Cheating

What do people here think when they see someone having a good cheat? I saw a bloke the other day playing NMTB with his notebook in his hand frantically looking up answers as he played.
Fantasised about yelling to the bar staff "Look! He's cheating!" but I wasn't that arsed.
Suppose people would admire his dedication?

You say he was typing frantically...he must have been! Is it really possible to type the right search term and sort out the right answer/press the screen in the time allowed? (Disclaimer: I am not an expert on NMTB)

I remember the days when notebooks were spiral bound.

When I said notebook I meant 'notebook' - as in a book where he'd written his answers. Wasn't anything electronic/technical.

I admire people's dedication, if he makes it pay then more power to him!

Whoops! In which case he must have been even more frantic given the size of modern question banks.

I've got spiral-bound notebooks which I filled with questions years ago, but only so I could learn them, I never even considered trying to use them as reference books! If anyone wants to buy them, I'll consider serious offers; all the top games are covered - Inquizitor, Every Second Counts, Ten Quid Grid...
