He cheated not in this. FIDE has certain criteria according to which a chess player must have at least 30 classical games for a certain period (a little less than a year), otherwise he is not allowed to the tournament. Ding cheated and in just a month and made himself statistics in dummy intra-Chinese tournaments to meet this criterion. This is an obvious scam and I do not see what can be discussed here.
In choosing for the candidates, FIDE established a criteria in order to choose players that can and will participate in the tournament for the WC Championship. You already said it:
a player must have at least 30 classical games for a certain period (a little less than a year)
-in which Ding was able to achieve in the time frame given by FIDE. Though you argued that he
cheated since he accomplished this within less than a month, then FIDE should have called this and prohibited him from participating in this event and mentioned that such practice is
PROHIBITED.
Again,
alleging that Ding cheated just because he was able to complete 30 classical games in a month
is just outrageous. If there was a problem with it, then FIDE should have looked into it, in which they did not. Perhaps this is not cheating perse but a loophole that Ding was able to capitalize on that FIDE had no problem with.
I wonder what can be outrageous about the facts? He participated in fake tournaments and the fact that FIDE did not take any steps to punish it does not change anything. I hope you don't need special instructions or a chef's degree to not eat shit if it's served as a cake?
He seems to have played 28 games in 30 days, three tournaments (allegedly they were, no one has seen evidence)
If you are ready to believe it and pretend that "everything is fine" then this is just disrespect for other chess players and good manners in general.
In the meantime, the next game turned out to be productive (what kind of clown indicators?) and, unfortunately, equality again and the chinese cheater has a chance for the crown
