          The idea of not knowing who is who is fun

            @BIoodthirst So far, this is a trial tournament for intermediate and lower-middle-level players. If you like the format of the tournament and there is support from the community, the tournament will be held on an ongoing basis. Probably once a quarter

              What’s the point in restricting in game chat but not voice chat?

              Or rather, how would you stop people from using voice chat?

                @FtXCommando anonymous accounts that are used to hide the real name of the player, in addition to everything in each new game you will have other opponents and a different person in the team

                  since teams are random, cheaters would often not even end up on the same team. When they are on the same team, they would get an advantage, but with 12 players, 2 cheaters means, from the cheater's POV, there is only a 1/11 chance they get matched to their fellow cheater, and a 2/11 chance that they are opposing their fellow cheater.

                  so for 9% of the games, the cheaters would get an advantage, and when they are against each other, they would have the ability to strategically throw games in favor of whichever cheater had a higher score, so that it's more likely one cheater wins the tourney.

                  This seems like it would be sufficient to discourage most cheating and contain the amount of damage that cheaters could do to the tournament.

                  If there were more than 2 cheaters working together, the advantage would be larger. But that also means a bigger number of people who could rat on you later.

                          OP = opening post. I think you should edit the first post in this thread to include information that you are using an anonymous account - otherwise people won't understand
