There is no way to prepare for any possible cheating methodology. I could hack headers and fake 10,000 emails that would be virtually indistinguishable from the real thing. Sophisticated or not, whether they were clever enough to prevent cheating is a moot point. They actually did discard an obvious attempt to throw the match (the tossed queen). Hence, they did actually intervene to prevent what was obviously dirty pool by someone. Sometimes the least prudent attack is the one that succeeds. MS did nothing wrong in my view, unless they deliberately violated the rules. It appears that Irene may have had some assistance (though this is only rumor), which could explain why her analysis shone like the sun.
