Will, I suggest directly alerting the admin, Stephen Ryder, to ensure he addresses this asap. Best way to reach him is at puzzlebaron@gmail.com. Include a link to this thread so he can see the screenshot (which is clear when I click on it).
Thank you for calling out the cheater. That example you posted is too complex for anyone to solve in under 4 seconds, let alone in 1 second.

Thanks for posting this. I don't doubt that this is cheating - but with some of the stellar (legitimate) solve times we're seeing these days it is getting harder and harder to programmatically detect actual cheating on cryptograms. What should the cut-off be that flags a time as "suspicious"?

Well, there are a couple of legitimate players who have gotten 2 second records, so we definitely don't want to flag those. I'm not sure if a 1 second record is attainable, but you never know. I'd say we players should keep an eye on records and if we see something suspicious, like Deanna noted after seeing four 1 second records in a row, report it to Admin.
