Czuch Chuckers: OK. So it isn't for the benefit of the users but for the benefit of the owner?

In either case, the fact that a player is using a program and IS LETTING others know doesn't hurt either the users or the owner of this site. If players don't want to play him, they don't and if they do, they will play him. so actually Sumerian will not be able to get even a rating if others don't play with him. And in this special case of the tourny, I think he again hasn't done anything wrong. The creator of the tourny has asked him to join knowing the fact that he is using a program and it makes everything clear. The prize giver is free to choose the one he wants to give the prize too. In the tourny no one gets bothered or hurt. They are just games.
