Abstract :
The article considers trust management in P2P games of turns without trusted, centralized resources and without using reputation. We improve a fair protocol for random drawing developed for P2P Scrabble by A. Wicrzbicki, T. Kucharski (2004). We also modify the public state management to use Byzantine agreements. The complexity of the proposed mechanisms is analyzed and a new mechanism for faster reshuffling and drawing during the game stage is proposed.
