The gaming moderation - probably an automatism - detects ELO cheating if you play too often with the same person. Over the years several accounts got moderated for possible ELO cheating for having the same partner too often. While this might be actually a case in most competitive games, in Tichu ha...

ok thanks. my impression was in groups only the admins can post, therefore it would be impossible to communicate / ask there.

Essentially, blind wishing is not always best but may be in a given situation. Also, having imperfect information ...
