Used to work at a pretty secure place. Each button had a small screen on it, and the numbers were randomized. So apparently this is an actual concern.

This works.

In Eve Online there was this big war, and a big ship was being built in some station. So everyone gathered around the station to protect it, and of course the enemy came after it. A huge battle ensued and in the end the station was destroyed successfully.

Except the ship wasn't in that station, it was being built at another station, the defenders just mislead them by protecting a random empty station. The ship finished its construction later that month.

Shit like this makes me wish I had a headstart on PC gaming. That stuff sounds so fun to take part in

Go run doen the eve online stories. People have gone under cover in enemy groups for years, just to rise in the ranks until they can just plunder the whole org for the equivalent of tens, even hundreds of thousands of dollars.

I think there was even a guild in the game the specialized on long con espionage called like "the crimson rose" or some such.

The game itself is basically excel, but the "player generated" environment is an epic story generator.
