[QUOTE="Chimera, post: 2607945, member: 2002"] An old friend that I ended up kicking out of my game for cheating was also cheating on his character sheet, adding equipment and when called on it, giving me a nasty "it's written on my sheet, so I have it" attitude. Another friend couldn't stick to his feats to save his life, no matter how often I told him that he couldn't drop and switch feats every week. As a GM, I prefer to check over character sheets every level so that, at very least, I have a handle on their skills and so forth. It not only helps me to know what they are capable of handling (so I don't throw a monster against them that will singlehandedly TPK the lot for lack of one thing) and so I can make skills checks at the right places without pausing to ask their skill levels. As a player, I'd prefer to update my character sheet for the GM at least every other level, so that they have the same knowledge and so that they can hand it off to someone else if I am unable to make the game.
