It is only discouraged as "contrary to the spirit of the game" by people who don't understand the importance of game chat.

Of course its not cheating,'contrary to the spirit of the game',is a way too nebulous and ambiguous phrase to have any useful application in practice,as was demonstrated in the recent GLG fiasco.Lets just have clear precise rules consistently implemented and less 'spirit of the game' bullshit.

Move along, nothing to see here.

He stacked his men on 301, and I owned Cell Block C door. He was stacking alot of men, way more than any other player in the game, and the game turned in somewhat of a stalemate for awhile. So I told other players of how many troops he had on that area so other people would be aware of how strong he was. The player accused me of cheating, and he told me I "wasnt respecting the rules". I thought this was well within my right as a strategy.

I just want to hear thoughts on this. If I was in the wrong, I'll apologize and never do it again. I thought I was making a strategic neccessity for the other players. But whatever

Not only is it not cheating, it's not even unsportsmanlike. Why? Because for all anyone knows, you could be lying about those numbers anyway. Not that I would ever lie in gamechat, I should point out. It is well known that Vulcans are incapable of lying.
