Forum Contest - "Tick-Tock!"

Now whats this .... a 3 1/2 hour only forwarning that the contest ends?

I can understand that the load of words is overwhelming, but in for a penny in for a pound, the rules where laid and the makers should ofc have understood how easy it is to just drop a word several times so the participation would be huge.

Cutting it short with such a short forwarning is not acceptable nor does it show respect for the players who play by the given rules. Which also the makers should. There should be atleast a 12 - 24 hour forwarning so most are given a chance to be aware of it.

My thoughts :wink:

  • @Summer (SKN1) I totally agree with you & we would never normally make changes to a contest that was in progress, but it is not easy to set the parameters on one that has never been tried before, so we make our best guess as to how it will pan out, based on other contests. In this case, it went much as we expected, except that it moved a lot faster, so it reached the point where there were too many duplicate words posted, a lot sooner than we expected & duplicate words do not score points.

    As you can see from the results, there is a significant gap between the point leaders & the rest of the pack, had we continued, that gap would have just increased, so by shortening the time & adding another mystery minute, more points were awarded back to the start of the contest where more people were posting valid words, which we felt was much fairer on everyone that was participating.

    We do apologise, even though it was done to benefit everyone taking part, it is still something we would prefer not to do & if we run a similar contest again, we now know to make it shorter & have more points awarded per hour. :)
