How is cheating possible?

Stormbinder,

As another who thought of you in terms of Stormwhiner, please accept both my thanks and apologies. Norfleet is a better propagandist than you, but you had right on your side, as well as the will to follow what you knew was right. May you always stick to your convictions and may you have better success in getting others to support you.

On a related topic, does this revelation put all of the debates about balance into a new perspective? Norfleet's favorite strategies, the VQ and Mad Castling, look less strong when you realize how he really did it. He was fond of saying the strategies were not that overwhelming, he knew lots of people who could not make them work. I, for one, could never get the resources to spam castles across the landscape or get the VQ fully decked out so early. Now I know why he was so much better at it than I.
