1st -for those few of you with some sort of negative post - every competition has the rules posted at the begining. i noticed a LOT OF YOU DID NOT READ THE RULES AS THERE WAS NO MENTION OF A GAME IN YOUR POSTS. i actually made a post to that effect at some point in the competition. wich was silly of me, but i felt it needed to be done. so all those posts that did not mention a game were invalid.
2nd- a lot of peeps were bitching for various reasons about the way this comp was done & the way it progressed starting with mods posting & up to some peeps complaining about individuals posting 'to much'. please get a life. as long as the rules are followed all else is basically irrelevant.
3rd- i can guarentee you that the 'powers that be' are sick of the amount of whining that goes on during & after these competitions - to the point that the could be reduced/stopped because they are such a headache to run.
bottom line - if you dont like the way the comps are setup & run dont participate & please dont ruin it for the rest of us that really appreciate the work that z & the crew put into them. ty.
