Damn, don't get so wound up about it. If you think you can do better prove
it and program an improved TT. Also, do you think you can accomplish
anything by shouting? Remember that back then, multiplayer over a network
was a very rare feature and that in TT it's just put in as a nice addon, but
wasn't given much thought.

Also, they're your kids, I assume you could get them to play fair if you ask
them (but not by shouting like in your post ;-)

By the way, I'm missing constructive criticism in your post. How would it be
better? I mean, how would you implement such a cheating block? Very nice,
everybody can go around shouting "that game sucks", "what a waste of money",
but if you don't even have an idea how you could change that, shut up.
By the way, I think you're a bit late complaining about this. You could've
done so when TTO came out and maybe written Chris a friendly e-mail and it
could have been improved in TTD?

Oh and just so you know, nobody is forcing you to play TT... Burn it, stick
it to a rocket and launch it into outer space or whatever. It's yours :)
