Out of the 4-star swamp

I'm kind of leaning towards encouraging you to send a petition about this. You'll never know what comes of it, as the devs don't share such info - maybe nothing will, but on the other hand, you just might get a griefer caught red-handed.
I'm leaning towards "conspiracy" now. It was sitting at 4 stars again when I saw someone rate it, without any tickets coming my way. Someone must have had to deliberately search for it for the express purpose of 1-starring it.

Priceless, as they say.

I doubt it would do any difference. There's no way to prove that they didn't find the arc on random chance, and as far as I know it's not a bannable offense to 1-star someone at random.

It depends on how far the devs might look into it; could be they find the guy one-starred a number of 5-star arcs that day without playing them.

I'd go ahead and take the chance that something good might come of it, as it's so easy to file a petition, but it's up to you of course.
Here's hoping you can get back to five stars!
How can you genuinely tell if a person's griefing these things? It's not like the log records "I legitimately believe that this arc deserves a 1-star rating regardless of what others may think of it". All they've got to do is start it and, hey presto, irrefutable justification.
