Auditing a Full Crossplay Game

A single suspicious move is a coin flip; a whole game is a story. If you genuinely want to know whether a Crossplay opponent leaned on a solver, the answer lives in the pattern across their turns, not in the one play that annoyed you. This post lays out how to audit a game move by move and read the results honestly.

Why one move is never enough

Luck and skill both manufacture the occasional perfect turn. Across thousands of games, brilliant one-off moves are not just possible — they are guaranteed. That is exactly why fixating on one screenshot leads people astray. A game audit exists to average out that noise, so a real signal has room to separate itself from ordinary variance.

How to audit a game move by move

Work through the opponent's turns one at a time. For each, reconstruct the board as it stood before their move, mark the tiles they placed, and run the analysis to get a Suspicious Move Score. Keep the results together so you can compare them. The detector is built to make this repeatable — each move takes only the board and the tiles that changed.

What to look for across the game

Read the whole set, not the peak. A couple of high scores scattered among ordinary ones is what normal strong play looks like. What stands out is a run of consistently high scores on non-obvious, maximal moves — the solver pick appearing turn after turn, in the awkward spots most players overlook. A cluster like that is the thing that is genuinely hard to explain by unaided human play.

Staying fair about it

An audit measures how unusual play is; it cannot see a second screen or prove intent. Use it to decide where to look more closely and how much weight to give your suspicion — not as a verdict about a person. If you keep the process analytical and let the pattern speak, you will end up with a far more honest picture than any single move could give you.
