The sad fact is that if people want to cheat, they will be able to, since the Flash stuff is all executed client-side. Anybody who knows how to edit memory or spoof headers will be able to submit bogus information...

There are ways to secure the score because casino's are using flash most of the time for their online games. How this is done i don't know. I've seen flashgames with their own highscore tables in it, so they don't need a database at all. A gamedeveloper on Flashkit is using textfiles and cgi for storing score data and that works fine with no problems. But when you want more security then this arcade hack will lift itself beyond the reach of many of us because it will be to complicated to edit the files.

And yes Osmosis shockwave is awesome.

But understanding and using lingo data is difficult indeed.
