Is is possible to cheat?

[Bman]

Yes I was in several of the games affected by this player. In one game I run, by turn10, with only 1 planet, 100k starting bonus, low-tech, medium research cost, this player had managed to research:

construction-1 (50k)
mines-1 (50k)
military science-1 (50k?)
astrophysics-1 (50k?)
stellar manip-1 (100k)
applied research-2 (100k)
space yards-2 (200k?)
chemistry-1 (50k)
armor-4 (something like 75k)
sensors-1 (50k)
combat support-1 (50k)
propulsion-4 (~60k)
plus some other little things.

That's over 800,000 research points in 10 turns! when they were only earning 10k research points per turn.

Luckily PBW caught on and have worked with Malfador to close the loophole to prevent this sort of thing in the future.

Your game sounds EXACTLY same kind of that we had. Even the techs are so similar, that there can be even same player!

You should ask PBW admin to check his turns!
