3rd Party Assistance! 😠(let's call SwissG.)
In an OTB blitz tournament, I saw one instance where a game had to be completely re-played because a 3rd party called the flag. That's the environment I'm used to.

Originally posted by SwissGambitThe game had to be replayed? The 3rd party should get some penalty - i.e. disqualified from the tournament - but the players in the actual game couldn't do anything about that, right?

Originally posted by heinzkatGame had to be replayed because there is no way to remove the taint of the outside interference, even though neither player was at fault.

I do not remember whether the 3rd party was entered in the tournament or not. If not, it is more difficult to sanction him.
