After hearing of this program I had my brother(a computer geek)download this,since I have trouble even adding new icons to my civ files.We played a MP game where he hosted and used the cheat thing. This is what happened,I was unable to detect it, but did have some strange reactions,first he had unusually high lag as host,we tried the same day without cheats and his lag was fine. It also made my mouse do wacky stuff,why I don't know. We saved each turn so I could go back and see if I could spot the cheats,and it was quite obvious as gold went nuts and so did his building.Here is my end observation of this experiment. Alot of people cheat playing civ online,alot of league players cheat. People not only use programs,but use 2 computers to pull the map clean and see their opponents.I have even been accused of cheating because of a good start by souse76(the chief)and he knew this because he was using a cheat program to look at my map.I love to play civ online and recently after many months have found some great people to play against,Wooz,Seankhan,Acidreign,Alia23,Oedo, Phatman,Empress,Joxur(jluchford),and Darkstorm.These people I know play an honest game and I am sure there are others,but these are the ones I choose to play with. I don't worry about saving every turn,setting passwords,etc.... and that adds to the fun I have playing,which is what this game is all about,fun. Nuff said

Right. Why cheat? I've asked this many times. Where is the thrill? And why should the developers concern themselves with "cheat proofing" their game? It shouldn't be a priority or concern.
The level of thinking required to be successful at Civ would lend to the belief that the majority of players are into it for the competition of the game, not the competition of best cheat.

Just want to add that the players I listed are current ones I try to play with,didn't mean to leave others out or infer that all others are cheaters. I have confidence that alot of people who post here are honest gamers,just haven't had a chance to play everyone,well yet :-) Some of you Aussies sound like you would be a blast to play with.

as aperson who has played sport all my life, I hate cheating and cheats I would rather loose every game I play than to win one by cheating. If I found out that someone had cheated me I would make a point of telling everyone about it
CHEATING SUCKS IT IS ONLY FOR THE WEAK
ps VLAD there are many Aussies down here with fin who are more than willing to make time to play others from other time zones
good clean civing all
