Big problem with mods in contests but The Project Manager should get a shot at the $100k.I'D LOVE TO HEAR YOUR FEEDBACK...91023i2ndw;l
I agree with what Bucs said.:cheersI enter most all the free contests, AND the post up ones....would really hate it if we were not allowed in, as we are all posters as well....its fun competition, and makes the site better......contests are what got me into the forum gig.......i have rarely seen posters complain about it, since in most every contest, everything is visible for all to see, so its no different than any poster entering......
As long as JMan's not at the controls.I enter most all the free contests, AND the post up ones....would really hate it if we were not allowed in, as we are all posters as well....its fun competition, and makes the site better......contests are what got me into the forum gig.......i have rarely seen posters complain about it, since in most every contest, everything is visible for all to see, so its no different than any poster entering......
from what I've seen out of the mods, compete is the operative word.Mods should be able to compete. 12io4j2w90
You were at Shrink's party where every mod won a door prize. Mods won 70% of the drawings and were 2% of the posters. j/kNO
But the ones where plays are hidden until after a set deadline could allow a Mod the chance to see his opponent's plays w/o the opponent seeing the Mod's
Other than that..................the Mods are posters here so why shouldn't they be allowed to play
Conflict of interest if you ask me!

Looks like a lot of people would like mods to be in the contests.
My only thought on it would be better for a regular poster to win than a mod (or any other type of paid poster).
A mod winning would just bump out a poster who would have otherwise won.

So do you think the same about post up contests where the mod has to post up as well?
Then also if mods should not play in them do you think the owner should?
What if the Mod who won the contest was not planning on collecting the money ?? :+clueless
Post up contests may be different because they player is paying out of pocket to enter, which puts everyone on level ground.
Just a gut feeling. Maybe there are good reasons to have EOG employees winning free contests? Not many people seem to have a problem with it. Some do.
I would think it would add to the ideal that mods are posters as well. As long as the mod running the contest is honest and fair there should be no worries, not to mention I can not see any of the mods we have right now cheating for a few dollars.
One other note, I do not think the other moderators would take too kindly to one that was caught cheating if it ever did happen. Shrink is very big on trust, and that to me would be a massive violation of trust.
i agree!
dont the mods get paid?:+clueless
why would they want to take $$$ away from posters?:+clueless
they have a job and a paycheck.....because of posters?:+clueless
I dunno. These people take these contests VERY seriously and there's always somebody checking on it, taking screenshots, 24/7, whatever. I think that anyone chicanery would be exposed.
That goes for any site. It's always cracked me up.
If anything, it just causes headaches for Kenneth, because almost invariably, someone will accuse a mod of cheating, in one way or another.
For that reason, I would just leave them out of it. Especially shady assholes like Raiders and Journeyman (who already got busted at the RX for this exact thing).
EGO is just too dumb to run any sort of scheme.
Let him play.

I personally feel that if you enter the contest, at the very least you should be an active player.
I would say 60 % of the people are not active players fwiw
Shrink
maybe you should have a weekly contest for active players:cheers
shit I am starting to sound like PO69:+textinb3
