I realize it's not cheating, but it is frustrating when you reload from 10 turns earlier and still get beaten. For example (this is only a rough example).
I get beat for a wonder on turn 50 by one turn. So I go back to turn 40 and start chopping forests, go to full production mode, etc. I see that I can build the wonder sooner and should have it done by turn 47.
Turn 47 rolls around and the AI has built the wonder and beat me by one turn.
So--I had gone back and shaved off three turns off the build time, but the AI did the same thing?
So, I then go back 20 turns and again, I get beaten by one turn.
This it not all the time, but I have had it happen.
And this is before spies.
But it has been explained that it's not cheating and I have to take the expert's words for it (i.e., the ones who know how to read the codes).
But sometimes it sure seems an AI is predestined to get that wonder.
