Competition Closed Early

786qwerty · Feb 28, 2008, 10:20 PM

Hi I just previewed my entry for the Tabula Rosa competition for the final time and it said it was closed. Will it be possible to add my entry. I have sent you a pm Zardon. I hope I didn't miss out by a few minutes difference as others just posted before the thread was closed. Technically it is not meant to close until 12am so I would feel a bit hard done by if my entry doesn't go through.

Actually its technically meant to close today. there is no time stated due to the fact if I post a time then people get their panties in a wad and complain its not the right time "in their timezone".

No idea why you would feel hard done by the competition has been running for many weeks now.

In the interests of keeping you happy I will add your entry for you but its final after this.

Thanks for adding the entry, greatly aprreciated. Please could you look at the recent pm I sent you.

What I meant by hard done by is when I clicked the submit button, the thread closed a few seconds before.

The timezone problem could of been solved by just saying ends at 23:59 gmt but I get what you mean.

Thanks again

My pleasure, I understand the frustration, which is why I added it for you.
