Default Re: Is password guessing cheating?

Looking into someone elses empire is cheating when playing a game of SEIV. It doesn't matter how you do it. Even in a game where there is no passwords it is still cheating.

A little OT but wouldn't it be interesting to play a game without passwords? That way people who are interested in the game but aren't playing could learn new strategies and just watch the game as it develops. Also after a players empire is dead they could see what went wrong.

The best solution would be to use passwords and then publish them on a web page. That way the players wouldn't accidentally open a wrong empire. Of course it might not be easy to find players that are honest and willing to reveal their strategies.
