Is it just me, or is it just late, or does this article seem a bit... informal? — Lapper (talk) 05:48, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

It's not just you. It is, however, a good idea. It just needs a lot of spic-and-span... Maybe a little Grout Clean'r. --DorianGray

Yeah! What he said! --The Creator

[edit] Cigs

There are a lot of other times cigarettes are seen on the site that don't involve The Cheat. Should those be listed here somewheres? Salty^Talk! 04:47, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

A better question: Why haven't you added them already? Be bold with your editing! I recomend creating a ciggaretes page, then moving the cheat's smoking onto a seperate section of it. Unless some other users disagree. But I say go for it. — _talk Bubsty _edits 04:57, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup

I've marked this article for {{cleanup}} because I know that I can't be the only one with the opinion that the entire first paragraph of this page is pretty much complete speculation and/or non-encyclopediac style:

The Cheat has got a problem: he's a smoker. While usually cigarettes, he's not opposed to old-style pipes. He can usually be seen puffing on a pack of Trophy Lights after a period of stress or fatigue. Though some times his friends will try to get him off cigarettes, he is hooked good, and these attempts are never too successful.

It would be great if a better introduction could be worked out for this page. — Lapper (talk) 20:58, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Okay, that has been reworded, I believe. Is there anything else anyone thinks may be a good idea to clean up? Bluebry 01:57, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

I reworded it to make it sound a little better. I don't see anything else that's wrong with the page. Is it time to get rid of the clean up tag? Isaac Smith

Here's an idea...perhaps due to the extreme difference of physiology, The Cheat might be immune to the harmful effects of smoking. This would explain the fact that although his friends try to get him off it, they really don't try that hard. Good, huh? -The very strongest

That's speculation, though. --Jay (Talk) 18:22, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wrong end of the cigarette

The article says that Teh Cheat is seen smoking the wrong end of the cigarette, though that is not the case in any of the appearances listed. I'm going to remove the fact for now unless anyone can come up with the example that this fact is based on. Flashfight 17:57, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
