I was playing the Ferengi, and to make profit (I needed an excuse to attack someobdy), did a Com Mimmic between the Romulans (Fyron) and the Federation!
Everybody believed that was a cheat or a game bug! The game was halted and Geo was requested to see the savegames and find the problem!
When knew it, I was unable to stop laugh after several minutes... and remember it now, can't avoid to smile while I'm writing this words!

Master Belisarius, I can just feel you chortling away in the corner.

It got me to wondering what is so powerful about the com mimic.

A couple of e-mails would normally clear up the situation and no harm done.

Then it hit me, it replaces the T & R Alliance.

Loss of 20% production would be huge.
