Actually, it depends on the question you're asking, this isn't what BobTHJ asked. For example, it would be trivial for two non-players to make an arrangement, and then register under a name from a shared or invididual email account, Agora would have no way of distinguishing that joint arrangement from a "natural" player. Of course, you're right, if there was disagreement over the use of the email account between the partners, Agoran Law wouldn't have jurisdiction (another body of law might depending how their agreement was formalized). The above would be "cheating" if the said partners were players already (e.g. it's a version of Annabel). If they're both non-players, I don't think it would be cheating (others might). When you think of it, it's less cheating then a player finding a non-player friend who doesn't care about nomic, and asking them to register, then feeding them instructions or playing in their name, on behalf of this "natural" but not independent player. -Goethe
