1- blurr out the names of all other runners. Just show the points and rankings. This way gters won't know who to throw against. This shoukd be visible only to admin so that even mods can't tell anybody.
Option 2- do not display the standings at all until someone reaches 2k points. This way players play without stress and have more fun and play to their win condition.
In both options mods will face some issue tracking cheaters. But if admin can occasionally check the round stats, they can inform their role mod team to investigate the games of the people. They will be able to see all the info except points and rankings.
I am not sure if any of the above option is a good idea. At the face of it I think it is worth giving a shot. I want others to discuss this so I can see all angles of this.
Please share the pros and cons and the loop holes.
For example, people can still see the stats somewhere else, so we need to do something about that too. We should try this once.
the best way to do this is to make every setup in one round anon deck. if we did it your way then a meta abuser or cheater will just tell their friends how many points they have, the only thing you accomplished is making it harder for the community to realize someone is cheating
Maybe their can be an official competitive anon deck so every setup doesn't have to be Mario?
Maybe lucid could implement (lol) another feature that allows the before-game setting of anonymous players, so that you don't have to remake all comp setups anonymously.
what does available mean? it's not implemented is what im saying. good suggestions rarely get implemented because admins are afraid of change or being the next arcbell. they don't want to be the ones to do it.
this needs to happen, as well as some other thing that was suggested recently that i forgot about. edark you need to actually get on good suggestions when they are actually suggested

Actually, I think the first option is better, since most GT happens in the last days.
We have a name masking feature for the mods. If the names are allowed to be masked on the round thread then users can pick random names. It should be such that if any player other than the admin clicks on the names, then it shouldn't show anything. It should not be linked.
