Let's say I suspected someone webcheating on a memequiz. Now, the obvious thing to do is to just ignore it, and let that person live with their guilt, so on, so forth, et cetera, except that they probably won't be feeling any kind of guilt over it and maybe the kind of elated thrill that inflating a number on the Internet gets them.
This isn't entirely without reason. Recently, one of the players in my ongoing memequiz has been giving answers in a way that defies all apparent trends, and looks almost exactly like a poorly-conceived strategy for trying to not be caught webcheating (like, say, not getting #49).
So, dear LJers, the question is this: given the constraints of reality (ie, iocaine powder doesn't really exist), what is the appropriate way to deal with a suspected webcheat?
And now that's all posted - coming later: books, gateway drugs, and odd reminders about communities.
