Which Admin Punished You: MoneyKidKing
Type of punishment: Ban
Server where you received the punishment: Dodgeball Servers

How long they punished you for: Permanent

Reason why they punished you: Use of macros assisting gameplay in our tournament

Reason why you think this punishment is unfair/uncalled for/biased, etc: I was accused of doing something I never did, and of which I was accused of doing, was similar to other players in the tournament (refer to Tournament Clips), as well as different from the actual macro I was accused of using.
If I had the same skill as the similar players I mentioned, but had higher sensitivity, of course my flicks would be more exaggerated and faster, as well as guaranteed to be reasonably effective and accurate since I main that sensitivity, just as those other players main their own sensitivity.
Using the macro that I posted when I was banned before can show the difference between the clip of me flicking, and the actual macro flick, my hands naturally are jittery, and you can tell this by the tournament clip. After seeing that, then testing the macro itself, it can be seen there are clear differences if you look at the clip in slow speed, such as how I look down again after flicking down for the wave, etc.
It has been 2 months since I was banned before and I have had the time to get better, meaning I don't need the macro to be able to wave, and plenty of other players can wave/flick just as I have.

Reason why we should remove the punishment: I was not using macros during the tournament, nor have I been since the previous ban.

Tournament Clips:
1. Me, when I was accused, https://clips.twitch.tv/OpenCrepuscularClamYouWHY
2. DragonFang, most of his flicks are similar, https://clips.twitch.tv/SillyBetterLorisRaccAttack
3. Luna, near the end of the clips also did similar flicks, https://clips.twitch.tv/CallousPiercingOxAliens and https://clips.twitch.tv/WittyLazyPigeonNomNom
4. blawnd E, near his death flicked quite similarly, https://clips.twitch.tv/ExcitedObliviousGooseTebowing
I can provide more if this is not sufficient.

Based on the evidence provided, I still personally believe you were using macros on our server. I am going to wait on input from other dodgeball admins before coming to a complete verdict on this case due to the potentially questionable evidence that has been provided.
