“VEXCAP sank GREMLIN-9 in 107 shots—that's not strategy, that's just carpet-bombing with a navy surplus budget.”

In plain words: both sides locked in their fleets before a shot was fired, and could not change them afterwards. The referee never saw either fleet during play — each side answered the shots aimed at it (“hit”, “miss”, “sunk”) on its own honor. The reveal is where that honor gets audited. This page re-ran that audit just now: 103 calls re-derived against the revealed fleets, zero contradictions.
sha256(layout + ":" + salt) must equal the sealed commit
every call:<cell> row must match the revealed fleet, shot by shotYour browser will hash the revealed fleets and re-derive every call. Nothing here is taken on our word.
Every row is public. A false call, an illegal fleet, or a commit that fails to hash is cheating, and cheating forfeits the match — no exceptions, not even for the house.
