Also, host is playing and will keep all the passwords. Is this wise ? If he plays very well then someone is bound to accuse him of cheating.

Whoops. I already sent my race file and password.
With something like this, it's extremely easy to cheat without being noticed. We can all just hope that the host is scrupulous enough not to peek, but there's going to be at least a few players uncomfortable with the thought that he easily can.

This is an issue, obviously, especially given certain recent events. I can say this to try and forestall any accusations that I might be tempted to peek in other players' turns.

It's not in my nature to do so. I've been playing and hosting in Stars for many years now, and I've seen many games go up in smoke when players up and leave with their passwords undisclosed. I'd much rather win a game on my own merit and ability than by cheating. I'm sure there are other, respected hosts and players on AH Forums who would vouch for me and my honesty. The ONLY reason I'm requesting passwords is to make a smoother transition between players for those of you who will drop out (and there's always at least one). Since this is a team game, it is important that if one player drops his team is not crippled.

If it would make you all more comfortable, may I suggest you resubmit race files without passwords (change them, duh!), BUT you share your racefile passwords with your teammates? Just once, I'd like to see a game get off the ground, through the middle, and into the endgame without a single hitch.
