Second the best wishes part.

It's a shame Keith felt the controversy so much, if that's what prompted his actions.

And you're right John, we should take the good bits, there were a lot of those, and move on.

At least now I can put up some video of the screeching demon that is my entry and wait for the comments on that.

after  all is said and   done  ,  we  have to remember  , this  site  is newer than the sport  ,  and  Ben  taking over the site,   and  Dan  helping out,   is    even  newer than  that  ,   just like  in  cbg building,, there is trial  and error   ,,  you  find out   what works well  ,,   what  doesn't  , it's a  process  that  only makes things better in the  end  or the future ,  as    we are all still  learning in these  contests  .

sometimes  in an effort to  please    everyone ,  it  can actually  be   detrimental to  some  .   this  is  usually   the reason  for   rules  ,  but  if  rules  don't count   then  people   might as well    start bringing  a   jet   to  a  hot air balloon race ,  and it   gets silly .  i  agree  with  Ben,  some  better structure  is  in order  ,  he   knows  that  .. we   know  it  .  so    i assume   it  can   only get  better from  here.  none  of  us are expert  contest  organizers   ,   so   we  have  to accept   and be  patient  with the   learning  process  .  and  no  matter what, someone  is  not  going to  be    happy.

bottom  line  .. Ben  shelled  out alot  of   $  for this  ,  even went the  extra  mile  to  satisfy  all  involved  ,,  Dan         and  others   put  in time and effort    ,     we  should all  be appreciative  of  that ,  and thank  them , and boost  the probability  of  more contests  happening  .

thankless  jobs suck  .

.friendly advice ,  opinions,  and even  offers  to  help  , can  be   more  effective  and   productive and achieve  the  actual  goal, than  just    bitching  after the fact  . 

(i learned  that  last  year  while  bitching  myself  )  ;-)

so  kootoos Ben  and  Dan   etc...,   for    busting your asses  offering  these  contests .

but  get   your shit together  ;-)

lol

i  did not enter  the  contest  for  some  of the reasons  expressed  on this  page ,   ,,  but  it   was still  fun to  watch  , and  i    built and posted   pictures  of my swamp witch  steampunk  ..  to   help  give some    an idea , and example  of   steampunk.   ..  hopefully   offering    ideas   and  maybe even  raising the bar  on some designs  .  so  still   involved , and still  fun.

these contest  are  cool  in alot of ways  .. let's help  them   get  better .

and be  patient till  then  ;-)

Our lives are better left to chance, I could have missed the pain, but I've have had to miss the dance.
