Default Re: How do you test stuff (or, is ethical behavior dead)?

Actually, I think many people test MP strategies in SP.
I usually start a few games and see how they evolve, because I'm more interested in testing a strategy than a particular tactic.
I've sometimes backed up games to check the differences between sending a thug with a shield, without, with a brand, without, with both, or naked, and compare the results.
There's nothing unethical in that. I mean, even NetHack has a debug mode made for testing things.
