The good folks at RHP try to keep it an honest site by comparing your move choice to that of a computer. This is not a one-shot deal, but covers many moves looking for a close match with the moves a computer would make in the same position. The actual details of this method, for good reason, are secret. May I suggest that you play your games without a thought to if your opponent is cheating? That's a distraction and for me just not worth the effort.

edit: Oh yes, also ignore the above 3 poster riff-raffs.

A player called ih8sens used to analyse all his games with a computer after he played them and then memorise all the computers analysis, ready for the next game. It was cheating of a sort, but not quite as bad as using a pure computer.

Maybe naive but why not solve tos violations with simple, easily administered loss of membership priviliges and, in so doing, minimize
if not avoid 'banned from site' litigation risk: (3a) Inhibit if not eliminate by screening new member application email and actual postal
mail addresses for duplication. (3b) Provisional restriction to unrated games. (3c) Provisional restriction to clan and club forum posting.
