In, although I'd want to ask how do you prevent cheating ? And I don't speak about online programs, you can run chess on a PC and simulate your opponnent's move to get the best move you can do..

i will be analysing the logs of the games (hence why i requested them) using several chess engines to check for mistakes/blunders/inconsistencies (besides this, lichess also has a computer analysis feature). the difference in play between a human and a machine is also somewhat obvious, so if a player suspects anything, they can feel free to query it with me.
