IF there are cheaters found do the prizes get canceld or just transfer to the next ppl in line?
2nd thing

if they're always on sundays gg
nice
....
@zealous silo @glossy hemlock
@willow storm
i smell somthing going on here
mans won the tourny on an alt XD thats not sus at all if thats the same guy
Alt accounts aren't allowed unless permission been given from staff/chess.com people


they say a second account is allowed\
for "learning purposes"
To hide opening pre
lol
https://support.chess.com/article/596-can-i-have-multiple-accounts gotta do the form
YES, Chess.com now allows each member to have TWO accounts, with approval from support. Without support approval noted on the account, this is still considered
tbh i might just cancel my acc and do a new one
my bullet n blitz ratings are so low
ima take nap
@late belfry make sure to disconnect discord if you're gonna close your account
cause otherwise you'll get locked out immediately 
btw as suspected, our winner was banned for fair play.
great start to the discord arena guys
but it was fun regardless 
oh

Dang I missed it. 😞
how do u even find if they used bot
and how did u find it so fast
oh bruh 98.5 accuracy
Various factors, not just accuracy
wow this is so suprising im shocked he was a cheater like shocken to my core ..... totaly didnt think that from the begining
i wish there was a systym to counter that ingame
Hey I did not get my prize i am wondering how to get it
yeah, still gotta wait for a fair trial. an analysis from the fair play team.
@shy kernel yes you did! you just have a gotham knights role hiding your arena champ one 🙂
oh you mean the prize for first!
I'm 800
thank you for the role, But what about my diamond
I was
whats your IGN
forgot that was you, lol. prizes will be given out soon, we're just doing some fair play checks in all winners. (as you can see, lol)
its my discord
we'll get in contact with you 🙂
alright
just to let you know i have a free trail of diamond already
will the prize override the free trial?
nah, it will start once the free trial ends 🙂
Alright
congrats btw!
thank you
@shy kernel you know your the first person im looking at with a new acct that look LEGIT!!!! Congrats and if you are cheating then your really bad at it lmao Great job at wining that with all them cheaters somthing you did that fish couldnt now me lol
I mostly play chess in-person with my parents of course, And I have been playing with my family ever since we had a chess board its just that I am sort of getting used to online chess
Welcome to discord @shy kernel 
Can I play you I want to improve and the only way to improve is to play ppl better than me
Well also study openings bit ye
sure whats your ign
Ok
me:Mom can i have a GM title
Mom:we Have GM titles At home
The GM title At Home:https://www.chess.com/member/rozentuzjazmowany
LMAOOOOOO
2023 bullet is pretty good
seems consistent too
i only hit 2000 in bullet once but then dropped off a few days later
its not his rating its his PFP
yeah he's not a gm
never trust the anime pfp https://www.chess.com/member/aiwoaiwo
HAHAHA NO3 JUST GOT BANNEEDDDDD
Gee i wonder why 
no10 acheved for me lol
Is there any way to see the arena on mobile? 
@willow storm how do i know that you sent me diamond
@shy kernel read #1076958515215728681 message
Well i accidentally had 2 cuz I made them when I was young and didn’t have access to one of my emails
So I had to work my 300 elo 10yo me account up and I’ve gained 500 elo in the last mount lol
Can I have the membership then?
Seems quite sus that top where people who just made there account
@willow storm will we get a final leaderboard after removing the cheaters and non connected people ?
LeBron James and the third Guy were cheating
sadly the medals received in chess.com wont change anymore, but for the discord prices yea they wont count
Idek where i placed in this
you can see results soon, we’re working on getting the event reviewed for fair play
2 wins the rest my games loses n 1 draw I'm goated 😎
ppl honestly thought it was smart to cheat on the OFFICIAL CHESS.COM DISCORD ARENA composed of RATED GAMES for PRIZES 💀
cheating is dumb in general, but that’s like trying to rob a police station

People are desperate
its super easy to create alt accounts, I don't think those people care all too much
low risk high reward
142nd place 😎
we have systems in place to track that. doesnt matter the account, not high reward. no reward. cause you’re not winning anything if you cheat
not knowledge, not time, and for sure not any arena prizes
lol
cause again, we have those reviewed for fair play
a clean name is worth more than anything you could ever achieve with cheating

systems? the only system i can think of is ip tracking, but even that can be bypassed by a vpn. I've seen numerous cheater accounts have alts with names almost identical to the cheater, and finally nothing happens
yes there is no high reward because cheaters are too stupid to understand
but in the cheaters' eyes its high reward
just cause ppl break the rules, doesnt mean we’re not actively hunting those who do. if you’ve seen those PLEASE report them. that helps a lot.
You can also join the cheating forum, linked in server faq
those people are actively working towards promoting fair play on the website
It sucks, and we all wish those ppl weren’t around, but imho anyone who cares about chess should really stand against those bozos and be as proactive and helpful as they can towards getting those ppl out of the website.
be it here, be in in other chess websites
we cant fight this without the community’s help, is the point im trying to make
Collective efforts are beautiful
I didn't join any tournament just to clear up some confusion
have prizes been given out yet
Hi
so your not the same guy i @ who got banned??
how is he still in this discord if his chesscom was banned
not even locked out
I've heard that chess.com gives priority to reports where the player reporting is good at reporting, in terms of
number of cheaters banned per report/total number of reports,
is this true?

chess.com’s current objective is to maximise playerbase, and increase the growth of chess
Most players are minors, who are unwilling/unable to submit any form id just for a chess website
that was a option at one point but the disconntinued it
Eggs-actly!
🥚
role
Would be awesome to have the id on chesscom
Like identified players only playing against identified players
Like on cs go
Less cheating would occur
Maybe make it only linked accounts can play in the future (ik I haven't bothered to yet but will do eventually lmao) so then people will be less likely to cheat
Have the prizes given away yet?
Nope

Congrats!
thanks
Yay ggs
congrats guys!
ggs
I was so close to top 3 lol
you really were lol
ye
Hi
i’ll take 11th 🥳
Mittens is back..
NO NOT MY NIGHTMARES
Let's gooo!
XD how did fair play look over 1
Omg I was 24th
Can't believe there were so many cheaters
i mean yeah it was bound to happen but his avarage acc is higher than hikaru
I can't believe I moved from 26 to 20
i expected to be top 100
no accusing anyone by name but still funny
5 in the top 20
and someone who didn't connect/wasnt part of the server/didn't get in contact
Sounds like Hikaru's skill issue
Lol I must thank this guy cause because of him I got his place
I’m stronger, I’m smarter I’m BETTER
can we have the tourny only avalable for trusted players with accts over 14days old next time
that would solve l lot of problems
This means there'll need to be a trusted only announcements channel
Maybe a legend league announcement channel
Sounds good as well
no just say you can only get the reward if you acct is over 14 days old and linked to a trusted discord
Plus trusted role means nothing about fair play
congrats winner
but its more secure
and plus if they last long enough to get trusted there probably not cheating its like a 15% chance
the tourney will always be open for all connected accounts, but we'd have to only allow entrance of those accounts and that's a feature our dev team is still working on. the community team wanted to start those arenas asap cause we know how much you guys like that, so while we wait for that feature, this will be the format
Barely makes a difference in my opinion
two of the banned people were trusted users, for example
winner was not on the discord
cheating becomes hard to detect when you mix it with legit plays or forced blunders/inaccuracies
as far as we know, so he was never going to be considered top 20 here

but we still get ppl who think they're sneaky. maybe it takes us a while longer, but we get em


anyway, we'll get better in organizing those arenas and making them a connected server member only thing, cause right now they're open and connecting is just a prize eligibility
Did you watched all of the games of the top 20?
fair play reviewed all the games of the tourney
can you disclose what fair play acttualy look for in games and accounts? i know it has nothing to do with accuracy and what not cuz i have eyes on an acct that look very wierd and got in top 20 and want to know why its not closed
im 7th :))))))))
Fair play is a software right?
not exsactly
i too wonder the same but am not sure what the fair play team does exactly
fair play is an anti cheat
so that people dont cheat to win
Fair Play is a team of people with many available tools. I cannot tell you about the process, I don't work in fair play
I'm in the Community Team. I literally know just a bit, and I don't know about it enough to say something and be confident I'm not misinforming you guys
where can i join this team lol
Fair Play is actually like. the policies. when we say "against fair play" we mean against fair play policies
there's a team of Fair Play proctors
i should be promoted to owner
frfr
oh well
i should be owner of chess and ban magnus and make my rating to 69000
here's a cool thing to read
Imagine getting paid to watch and analyze hundreds of 300 elo games
yo i think top 5 deserve like gold or sum
coz played too gud
(im not in top 5)
Imagine bashing the job of hardworking staff members who are trying to make a website YOU USE a better place and who are actively working to make online chess a more legit way of playing.
what anitta said
Dude I'm joking

I just find it extremely funny that there's people who's doing this
or scared
#scared
#scared
I mean. it's mostly softwares, but you cant just have that be a software
anyway
#scared
owning a software is ez
wdym

I gotta work

👍
writing your own confidential software is a job
see yall around, congrats winners. I think top 3 got diamond gifted already
see ya
Is there anyone in this discord that is on the fair play team that you know if?
how old r u
can confirm 47
ALSO how do i get that cool purple role lol

You become a friend of the server
I will not tell you guys that, you will fill up those people's DMs with this guy is cheating
instead of reporting
friend of the server explanation is pinned in general
yo
see ya
if you think someone is cheating, report. it opens up a ticket for the fair play team to check them out. we take cheating very seriously, which is why there's a whole team of hired professionals on that front.
dam welp tome to sart grinding time here
wanna know how i roasted someone
XD
?
they were saying "1v1"
huh
































































1. [f4] e6 2. g4 Qh4#

mate in 2
i think he tryna rizz ngl
yea gifs no worky here
I can only see the first move and I guess it has something to do with fool's mate
lol
im still happy i reached top 1 at 1 point
Weekly Arena #1
wow
got #76 lmao
I mean i hope not any cheaters are up there
Congratulations 👏
True pain when you miss that fr
Oop
wait when is the flairs going to be given out
by the way @willow storm couldn't it become a swiss tournament instead of a normal arena ?
I feel like everyone getting the same numbers of matches is more fair for everybody
why
fair play team seems fun
bc swiss is less popular idk why
anitta does this mean im gonna eventually lose my nice flair 😦
I Cheated and got banned lol
massive L
i just made it obvious
sucks to suck
there ain't no way
what
just get better?
I'm higher rated than you
When will the next arena be held (time?)
💀💀
you become GothamChess🗿/j
And what's the problem with that?
js means it doesnt matter ur better
mhm, right
right
Hmmm
pairings are by rating
third place was literally 1085. 5th place was 795.
what was the time control for the arena
3|0
Anitta
Why isn't a swiss format possible?
I mean, just consider the fact that because of the pairings by ratings low elo players get an advantage as their games often are done quicker because of early blunders
Yeah so everyone has same chances?
How many players joined that arena
Or on the same idea, lower elo games tend to be faster because both sides moves faster
Also there is scholar's mate 🙂
Next arena when tho
@willow storm can you give me the arena flair again? I left accidentaly
I think around 350
Why am I being ignored 😭
My bad 🤷♂️
there's no way you can't get higher than 900 as a 1800 rapid
unless you only play 30min games and really need a lot of time for each move you make
and no it's not sandbagging if you don't do it on purpose
its just called being terrible at the game
you are barely better than him
soooo. You are quite full of yourself , aren't you?
theres a reason you dont have this role
When's the next arena tourney?
Which is?
i believe sunday
How to win first place in the tournament:
- Create a new account
- Get yourself to under 200 elo.
- Win every game in the tournament in 4 moves using the scholar's mate.
cheese?
I am in
Swiss is a whole lot more fair compared to arenas honestly.
yep
i still havent got my flair sadge
Tho tbf it would be meaningless to get it diamond on a new account unless you have a pretty new account n don't mind losing your progress
Stop supporting Gotham Knights and then it'll be visible
were we supposed to get the arena flair on chess.com
Ouch I got a warning for this lol
Is the next arena in like 13 hours?
Good question
True
Oof
Wait I'm going to be at school💀
Does the arena start in 37 minutes?
Yeh
sicillian
defense
Anyone else have school during the weekly arenas? 💀
what time is it
School nights 
mainland us moment
@willow storm where is prized tourney
@willow storm my game in the arena just got aborted
because the tournament ended
but i was up a lot and could've gained a lot of rating
they even offered a draw
which would have given me +7
but then the game just aborted
and i gained nothing
nooooooo I got 7 games in
thats because the arena timed out
that always happens
no some arenas allow you to finish the game
and how is it fair
i could've gained 15 rating
ive never had an arena let me finish so idk
@willow storm how will the bongcloud starting squares be formated?
swiss arenas
