hrothgar Posted September 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 If a safe cracker cannot open a safe he will take it home where he or she has more time. So making it harder to crack the safe is no solution because the can download the shuffling program and crack all the barriers you put in place at home. You said the need at least 3 boards to crack the code so if you restart the random generater after 2 boards are shuffled the problem must be solved. If this does not solve the problem it means that the random generator used is not realy random and that is the problem which has to be fixed. No offense, but I spend too much time at work dealing with amateurs who think that they understand security to waste my time with internet cranks... (And oh, BTW, the day that you figure out how to crack the hand generator that the ACBL has been using to run every tournament for the last 20 years, I'll start paying attention to your opinion. Until then, perhaps you should listen to mine) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you haven't read it already, this is a good point to start: https://sater.home.xs4all.nl/doc.html Quite clear and simple rundown of the issues involved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 In turn, this means that when I go to the bathroom after playing board 4 in the USBF team trials, I can get all the rest of the boards for this roundIn the late rounds of major team events, they don't allow players to leave the playing area unaccompanied.

barmar Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Do they watch them when they are shitting?No, but you're also not allowed to have a cellphone on your person during the event. If they bring a cellphone with them into the playing area, they're required to give it to the Vugraph operator during the session. But I've never seen anyone pat a player down to make sure they've followed this rule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
