I assume we are also talking about OTB fide classical ratings for the top 100 and this would need to be caught cheating in an OTB event not online/rapid/blitz etc.

Also in a hypothetical situation where someone delibrately cheated publicly (for example Hikaru/Kramnik/Fabi/Nepo making a video like "This is what it look like if a super GM cheated") would that be counted?

@nicwest06d6 I would not consider your hypothetical to be sufficient to resolve the Market. Cheating for the purposes of a joke or yt video do not count.

also is it someone in the top ten now (as in what Fabi alluded to in his interview) regardless of where they are currently ranked at the time they are caught. or do they have to still be in the top 10 at the time that they are caught cheating?

@nicwest06d6 someone who is in the 100 currently, or was during their time cheating.

to be clear, it isn't enough that it's revealed they cheated in previous years? they must be shown to have cheated within 2024?

@bobbill

@Bayesian must be within 2024
