Are you folks really that serious about this contest?
No.
I SIMPLY posed the question to get the pulse of the forum.
Thre's more joking that goes on (and more kudos/atta-boys/congrats/etc...) than you'd ever imagine. Everybody is rooting for everyone....I recall having a WONDERFUL time with it, last year.
It is NOT "serious"...but it IS "competitive" (in a light manner). There's nothing wrong with that.
