chess questions
hey guys, im working on a chess related reticulum thing, how would one implement ELO since we cant trust anyone? a couple of stockfish matches?
i was thinking about using ratchets for sharing elo data and shit.
also, is lxcb a good name(lightweight extensible chess board), i wanted to call it lxct(chess transport).
also im wanting a mastdon type of connection model, probably not good.

Reply: i will try out making a FICS server, and when a player wants to "export" their elo, make a stockfish match.

Reply: Wouldn't the best way to not get cheaters be to not implement a ELO system? Less reason to cheat - less cheaters. Good luck on the project!
