Fair Play & Anti-Cheat Policy
Competitive games must be decided by the two players, not by unauthorized assistance.
Prohibited behavior
Cheat tools, modified network messages, impossible moves, clock manipulation, rewarded-action forgery, spectator write attempts, automated ranked play, and deliberately exploiting a defect are prohibited.
Server authority
The realtime server validates room identity, turns, legal moves, clocks, results, promotion rewards, and stale client versions. A client display never overrides the authoritative match state.
Review and penalties
Security events are evidence for review, not an automatic finding by themselves. Administrators can inspect the event trail, state a reason, apply a temporary or permanent ban, and remove a ban when a review supports it.
Reporting
Report suspected cheating to admin@madkidgames.com. Include the player name, room code, approximate time, and a short explanation. Do not publicly harass the player.
