I've never come less than third in any of the TA contests i've ever chosen to enter. By that reasoning should I not do the next one? btw I don't really care, and am just playing devils advocate here. But if someone did actually enter, even if it was THE_Chris who just sent a simple PM saying he didn't know any, then that person should be able to do the next one if they choose. But tbh this thing has become a bit of a joke now anyway, this contest being the proof.

Also, it isn't exactly hard to get a thread sticked. A simple PM to a few choice mods would have obviously sufficed. 21 other people in the past had no trouble doing this.

oh quit being a bitch Jan. The person who made the prev contest (And mikey - he did pm mods with no luck to get it stickied) has the discretion to choose, lets just get it going again & pack the politics or whatever up

Originally posted by Sand Leaper If a handful of people entered and got some right, the one with the most points should do the contest. Those are the rules. Unless nobody entered or nobody got any IDs right, I don't see why the previous winner can just choose someone to run the next contest. Why this didn't get a sticky is beyond me. Every other contest has gotten it And the next time a contest starter is so busy that it takes him/her several months to get it running, I suggest for the good of everyone that he/she passes the reponsibility over to someone who does have the time to go through with it.

Why do you have to be a bastard to me about it man? if I knew I didnt have the time I would've not taken it on in the first place, stop giving me shit about it !

I'm under a horrendous amount of pressure atm, unfairly at work, one of my colleagues left and that meant I had very little time...

Dont be arsey to me about it!

Everything about this Contest was gay... I chose tracks which I thought ppl would know... but didnt, everything about it was gay..

Ian^ came 2nd in the last contest that I won I think? I think ID Contest 22 should be scrapped and Ian does it instead, then the winner of that does 23...

you cant call mine an ID Contest when only THREE people entered it!

Sorry if I seem a bit moody guys just not having a good time of it at the mo!

I only recognized the Funaki Remix, that's a stunning tune. Other than that about 4 that ring a distant bell Make an easier 1, simcut, I think it's the way to go really. imo of course.

Well, I really odnt have the time, honestly now, I have a day off work today, but I had to fight for that to the death.... my workplace is a nightmare now....

Ian^ is going to do the real ID Contest 22, as I believe he was runner up in UglyDave's one.... I should've chosen him to do this in the first place, but I tried doing it myself and ended up choosing an ID Contest that was too hard, I cant win!

Nevermind, let Ian^ do ID Contest 22 and be done with it....

I'm not arsey, I'm trying to be fair. You have 3 entries. Don't you think they feel a bit ripped off when the starter just decides to disregard them and choose someone else who didn't win to run the next one, just cos the contest didn't get all the interest he wanted?

And let's face it, if you are so busy with your work, passing the contest along to someone else would be the best thing to do. That way you can focus on your work without letting this distract you, and someone else with the time to do it can get it up and running much quicker.

Suit yourself. Next time I'm having a comp and I think it didn't get enough interest, I'll just choose who will run it next time myself regardless of the results.
