I wont apologize for having an opinion, and for having the guts to actually speak up and voice it.
Ohhh... you´re so masculine with your brave attitude!! I´d be shivering now if I was gay...

I think you could have asked proc for the use of this tent source, for your collaboration contest. I seem to remember when db wanted to hand out t-shirts for the Gordonk contest, that the source was made easily available in the thread to EVERYONE>>>
Forums are a part of the site, aren´t they??? We´ve been announcing this for ages... EVERYONE had access to the thread that ANNOUNCED we were gonna hijack the 18th competition. I even added Reinman´s idea of putting a bar identifying it as a collaboration chop contest entry. There´s absolutely NO EXCUSE to say we´re confusing people... unless people are retarded enough not to be able to read... in that case, my appologies.

Like marco, I also have a problem handing out votes to entries that have ZERO source in them regardless of how much effort was put forth.
Right.... you and marco can´t just throw a vote for a chop that has ZERO source... HOWEVER, you have NO PROBLEM AT ALL on voting for a WONDERFUL copy/paste 2 framed gif (
http://photoshopcontest.com/view-entry/122862/votes.html) or a MARVELOUS color replacement paint (
http://photoshopcontest.com/view-entry/123017/votes.html)... all the paint job did by naiko in his entry is definetly not worth a vote... that´s completely comprehensive...

IMPO, it is not fair to those actually worked hard to play the normal game, and to those who haven't a clue what the hell you guys are doing.
Like if we all didn´t know the winner of the so called UNFAIR contest would be anfa, marco or any other usual winner... pffft... the hypocresy... whoever votes for the crappy entries out there, won´t deny them a vote if they vote for the collab chop entries... that´s a fact...

Remember, we normally blast those who don't have a clue how contests work when they go off and enter their own pictures with ZERO source. Now we've got a contest where half the pictures use the source provided, and the rest of you hijackers are using something completely different.
...in a totally UNEXPECTED WAY. I mean... nobody announced we would hijack the contest... nobody was invited to join the side contest... nobody was aware of the event... nobody saw a thread that was in the front page for 2 weeks... can you feel the sarcasm??

Tell me that isn't confusing to someone new... Also, when we did micose day, we used the source provided.
Yes. And this time we didn´t. What´s the big deal about it?? Is anyone being harmed because of it? We´re not even taking their VPPs, once everyone got a totally new account to post our entries...

All in all, I think this was a great idea that was again fumbled, and it made PSC look like a mockery. When it could have been a very very cool contest. Like Micose day was.
Weirdly enough, just like DP, you´re not a part of it... just throwing gas in the flames, and pretending to be an innocent expectator expressing his opinion... you´re such an hypocrite that it even disgusts me...

Then again, thats just my personal opinion.
And then again I say your personal opinion is just crap...

I'm really glad you guys had fun, and damn if there aren't a bunch of really great chops... I'm just not going to 'vote' for them... Thats all I was saying before...
did any of us ask for your vote?

I too hope we can do this again, but just with a little more thought about regular contests. Teething issues aside. great idea.
check the first tournaments... there were flaws.. lots of them... but instead of trying to dimish it, we tried to improve it... and we keep improving it, each year passes by... we didn´t just diss it cause it wasn´t well planned...
