Big difference between innovating and doing brute force analysis. Reverse
engineering the rules of a game is mostly a matter of doing repetitive
actions and tabulating the results in order to arrive at a formula. Lots of
people helps tremendously for that, and it takes a fairly complex system to
get past the brute effort they'll direct at it. Especially given how
effectively the Web lets them share their data.
