i do not have any rights yet with this game.

Re: PBW : Paranoia2
 

Rule check: what about non-colony ships with colony components? A player
could trade a non-colony LC for a colony LC..

Re: PBW : Paranoia2
 

Indeed, players could do that.
If the purpose of such a trade was to give some colony ships to a player, that would be bending the rules so much that it would become cheating.

Re: PBW : Paranoia2
 

What if that weren't the purpose, and how would tesco know?

PvK

Re: PBW : Paranoia2
 

And how do you guess in other games when someone is cheating ?

Re: PBW : Paranoia2
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Hard to tell, but if he's the game master he can check the status of any ship in the game at any time. No need for a player's password, you just change the password, run the turn offline and check using the new one. The checking turn doesn't get uploaded, so it has no effect on the actual game.

That's too cumbersome to do for every trade, but occasional spot checks should keep people honest.

Re: PBW : Paranoia2
 

naa just give tesko all our passwords...
would make it easyer for him.

Re: PBW : Paranoia2
 

Sorry guys, but most of the time, when someone is cheating, it is just other players who come up pointing to someone's weird behavior.

But you can also take another stance : somewhere, we have to trust the players, cheaters are an exception here. Not the rule.

So keep your eyes open as usual. Nothing more. I would prefer to have paranoia in the game, not ON the game.

Yes, because of that we're starting over again.

And I got a bunch of nice breathables this time, too.
