Don't know if this is common knowledge, but if you set your science level to 100%, you'll start to lose money in a big way, but as long as there's some money in the treasury (even just 1 gold), no matter how much of a deficit you have, it always drops to 0 before going into the negatives. So you can sell your territory map or something for 1 gold each turn and sustain a 100% science rate without accumulating a crippling debt (you can always put taxes on 100% for a few turns if you need money).

i somewhere heard this worked on chieftain, but not on other levels. But I could be wrong.Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God? - Epicurus

Quadalpha - on what difficulty level are you employing this tactic?
I distinctly remember moving from Chieftan to Warlord or Warlord to Regent (OK, not that distinctly ) and being surprised to see that on this new difficulty level a deficit of even 1 gpt resulted in military units and/or city improvements being disbanded / destroyed each turn.

You're not gonna learn much by using cheats/exploits. But that's just my opinion. If you're having fun, it's all good. If your aim is to move up to higher difficulty levels, I would encourage you not to use this.

The trick isn't to break some eggs to make an omelette, it's convincing the eggs to break themselves in order to aspire to omelettehood.
