Hello! I played a few games in a row with a friend. While I requested an analysis of the first game, we started a new game and repeated the opening. Suddenly I got a message "Cheat detected".
I did not cheat!
This is the first game:
And this is the second:
"cheat detected"when you play is when you have sotckfish 8 opened in the same time on your computer.
you have been caught :)
I did not cheat :( I did not use the engine for playing my games. I simply analyzed a game while playing another one.
these were the same moves, that counts as cheating.
I understand that, but I didn't use the engine or something. Moderators could check my history if I ever cheated. I was not intended.
It doesn't seem to me that the cheating was connected with engine use. If it were, you would be prevented from playing rated games. Maybe it was that the games were exact copied moves...
Well, is it too rare that two low-rated players play two consecutive games and repeat the first 11 moves?
@Sipo You was not marked as cheater. You just lost that one game. Not a big problem, is it?
(Seems that happens to a lot of people and they decided to not tag them immediately, which is wise in my opinion)
@impruuve, yeah but in my history, it says "cheat detected". :(
Ok. I can write an explanation into the observer chat if you want. Like linking to this forum post, just in case anyone cares ;-)
