This won't work for the simple reason; If you employ the best chess program that money can buy you will struggle to get results. Unless, of-course, the culprits use better technology! Simply put, it is highly unlikely that those than can afford cutting edge technology chess programs will actually waste their Time trying to impress your girlfriend, or mine for that matter..

Originally posted by Hells Caretakerremember the time when a thread was opened about skeets getting above 2400 or so, at that time basically the top. these times are certainly over. she has resigned her games, apparantly because she was very unhappy about how an apparent engine user was taken care off (not). david tebb apparently stopped playing because of similar reasons. some other players have risen to new heights, but that is also not too new, because their profiles were very well discussed some weeks ago... more i can not see in the top of the players tables...
Click ' player tables'. (chough) glace at top?
anyway, i am starting here some kind of soap opera, because is all only written in forums and might not be true (sorry skeeter or david, if this was wrong)...
chess soap opera... would that sell on tv?
Originally posted by Hells CaretakerBefore we go any further, Squelchbelch = Zygalski. And his match-up methodology, same as used by the Mods, has been widely debated, openly discussed, criticised, disputed, pulled to pieces and scoffed at - and still busts cheats convincingly.

As Zygalski says, the problem lies not in the technology, nor in the volunteer efforts of the Mods but - and this could earn me a forum ban - in the [edit] (un)willingness of the Site Admin (ie the owners) to implement the recommendations of the Mods. So rather than have their time wasted and their efforts insulted, the Mods have simply resigned. Some have, or are about to, quit the site.
Henceforth, in the absence of fresh Mods (aka suckers), no one is picking up even the most blatant cheats. And they don't come more blatant than the top group on Page 1
