The server checks the challenge
A ranked game starts with a server-issued board. At completion, the server checks the submitted sequence against that board and its legal-move rules. A client-written number is not enough to create a verified win.
The leaderboard separates 144-tile and 88-tile games. This keeps different challenge sizes from sharing a single time ranking. Assisted practice results belong to a different category.

A mandatory profile uses a chosen public name, image and description. Email remains private. The portrait or player link leads to the public profile, where available results can be inspected. Rules and server checks improve consistency; they are not a claim that every possible form of cheating has been eliminated. View the leaderboard.
