Please, don't miss the point of my post. My main concern isn't about cheating
and honour.

I have operated Bringer in cct1,cct3 and cct4 for Gerrit Reubold and I am
convinced there hasn't been any cheating in all the games I have seen. I haven't
seen any unfair behaviour either - much to the contrary.

My concern is about the future of the cct's . Will they be able to replace
current official championships some time? I am convinced they will. But we
obviously haven't reached this point yet as Johan's report proves to some extent
IMHO.

Imagine this was an online WCCC and  the result of the game mentioned would have
been very important for him .It would have been reasonable to file an official
complaint to the tournament director based on the information he had IMHO. Would
it have been possible for the TD to find a good decision with the availlable
information? I honestly don't know.

My concern is that the ccts become better and better.

Already now I think the achievement of winning a CCT is compairable to winning a
WMCCC. But it is also clear that the rules still need some work.

Regards,
pete
