Bug would be when you buyng a wonder and pay no cash, it is mistacke of creating ruleset and describe it. He wanted to switch off caravans but forgot (or didn't know if it is exist) about something.
Maybe you understand message like: "I am not calling you a cheater, but this what you are doing is disingenuous" (I dont even know what does it mean), in other way then I am.
Or another try: "You should let me know how you do it, because it smells me a cheating", once game is on and secrets still on board.
If someone thinks someone else is a cheater he should write a sentence stright, then everybody else should write their own sentence and we can decide who is ok, propably cheater or a man who is calling a cheater someone else.
It is like ask ilusionist to show how he is doing his tricks. Some other exploits are being used for couple of games before everybody knows the trick and said that should be forbidden (eg. teleportation - at least in 3 games in a row).

Edrim,
Thank you for telling us about the teleport [bug|feature] - maybe someone who knows how to do this can make a fix to the ruleset for LT37? I didn't know about that one either.
I also played the test servers, and have created my own test server. I was not clever enough to test trade routes, but I DID discover things such as the inability to build a fort on rivers, the ability to use ZOC to avoid the automatic move after attacking, and I believe I announced these on global chat.
That kind of voluntary admission is what I was looking for wrt the trade routes as well. So yes, we think it is 'sneaky' - not cheating, but not 'honorable' either. I'm sure that clears up any misunderstanding about my muddled composition.

To follow on this thread... you can definitely capture caravans and establish trade routes. As wieder captured one of my ally's caravan and instead of disbanding it established a trade route with me! lol
But the trade route eventually got replaced. Probably because he got a better one.

I would still be interested in *how* to best do this. I know team that is using the best will not share their secrets (and get mad at me for asking) but if anyone else can share, it would be welcomed.
I'm planning on capturing my first caravan in the next few turns, so hopefully that turns out well.

Sure, you want other players to tell you how you can kill them.
Does anybody learnt players of enemy ally how to be better in past games?
You can ask after game end.
