It´s a big deal because the program expects to play a human opponent and when the person who is running the (C)(in this case Rebel Tiger) analyzes the games played against humans, he will analyze this game too and import it to a database with all human opponents. So, he will get wrong results.. Allthough, it´s just one game but if everybody cheats, then the results against humans will be completly worthless. IMO Alvaro
