I one of my sites does an online league for Madden football game.
The Story of the problem:
When a user reports a game that is played, the winner reports the game by
choosing his name from a drop down selection box and also choses the loser
from the selection box, he enters his password and the game is reported.
The Problem
The problem is that abusers of the site will report games that they have not
played and screws up the stats of the players that he supposedly played
against.
Now, the ultimate solution would be to have a way where when the winner
reports the game it should also be authenticated by the loser as well. So
you would have two people reporting in order for the game to be actually
recorded in the database.
I am asking You All Knowing Ones what would be a solution to this and how
would I implement it?
here is the site

I disabled the report feature because of the abuse, now they have to go
through me and I have to manually do it
