secure PBEM games

[Volcano Man]

Well, as with anything, the game is only as good as the player(s) you are up against. I knew a friend who I played chess with (seems like I said this recently), and when he would get into a hopeless situation he would knock the pieces on the board over. Naturally, that was not very fun so I stopped playing chess against him.

No matter what John does, there will be ways to cheat. We just have to play the right players. The good thing about the Blitz is that once you play enough people, you will establish your own "regulars" that you trust to play against. I am not saying that you should try playing against new people, just that the whole experience is dependent on who you play.
