Rule player violated: wearing a brown cat bug when cloning the left side of the barricades inside the base of the mouse
Time of incidents (Note in-game timer or replay timer): around 20:15 time argentina
Any further thoughts: should correct the bug since this a while ago

@Alcaliix

First of all the "time of incidents" blank asks for the in-game or replay timer, not the time of your geographical region.

As of yet there isn't any rule against the use of that "bug", hence your ban request should be and will likely be denied.

Please review the rules found in the following links before submitting any ban requests:

Care to explain what this bug does?

And please post a proper time for the incident.

If it's a known glitch, then it's bannable.

This so-called "bug" lets the brown cat jump across a mouse's line of barricades without any help of items or units. This can be done by standing sufficiently close and parallel to the wall, then use the brown cat's illusion skill, as Arythazin did at around 1:58 of the replay. Whether this move is considered a "bug" has been controversial. Some say it's unfair while others insist it's how Warcraft's mechanics always worked. As a result there's no rule prohibiting this move yet. The map maker Freeze_87@garena is aware of this issue, but he too hasn't written any rule against it in F9.

Overall this "bug" takes advantage of the internal dice-rolling system of Warcraft mechanics. In fact, Blizzard's also aware of how professional Warcraft 3 players take advantage of this system, but still it did little to nothing to fix this issue. Here's a video of a similar "bug" where a well-known professional Warcraft gamer uses a hero to abuse this internal dice-rolling system to jump into a place his hero can't normally go: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFdAB3Ao3f8

So its illusion jumping like in sheep tag? If thats the case its not bannable since its not a glitch, but wc3 mechanic.

This bug is not ban-able, since you can still prevent it just by walling properly. The best way to avoid this is just asking the active editor to fix it.

@arythazin

EDIT: I have already PM'd Tom and Jerry editor about this bug, and I'll be moving this to processed, since we don't ban for illusion jumping.
