Subject: [tw2002] WORLD SSM CURE!

I've just spent the last 3 hours trying to exploit my own
script, and I believe I've found a cure for the leaked test
release of my world SSM script.

Symptoms of someone using this script are:
1.  Person has negative alignment which is lowering at an
alarming rate.
2.  Person has experience level from around 3000-7000 as is
typical with evils at work.  Experience level raises very
quickly and drops along with busts (just like normal evils).
3.  Person drops figs all over the damn place, just single
tolls.
4.  Person express warps to and from class 0 ports, blasting
and figs in his/her path.
5.  The big one:  THIS PERSON IS DAMN RICH

These only apply in games with unlimited turns.

Here is how you can self destruct them.

step 1:  Find out which class 0 port they are visiting.  Deploy
limpets right around it.

step 2:  When they pick up a limpet, move to the class 0 port
and deploy a beacon saying 'Command [TL=', along with a toll fig.

step 3:  As soon as you see the limpet moving rapidly between two
sectors, express warp directly to one of the sectors (blasting any
figs in your path).

step 4:  Fire off a beacon saying 'Busted!' and a planet with the text:
'He arrives shortly ncby'.  You need to do these VERY fast, use a macro
for it.

step 5:  Watch the player dash back to the class 0, hit your fig and
pay the toll, then explode.  Make sure the class 0 sector is empty
of all other ships (including yours).

If this looks too complex for you, just deploy 1000 figs around the
class 0 and photon them as soon as they hit em.  The 1000 figs is too
much for the script to destroy without a user present.

This exploit won't work around the terra port yet, i'm still working
on fixing that one (as you can't deploy stuff in there).

The official release won't have any of these exploits, but it will
work at a slower pace so as to keep the game level.

If your using this script, please delete it ASAP.  It wasn't supposed
to have gotten out to anyone, and your thoroughly ruining the game
and my own reputation by using it.
