Description of the incident:

I was looking out for potential marine caps as hugger 514 and went to investigate sounds of xenos fighting in the backline. As soon as I identified the combatant as a predator, I broke back off towards the frontline. I was in view of the pred for maybe 1-2 seconds. However as soon as I left, the unknown predator began to ignore the combat caste xenos they were fighting in favor of chasing me down across 1.5-2 screens, outrunning and hitting me multiple times with their melee weapon until I died.

While I’m aware that loitering in the vicinity of a pred makes a hugger makes it fair game, this seems like an instance of gaming the system for a cheap kill. I stress that the hugger was in view for 1-2 seconds, only long enough to ID the combatant, and was already disengaged by the time this pred decided to chase it down and kill it, all while ignoring the combat xenos that were actually fighting. Doesn’t seem in the spirit of the Honor Code at all.

Evidence:

None available.

That’s incorrect. I came over to investigate and was already leaving westward when you chased me. I was not in the area more than 1-2 seconds.

Hiya, I was on during this round and I happened to witness the situation you’ve described; although the council and I disagree.

The fight happened to be going towards you (westward from bar) and you were cut down,
Whilst it is unfortunate if you weren’t trying to loiter, that’s how it would’ve looked like to the predator; and even to me, an observing party.

I understand that it’s frustrating to be taken out of a round for 1 minute and couple of seconds, despite it being such an insignificant time it is still /time/. Although facehuggers exist to facehug, and Yautja are very much encouraged to kill any facehuggers that are near them during a fight.

I do not think Castortroy23 (Spear) was trying to just get a “cheap kill”.

CONCLUSION:
Report is denied, this was just a misunderstanding from the eyes of the council and me.
