What are the options? Many people have already given detailed recommendations on what the cheaters need to do. Change your nickname, change your IP, and do whatever you want. In my opinion, the most logical thing to do upon the first detection of a cheater is to prohibit them from changing their nickname! And the administration should track them by IP address so that, God forbid, they don't try to participate in the next tournament under a different nickname. Upon repeated detection, as Hacker rightly points out, they should be banned from participating in tournaments on this forum. Again, track their nickname change by IP address. In this case, if a person still wants to participate in tournaments here, changing their nickname alone won't help if the security service is working properly. In this case, the only thing that will help them is to change their nickname at the same time as changing their IP address, which will incur material costs for the violator, and this will at least be some real punishment, and not everyone will figure out how to do it.
I meant that he may behave differently, he may lie low, he may change his nickname, or he may even go to another forum while we are "judging" him here, or he may thoroughly study this topic, which, on the one hand, suggests that it would be better if this topic were in the moderators' sections, although, on the other hand, we would have to lose many important comments, but on the other hand, the opponent would also lose. And, in order to put an end to this issue, I would like to hear the opinion of the Administrator, of course, Hacker's opinion is important, but it may not coincide with the opinion of the Administrator, because each person is an individual.

It seems to me that we need to take the IP address of each participant in any tournament and store them in a specific database, so that we can track not only one player, but all of them, to prevent duplicates. I think this would be correct, but the question is: is it possible?
The possibilities exist, but whether it is desirable is unknown. Many tournaments are held, and there is no guarantee that the coordinator will want to handle all the workload and may, perhaps, partially miss something
