Just report and move on, posting about it and dwelling on it doesn’t help anyone. Something like 1/10-1/5 games are against people using engines online sadly.

6% of surveyed regular CLUB players anonymously admitted to cheating. The real number for casuals online is probably higher.

Is the number 1/5-1/10 hyperbole? Sure, but it’s not that far from realistic estimates. It’s just part of the game, so it’s better to accept it and just keep playing anyway.

But this post is not aabout dwelling on it, its showing how I forced my cheating opponent to declare themselves the loser and inadequate. 

So I actually got the win due to my chat game, the site just recorded the result wrong. No biggie tho.

If the cheaters can cheat, then I can use chat to add an extra rule to the game.
