This is more of a concern than an outright accusation but I'm suspicious of the ratings of two particular players in a tournament. I am enrolled in the 48th Chess.com Tournament 1201-1300. Note, that I have not played either of these people so this isn't a case of being a sore loser.
There are two players who now have ratings that are 1600+ and that seems like incredibly rapid advancement. In fact, the highest ranked players is at 1672. Here's a link to the player list and you'll immediately see who I'm talking about.
Maybe everything is on the up & up but it should be looked in to.
Thank you.
