Cheating is all part of the game. In Germany they didn't follow the rules and always tried to out wit the goons.
On our Moortrek the studes were advised not to consider hiding up a tree as it was cold, windy and dangerous.
The only problem for my stude who did hode up the tree was that he was not caught on the first sweep and had to stay up there until the second sweep 6 hours later. We missed him that time round too.
He was also mighty pissed off with the 3 guys he was teamed up with as they were not on his course. Never-the-less he was the only one to get through RV1 undetected before the exercise was abandoned. His team was also 3rd off the blocks. Not bad going.
I think he made a fine copper in the end 'cause he couldn't navigate!
