How to prevent elo manipulation
So I was browsing appeals as I always do when I'm bored and I saw this one person with a good idea to prevent Elo Manipulation.

Basically the idea was that you can only queue with that person for a certain amount of games, maybe like 10 times in a row, in an hour or something. After that, it pretends like that person isn't there

Also I know that sometimes in smaller kits that this happens so maybe only in like popular kits?

Idk just some idea that I thought of please point out my mistakes I'm kinda tired right now.

You shouldn't be fighting a person too much in a row in any kit. Once I fight someone ~4 times in a short amount of time, I just join a different ladder.

-1, it's just common sense, you shouldn't be fighting the same person a million times and not be suspected to be elo manipulating.

I know but it would make it a lot quicker.

There was this dude who elo manipulated for like 200 matches in a row before he got caught

When I was grinding gapple at emerald V/Gold 1 there was only 1 other player at that level and we played 20 matches in a row together and only stopped when I logged off. NOT TRUE

I believe I posted this when we still used elo, and didn't have to scan around?

^^^^ Agreed. But this would be a really good idea to implement :)

Yes this will be really frustrating in low player ladders, at off-peak times.

How about a list is compiled for the seniormods by the console which details people suspicious. (too much work i expect)
