The AWD Load Counter is not fooled by this; it 'registers' a player turn the first time it is loaded and will increase the load count whenever the same player turn is loaded again. Renaming the file, etc. doesn't wipe out the load count. Other cheats are available; I agree that there are no foolproof ways to stop determined rulebreakers, just like there's no foolproof way to prevent nuclear war ... but efforts at deterrence can still be worth the effort, to the benefit of the greater community.
