I assume that is supposed to be some sort of mockery ? Good job, it's important to discourage people who are willing to shell out prizes from thier own pockets in an attempt to create some fun for the community.

*sigh*

You assume wrongly.

Surprisingly, for someone that joined in 2005, you obviously haven't been on the site long enough to get the joke, even though there's an entire social group based on it here...

It's absolutely nothing to do with mocking the competition - which I might add was a superb idea, or discouraging people from taking part in it. It was simply in-joke at the expense of a fellow long-time member who I'm sure would have understood the reference.

Still, seeing as it offended you so deeply, I've removed it.

Is that real? Amazing.
I'm pretty sure that the next one, with more time available (how about 6 or 8 months), and with prizes like:
* Jon Hare's 1200
* Dinner with Cammy :)


The latter could be a seriously expensive prize if the winner is from a long way outside Oz :-)

Wow Cammy! Pretty girls who love Amiga's are just what this site needs. Would any others please come forward ;)

@ Karlos

Whatever happened to your work colleague Mel_Zoom who created quite a stir with her new user introduction thread? I think it had over 5000 views in a couple of days  :)

.

In a word, the recession happened. The place is rather a lot smaller nowadays. Last I remember she was off to conquer C/C++ :)
