"You lost to a cheater. Refund 6 points in Blitz"

Really? How the hell does one cheat in blitz?

i played cheaters in bullet 2+1. In blitz it's much easier because you have more time.

ive played a cheater in 1+0

how do u cheat, like coding cheats

you use a chess engine

They have software that does OCR on screen on looks directly from HTML board situation. Latter seems to be easy

extra "go strong" button atb ottom left and "gentleman" did it by himself. Dunno javascript but I guess is not that different from other programmin languages. And only 100 lines needed

I guess people cheating on very small time limits have use something like this. On sites like ICC it is eaven eassier as the protocoll well defined and one use 3rd party client. most of them being opensource attaching engine into them is quite simple.

This conversation is extremely effective and 'does stuff'.
One of many things that it does, is that it elevates suspicion.
The rest of the things that it does don't need to be discussed.

This conversation can't die fast enough.

Loose Lips Sink Ships.

i guess onyx is saying "don't give cheaters ideas", about the "suspicions" raised by the topic i'm not sure. I couldn't decrypt that message. (update: after having watched the video i understand the suspiciouns part)

i like to say that it does not matter how one cheats at the local end, in the end it is their game moves over the whole game, that gives them away, as far as i understood, making developments on the extent that people have access to open source code a reason for easy cheating a moot point, i think.

This bottle-neck against cheating does not have to micro-manage the user interface tweaking, i believe, that's why you get refunded, without even having made a drama about cheaters being everywhere.....

how do u know if there cheating?
