three ;)

hehe...just saw the third looking over the stats.  I am surprised that a well known player that has railed against "behavior of players bringing down the game" is one of the accomplices.  

*edit* Looks like they are using the handle of a veteran player with a slightly different spelling to make it look like the veteran player is involved.

I really don't think it happens that often, and HTC does not allow an IP address to have two counts (as far as I know).
I'm not a big fan of this idea because people will be mistaking friendlies for enemies, just like in the FSO. Now if the FSO this is generally not a problem because everyone always coordinates their tactics like in reality, in the MA most people don't do that. Don't get me wrong it's a good idea, I personally just don't really like it.



Just for the record, IFF existed during WWII.
IFF didnt exist until the vietnam war

IFF was first developed and used in World War II.  The first IFF system was the FuG-25a used by the Germans.

Interesting stuff I see in the stats. I guess you didn't inform HTC yet? ;)

I was tempted to.
