I think the primary cheat is not the number of the score, it’s knowing if groups are truly dead or alive.
The point here, the fundamental thing underneath it, is “do we want people advertising ways to cheat at online Go here in our forum?”
This is a great tool for FTF. I’d love to be able to score instantly in that scenario.
Just don’t bring it here, eh? Don’t advertise all the other ways as well. “Oh, nice tool, here is another one like that”.
Really?
Do we OGS want to hear about these, here in our online go club?
In which case: do we really want the anti-cheat efforts currently being invested in?
Why didn’t the OGS community pile in here saying “take your online cheating tool away please”?
It may be just human nature to complain like mad when we’ve been cheated against, but at the same time love to discuss and share the latest cool tools that can be used for cheating. But it sure doesn’t help the anti-cheating effort…
