if it’s a minor example. There are rule revisions over the last year or two that lighten the punishments where warranted, but many times like with the strike system accidentally open the door to allowing abuse of the rule. The above note will be one such abuse, as doing so goes against the point of the role you play in the game. Uncertainty can play a part in this rule as there are valid times where rdm may be involved in some fashion, but to blatantly ignore a traitor *is* teaming. An obvious case would be me as a traitor killing jammin by placing a barnacle over his head in front of Bryan who is innocent lets me live and then I also ignore Bryan. Keep in mind that incidents of teaming should be two players or more working in conjunction in most cases.
To note on a previous topic, blowing a c4 in a crowd of people as an innocent will likely be rdm by the innocent. This will be teaming if the innocent knew the traitor placed the c4 by watching him or some other form of communication let the innocent know to blow the c4 in a crowd. However, if that is not the case but rather an innocent tried to disarm a c4 where the innocent reasonably believed is far enough from other players yet accidentally killed a player in the floor above then that should not warrant a slay for rdm.
