We play ADoM together with my good friend, Svarta. Sometimes we save just for restoring in case of crashes. I think it's not a cheat, considering that ADoM can be really buggy sometimes.
But recently Svarta managed to be caught in cables of computer and turn it off just after we lose championship (with all consequences) because of hitting blink dogs. But it really wasn't specially. So, how do you think, is it cheat to reload game in such a case, when the reason of crash was not the game, but one of players?
And if it acceptable to reload it at all? You always get some knowledge from crashed game, so it eases game sometimes...

Is it cheating?

Oh, yeah! We won! We won! Now we are going to search for some SoCRs and leave this chain.
By the way - no gremlin bombs, no wish engines, almost no stair-hopping. And, of course, no serious cheats like integer owerflowing and such.

Loss of save-file for in-game reasons (i. e. death): Backup is cheating.

Loss of save-file for out-of-game reasons (program crash, power outage, freak accident): Backup is okay; you shouldn't be punished for circumstances that you had no control over or that had nothing to do with the game.
