Are you cheating this week in the goo game? So far I'm aware of four different methods used by players, and there are several methods I can think of that no one has used yet. You don't have to cheat (and these goos aren't especially difficult); just curious.

I was a little apprehensive at encouraging players to cheat, since that's potentially a difficult genie to put back in the bottle, but the idea was too good to pass up. Thanks to Samir for requesting one of the two goos that inspired the theme.

Can someone help me with the current goo? What!? Cheating week is over! Damn.

Alright, Scott, let's hear it. What were the four ways to cheat?

Scott Hardie | August 13, 2008
This list might tick some people off, since they didn't think to try that or didn't think that would work or they wouldn't like that I allowed that in the game. Feel free to skip over this list if that might be you.

Some methods used:
- Telling me a family member entered that guess on their computer, and asking for another.
- Telling me they pasted in the wrong guess by mistake, and asking for another guess.
- Flat-out asking for a second guess.
- Creating a ghost account to test their guess.
- Asking for a hint.
- Asking for the answer.
- Sharing hints with other players.
- Sharing answers with other players.

Where I was involved, I only helped that way once per player.

Also, you coulda bribed me into breaking into his computer and finding out all the answers. But most likely I would have just taken the money, bought us dinner and made up something to fool you instead. Potential Suckers!
