I would like to point out something to everyone at the forums...

I am not trying to show-off in any way, but...

I am the person who truly deserves to win the competition...

I got 1.19 and if that's a mistake, it's 1.25 on my time, and in 4 shots.

I tried very hard and the only reason I lost is b/c PSM2 don't like me very much, b/c they say I call them too many times.
Well...the only reason why I keep calling them is because they told me to call back the next day, because the person I wanted to speak to was not in. They told me call the next day, call the next day, and call the next day. So I did. And what do I get for it...Hatred!

It’s not fair! I am not moaning...so no funny remarks posted here please.

I kept this in my mind from day until night. All I could think about was the day I would receive my prize. But noooohhh…. PSM2 hate me, so I lost.
I did not even get a runner's up prize - HOW RUDE!!!
PSM2 know that I spent money to present entry well. Money I could not afford.

Well…I guess that's life, and there is just nothing I could do about it.

Oh yeah, and one more thing…
The people who won…I wish them all the best, but PSM2 were not accepting any newer entries in the last month. So if there was a different winner last month, how could there be a new one this month…they were not accepting in any more entries. (Rhetorical question).

Anyway…I guess I'll see you guys around…

I was gutted, but still, I don't cry ;o)

I am not crying , I am actually very proud...and I believe you about the compo at the store.
I believe you b/c there is no reason why you should lie.

I hope all you other GAD members here can understand as much as GasMask does regarding my win.

Thank you

You didn't win, quit whining!

It achieves nothing, no pity, no respect. If your name was in the magazine, then fair enough. But its not.

This idea that the magazine has singled you out and exempted you from the competition was frankly ludicrous - but now I'm starting to understand why.

I always talk good about you I am the Tarrant so please show some respect (I don't mean that in a rude manner dude)

And a short message for everyone at the forums, I mean no harm in this topic, please do not take anything to heart or rude in what I say.

I like everybody here...and I really do not want any problems with anyone

Thanks

p.s. I hope this ends this topic...I have had all weekend thinking about it day in and day out

Thanks everyone

Be well

You friend Son Of Liberty

Fair enough, don't wish to make any enemies here.

I just thought that you saying the magazine hate you was a bit, er childish?

But yeah, lets let it drop.

I can now too take out Olga in 4 shots :-)

Cheers!

Heh.

Seriously though, you win, you lose, but if you're happy with your time/entry/topic whatever, who cares if you win or not. Sit happy in the knowledge that you were the true winner.
