that's truly bizarre.  i've never been cheated on
kgs, and in fact think that with the right ruleset
it would be very difficult to be cheated.  anything
about which there is any confusion can easily be
settled by playing it out.

the only confusion i've ever really seen in a game
on kgs has to do with seki.  bent-4, triple-ko, etc.,
almost never really come up in my games, for whatever
reason.  :)  in the only resolution phase where i've
ever had disagreement, it was my bad -- i was
convinced something was dead, and my opponent wasn't,
so i suggested that he let me play it out, we played
it out, and i quickly discovered that i was wrong.
not only that, but i had made an error in trying to
kill it, and lost the seki position.  :)
