What a dense Undergrounder, and I am, too, by the way. Please explain what unfair actions you intend to catch with such a counter?
Actually, I'm not going to catch anything with the save counter, except for the most obvious things.
And it has only been useful a few times.
And I no longer understand the nerves about the existence of a program that reads the number of reloads.
Who does it give any advantage to?
There are some things that can only be useful to tournament organizers.
Can they be bypassed? Yes, they can. Everything can be.

And I'll take a program that controls the mouse and set it to reload the save all night, thus accumulating any number of reloads, and then I'll restart the battle.
By the way, I'm happy for your two tournament wins. Congratulations.
