    It doesn’t seem to work that way.

    The article is essentially a “day in the life” kind of thing, describing how the guy went about understanding how records were set and finding out that it was impossible without cheating.

      What he does is not what I am asking. I am still amazed, because I want to know how wide spread cheating is. I assume that it is crazy wide spread.

        it really depends on the game I think. it’s a lot harder to cheat in some games vs others.
