No, because...

...that's pretty much what I assumed you were doing.
Quote:basically people want to confront their dueling skills with others ... it would be good to know that your opponent doesn't cheat you.
From what I've seen: If players don't trust each other to not cheat, and they have no clear way of enforcing it, arguments will emerge from sore losers. And even if you have some realiable method of checking that everyone is playing by the rules, some people will insist the judges are corrupt.
If the duels were all in good fun, it shouldn't be necessary to have safeguards against cheating folks. From your description, the duels are being used in the usual manner: "My clan can beat up your clan." Schoolyard mentality. I don't see that anyone gains from that.
If you trust your opponent, you can grow to admire them. If you don't, you're just fighting.
