AB Quizzes and Puzzles is it cheating?
13 Answers
These seem to have been causing AB to run slow all day. But surely using AB to solve your puzzle is cheating? What do the puzzlers gain from getting somebody else to provide the answer, unless they are all for prizes, when it really is cheating?

Brokenstoned - it was seeing http://www.theanswerb...s/Question824595.html pop up - I opened it out of curiousity and then asked the question and was told to clear off. I then saw that others were complaining it was slowing AB down, so asked the question........
How can you say using a dictionary is cheating. How can you learn to spell without one. When I was at school we were all issued with one and told bad spelling was not acceptable. If you can't spell the word you want use a dictionary. Also I find reading text messages a nightmare. Maybe this is why the young can't spell.
I'm very good at Cryptic and General Knowledge crosswords as I have many helpful books to help me out in solving awkward clues.Mind you I do have one of them handheld electronic Crossword solvers...I know, that does sound like cheating,but hey....you have to find out the answer somehow when you're really stuck!!
I have provided answers on AB a long while back,but now I don't bother with giving answers now.
I complete the Mail on Sunday General Knowledge and Sunday Express General Knowledge crooswords every week,as well as the cryptic ones.Must have a brain like my dad.
Mind you,I have Googled most hard clues which have proved difficult.
That's what I do anyway,so I guess that could be cheating as well.
But,you have to learn some way or other!
