i suspect all he did was look at each city and clicked on each supported unit as it gives the name of the closest city reguardless if it is known or not.Originally posted by 123john321

If I recall the "Boston" thing correctly, Xin Yu's opponent was playing the Americans so Xin Yu knew he had a Boston city. So Xin Yu named one (or more?) of his own cities "Boston" and everytime the opponent checked the "nearest city" of his exploring units, he kept getting "nearest to Boston", so he decided there was nothing in that direction for quite a distance.Civ2 Demo Game #1 City-Planner, President, Historian

Xin Yu still did it best. We were in a MP game, on different sides of an alliance, and we were looking for each others cities.
He had found my farthest outpost, but I hadn't found his yet. He renamed all his cities close to me "Boston", the same name as the city I had closest to him... Every time I went to check to see if my exploring units were still closer to my city... sure enough, it always said they were closest to Boston

1. FREE INFORMATION
Much of the fun of the game is in the discovery. But little did you know that you
provide us with tons of ways to cheat and get information we shouldn't have:
1.1) If you are looking for other civilizations, you can use the city menu and click on a unit. It tells you the nearest city, even if you haven't found the city yet. It helps you find or hunt down other civilizations.
1.2) Clicking on the map where you haven't explored and looking at the number after
the coordinates tells you if the place is ocean or land…very important when moving
ships that can be lost at sea.
1.3) Double-click a square that you have already explored. If you don't see the terrain information, then you know somebody has built a city there.
1.4) Any city that has built a wonder may be located using the "Find City" command. You get an exact location, even if you haven't discovered the city yet.
