I admit that user:SSS108 and I [[user:Andries]] have been edit warring about the article [[Sathya Sai Baba]], but none of us violated the three revert rule. There are many disagreements between us, but the latest revert war was about a totally new addition and was only two reverts old, so the blocking by [[User:Freakofnurture]] with the stated reason of violating the three revert rule was completely unjustified.
Can you please unblock us? Thanks in advance.
Sincerely yours, Andries Krugers Dagneaux [[user:Andries]]

You reverted twice on the 24th as well thus you have 4 reverts in 24 hours

I thought that the counter in the three revert rule would be reset to zero if the revert is completely unrelated to other reverts, which was clearly the case here, but I may be mistaken.

Yep, read the rules [[WP:3RR]] - 3 reverts to the same article, regardless of relatedness. I agree, it's not totally intuitive, but the goal as a whole is to reduce reverts, not to encourage game playing.
