i think it is a good thing:
PRO PUBLIC POST:
many people will be interested ... they will check and extend the results ... dozens of people will add their matching results to the body of knowledge ... the accused will have more and more - maybe all - their games tested ... more players will be tested ... more engines will be tested against ... i would be interested to see the results for ALL players in the top 100 ... tested against dozens of engines - on different settings ... interesting.
CON:
innocent victims may regularly be accused falsely ... it may spark endless boring debates ... so and so seems to be a computer user .. no .. yes ... no ... yes ... no ... boring.
Originally posted by zeeblebotthis is not about the mods posting ... it is about everyone else posting ... many people have engines and can, and do, test occasionally.
???? the main con was that exposing any info could greatly increase the potential workload of the mods, by exposing their methods as well and making it easier for cheats to devise new methods.
this is about the general public assisting the mods with simple facts.
this is about giving the mods a large and interesting body of useful facts.
this is about letting the general public form their convictions, if they must, then privately messaging the mods.
the mods would not be exposing their own methods, results and convictions.
the mods job would be easier and more accurate.
we would also be entertained and amused😉

Everybody knows, you fool, that the Game Mods do analysis of the accused's games using engines. There is no way for cheats to reduce their number of matches to an engine without compromising the effectiveness of their cheating.
