Cheating is defined as an act of lying, deception, fraud, trickery, imposture, or imposition. Cheating characteristically is employed to create an unfair advantage, usually in one's own interest, and often at the expense of others. Cheating implies the breaking of rules. The term "cheating" is less applicable to the breaking of laws, as illegal activities are referred to by specific legal terminology such as fraud or corruption. Cheating is a primordial economic act: getting more for less, often used when referring to marital infidelity.You want me to discuss this further? Or do you want to add something?

What is CHEATING?
Here is the post you asked for, Nadja. I know it's not very creative but I think the article on Wikipedia already explains everything:

"Cheating implies the breaking of rules."
no rules, no breaking the rules. easy as that!
"getting more for less" - not true, you really have to work hard to get more!
And more, I'm telling the truth! I am accused of cheating for telling the truth! that is a first. Fine, next time, I will just cheat and shut up! Lips sealed. Fingers away from the keyboard.
thus, additions to my previous definition: 1) cheating is what you are accused of when others lose and 2) best way of cheating is to tell the truth.
Right, so how about blaming Christian for not setting strict rules ;-) ?
And I also acknowledge that you were honest enough to admit your "little trick"! So I guess I can live with that!
Oh, the conspiracy against me is complete now. And that on my own blog! I already admitted that I didn't set the rules strict enough: I also have to confess I didn't specify this time that Google etc. was not allowed. You know, sometimes I still believe that you don't have to say the obvious things. But also my job teaches me better...
Oh, I know you said that in your last post, but I just wanted to make sure that Dana and I agree on that point as well :-)
Have a good weekend!
Nadja
