Or write a program to watch parts of your screen (i.e. minimap, resources) for you and make a sound alert when there is movement on the minimap (doesn't even require proper machine learning, you could throw something rule-based together that would work fine) - again, this would be really easy to do. Unless the games are played on computers provided by ESL, and in a room they monitor, you simply cannot prevent this 100%. If anything, having her sit there in plain view is evidence that there is nothing to hide. No. If there's someone else in the room at least don't have them show up on camera... | ||

I brought up yesterday that having no rules in place is probably not good given the possibility of cheating but I also reiterated that I def don't think he is Also it's a fair point that policing it for an online event is probably crazy hard unless you have refs in every country players are participating from lol | ||

You don't even have to drive to the studio like normal, is it too much to ask to be in a secluded room, or at least the appearance of one to seem professional? You have all day to socialize with other people at home, knock it off while you are on camera playing games professionally. | ||
