AuthorSame IP combat
If we both play to win, can I play with my brother? (who uses the same IP)
Same IP or same computer?
It is INCREDIBLY dodgy and I would stay well clear from it. Make him go to a different house or something, maybe an internet cafe.

The game mechanism blocks you playing a combat with two accounts from the same computer. Even if you use different browsers.

Same IP, we use a router at home. Anyways, I don't think it can be differentiated.

I guess this can be tricked. If the turn timer is like 60 seconds, then one could literally just log out from one account and log in on the other easily. And if the passwords are saved, the process will be really quick.

It can be differentiated by MAC-address.

it is very easy to find it out. just follow the 3 steps below:

1. arrange a battle and start it

2. any of you win the combat

3. show your log to public

so, all you have to do is wait afew days. once you find out both of you cant log in your acc, that's mean you cant do that and it is against rules :)

hence, why dont you just avoid it rather than take the risk? admins have the way to track you, you just never know on that
No, I won't be trying that out on any case, its very risky. Just wanted to know if there's a rule prohibiting it.

What if we are on different IPs during the battle?

There IS a rule against it

3.8.1. Participation of several characters played from one computer in one combat is prohibited.

But there is not the rule against participating in one combat from same IP.
The server will normally only be able to request the router IP address, not the MAC address or the local (192.168.1.x) IP. address. Therefore if they are connected to the same router I highly doubt the server will be able to distinguish between computers
