I know nobody cares about my online presence and I've only had the privilege to get beaten up by Bimmel so far, but I was talking with Nintendo about my ban this week and had someone look into it in more detail (Nintendo called it a full "investigation"
). Turns out, I'm not really to blame for the bugs in the game (that's what they said), but because I was being screened just at the time I discovered an entirely new glitch during a battle, I was banned for a week. The good news is, Nintendo said I can continue playing online, however I'd need to create a new NNID. So for now I'm basically banned for life. Yay!
Points to note, if Nintendo UK is to be believed:
1. Nintendo regularly screens battles (am I to understand there are people paid to watch others play...?)
2. Bans are tied to the NNID, not the console
3. Information of a ban is collected and stored by Nintendo

That seems a bit harsh coming from Nintendo.
