Wouldnt it stop working if everyone in the team used maphack?

Yes, then it wouldn't work, also if there are more maphackers than non-maphackers it would be hard to decide who the hackers are.
Atleast it would show that there are maphackers if you don't maphack and separate all teams in 2 groups of equal hashcodes. That way someone who didn't maphack could post screenshots of him not hacking and a text-message that pops up for all people having the different hashcode

Yeah it definently sounds interesting. Wouldnt it also be possible to see what "group" had most viseble units and therefore detect them as maphackers?

A good idea, but I already tested the check unit visibility functions in the editor and the editor doesn't register units seen through maphacking as being visible, so even if someone was maphacking they would have the same number of visible units as anyone else on the team.

Terrain deformations occur for kids with FoW disabled via maphack. They don't for those without (unless they can actually see it through normal means).
IE, you can desync some maphackers (those that disable FoW).
