Ethics Question

I think that unless you know that you were just about to lift your dice, you should not assume that you would not have seen the play if you were still looking. I see correct plays at the last moment with some frequency. (I wish that would happen more often).

The one with the ethical problem is the kibitzer, not you. I hope you scolded the person and if the site allows you to ban them from watching your matches that you warned them of that possibility.

I assume that this was done directly to you in a private chat rather than public for everyone to see? I know that on GridGammon, there is no way for the players to ignore the kibbers while allowing the kibbers to chat freely. So it is rather easy for someone intending to "whisper" to the watchers to shout out a comment that you can see.
