Detailed description
-
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
Players in the game can't see their opponents' moves until they've finished their own moves, but that restriction doesn't apply to spectators. In particular, it's possible to open an incognito browser window to see what your opponent has done. I assume that's against the rules? You could certainly abuse it by copying a stronger opponent's moves through the whole game.
A more minor thing: players can also see if their opponents have used a crossroads before they've played their own turn. -
