How staked checkers will work
The same way as staked chess: two real players, the same stake each, moves and clocks run on the server, and the winner takes the pot minus the platform fee. A draw refunds both stakes.
Ratings will move only in games against real people, and a practice ladder win never counts toward them.
How a match is kept fair
Every move or shot goes to Ariplex's server, which applies the published rules, runs the clock and decides the result. A phone or computer never reports who won, so a modified app cannot win a match.
Staked matches are between two real people. Computer opponents exist only in free practice, and they are labelled as practice players.
Players are paired by a hidden skill rating inside a city, so a new player meets other new players rather than the strongest on the site.
The shop sells cosmetics only. Nothing that can be bought changes how a game plays.
18+, limits and where it is not allowed
Ariplex is for adults aged 18 and over. Deposit limits, loss limits, time outs and self-exclusion are in every account, and the responsible play page lists where to get help.
Playing skill games for money is restricted or not allowed in some countries and states. Check the law where you are before you stake; free practice needs no account and no money.
