Greetings everyone. To dispose of any concern that I am asking on how to cheat for negative purposes, I would like to preface my question with the following:
I am a member / administrator on MajorGeeks.com under the username of Kodo. If anyone wishes to confirm my account and the fact that this is indeed legitimate, please send me an email at Kodo (at) MajorGeeks.com and I will reply or merely ask the Owners of the site who I am. Or ask me to post something on MajorGeeks and it will be done.

Now, onto my question. We have a member that I suspect is cheating. The game in question is KF9000 kite flying. If anyone knows if this game is flawed, please let me know. I suspect a dozen or so other games have been "bypassed" in some manner, either by the game being bad or this person somehow "posting" altered data. I'm leaning to the latter.

I would like to gather as much specific information I can on how the arcade is by passed (and by god don't post the specifics in this thread!) via e-mail correspondence or PM. I tried today with limited success but I am by no means a "hacker/cracker" and do not aspire to be labeled as such. I am merely trying to determine how this is done step by step as proof of concept and assist in better determining who is cheating.

Some people are good cheaters. They'll hack the highscore and play several games regularly to populate lower scores. I really need to nail down some more info though.

I thank anyone who can help me.

Regards
