I've never had any help, to speak of, my wife and I have done it all, almost, just us 2, so if something needed done, we did it, it was a hobby, not life or death, and we've met, and made a lot of good friends along the way, so don't blame your lack of being competitive, on someone cheating, look around you, and take some of the blame yourself.
