When I follow the link in the notes i see that the winner of yesterday's tournament (not...123 from India) has its account closed for cheating.
When I click the other link in the corner description it's the tournament from April and the same situation: winner cheated (account with Japanese flag iirc).
That's really sad. Are they maybe even the same cheaters? Can c.c check from what ip and/or country they connected?
https://www.chess.com/stats/live/blitz/gentakojima/0 that account was created just a month before the tournament
https://www.chess.com/games/archive/notfix123?gameType=live&gameTypeslive%5B%5D=blitz that account was created just a day before the tournament!
Maybe only accounts with a decent history should be accepted?

Maybe chess.com can see if the IP is the same, but we don't have access to that kind of information. We're looking at ways to stop these cheaters so that the tournament is fair for everyone.
