Default Re: Honesty doesn\'t pay :(

I didn't even think it necessary to tell the hosts how I did it. For the same reason as I didn't go tell everyone here how it's done. I thought it enough to warn them it could happen. The only person who has a legitimate reason to know how was Aaron and as it turned out he already knew.

I'm not going to name him because I don't feel I can legitimately claim to be honest while at the same time do something vindictive like tell everyone to blacklist him.

Once I get home though I will try to find previous messages with the players emails. Since I got kicked I don't have access via PBW to their adresses, but I do feel I have the right to present my case to the others in case they do get the impression I cheated. I'm not saying he has told them such but my integrity has been insulted and I need to explain to the others. No accusations just the facts.

I'm just mildly upset as I pride myself on being honest. I virtually have a nervous breakdown if I do anything even close to lying. Maybe I could have rephrased my email to him better. To be honest I couldn't help trying to be funny by suddenly saying the password and then asking if he knew what it was, although I did explain I was telling Aaron. His explanation was he didn't know me and although I might say I won't cheat I might find the tempatation too strong in future. I can sort of understand what he means so doubly I'm not going to name names.

so, experiments show that when you know a bug it is best not to let on, and that fact makes me sad . There's a 50/50 chance it will bite you. well 30/70 if one of the people you tell writes the thing
