There's also the 'cover your tracks' possibility. At week-long, multi-troop Boy Scout campout (they called it a Jamboree, but it wasn't the big national one), my brother and some friends spent the second night running through most of the camps, including their own, pulling down tents. The only camp they didn't hit was the one in second place in the multi-event competition (my brother's troop was in first). Guess who everyone blamed for the tenting? Guess who got no sleep the rest of the week from other troops taking 'revenge'?

Hitting every team but your own makes it blatantly obvious where the culprit is.

Ok now that's sneaky and kind of worrying that kids would think of that

Do note, that creatures from every team have been removed, and there have been more than one person doing it. And while removing other people's creatures from the Image Free Nursery is unsportsmanly and shitty, regardless of the reason someone does it, it does not block others from playing. It may slow down the growth of the creatures, but they can always be re-added once one notices they are missing.

Evil does not understand beauty for it can never possess it,
so hidden away, secretly, in the dark - It destroys it.

Do note, that anyone else found removing other people's competition creatures from the Image Free Nursery will face the same.
Thank you for keeping us updated Rosehill! :wave:
That's a bit of a relief, thank you for the update. I hope that serves as an adequate warning to any others who may still be doing it.

And yay a score update, let's organically farm more spuds team Taters! :woo: :haha:
