Tractorman810 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 it is being discussed at present, however we do have concerns, as last year when we had people begging for this, and also the summer harvest one , we made the effort to sort itall out , and only 2 people took the time to enter, and they were not any of the people making all the noise in the first place, hence why its not been posted as or today, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FNHIR Posted April 27, 2011 Author Share Posted April 27, 2011 That can be a risk alright The competitions in 2006, '07 and '08 were very well supported as far as I can remember, and the discussion threads that went alongside them also led to good discourse, it'd be great if we could replicate that. Prizes would be a good motivation for people to enter but I realise that they cost money too and getting them sponsored or donated would be very difficult Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 it wasnt for the lack of effort, same formats were used as per previous years , indeed as we would this time round,just for some reason we had so much outrage it wasnt up, so we did it, and no one made the effort to support it ,it kind of made us wonder why bother . as for prizes as you say finding someone to provide them or sponsor the event isnt a easy thing to sort either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
