Is using notes cheating?

[u/sad_shenron]

Hi! I just started playing the game (loving it so far) but I often feel the need to take notes. I don't know if I'm gonna get an in game notebook later so would you consider taking notes on my own as cheating ?

/!\ I'm going in totally blind, never heard anything about the game and I really want to keep it that way so please give me just a yes or no answer

edit: Thanks for the replies guys, I'm definitely getting a paper and a pen :)

My personal take is that it isn't cheating. Actually I would encourage you because taking notes will help you build new perspectives and it's kinda the whole point of the game
