    I think you should reevaluate your friendship when it comes to trust issues like that

    Dude, I did these things back when goldeneye on n64 ruled my life. It sucked being under that blanket. I wouldn’t say that it involves trust issues either FWIW. My eyes constantly wander, can’t help screen peaking.

    It’s hard not to peripherally see the colors on the other half of the screen, and if you know your game well enough, that’s all you need to see to know where he/she is. It’s not about wanting to cheat as much as it is about wanting to stop knowing where your opponent is and vice-versa.

    This just looks stupid. If a friend of mine asked me to get under that blanket or under that damn cardboard I’d look at them like they are a complete idiot. Just play dammit. Screen peeking is apart of playing on one screen. Cowards.

      It completely ruins the game a lot of the time, only someone who intentionally screen peaks would say something like this. I know because my friends get so defensive if you call them out.
