I don't understand what this means. Do you mean to say that you selected Tiger's
opening choice DURING the game? If that is the case, then I would have thought
that was cheating. Otherwise, I do not see how the operator can influence the
outcome of the game unless you make a mistake by entering a different move from
that which was played or gain time by transmitting the moves faster.
