One of the rules is banning the use of third-party software or scripts.

Any LLM attempting to play will lose because of that rule. So, if you know the rules, and you strictly adhere to them (as you seem to be doing) than no need to click on the link. You already know it's not playing buy GeoGuesser rules.

That being said, if you are running a test, you are free to set the rules as you see fit and explain so, and under the conditions set by the person running the test, these are the results.

We stopped caring about pedantry. Especially when the person being pedantic seems to cherry pick to make their point.

Technically the LLM is 3rd party software so the use of it is cheating. QED

This doesn't mean you shouldn't try to make things as far as possible. Yes, it would still technically violate rules, but don't pretend like this is binary.

Did we? You see to be responding to my pedantic comment with a pedantic comment.
