Hi everyone,
Not sure it will help, but in case...
I was playing a correspondance game, and at one point, like move 78. I was about to mat in a few moves (Q+K vs lone K).
While waiting for my opponent I entered a previous position in the analysis, like 20 moves before (position after move 57 if I remember right) to see what the computer would say about that final. Instantly the game ended saying: cheat detected and gave the victory to my opponent.
My concern is, how is it cheating to analyse a previous position in a game still running and why the cheat detector doesn't wait the suspected cheater enters the actual position to declare cheat.
Of course I had abslolutely no intention to cheat, it's pretty obvious when analysing my games that I do not cheat. I assume cheaters enter the position in another engine or use another browser.
Hope this could help to improve the cheat detection, also now I have a game saying I cheated where I didn't.
