ATP/WTA RACQUET-erring Contests

I did not see you say anything.

I don't care about winning. Like I said to start with it was a bit rude to make a rule against me alone after the contest is 90% over.

EP should of simply apologized for the error, unless he really thinks what he did was fair. But he can well and truely **** himself now.

Nah I didn't say that. Hard enough for me to keep up with my own contests. I was just saying that someone would've bitched guaranteed. Putting yourself out there to run contests sucks. Anyone who looks in my threads sees it every time and my format hasn't changed in over 2 yrs? Same crap every time. That's why I can understand where EP's coming from especially running a new one. But I get your side too because it sucks when it feels like someone is accusing you of cheating even if you weren't. Same happened to me with Empire as I'm sure you saw and I lashed out because I was so offended that anyone would think that after this long. EPs a good guy and so are you. I don't think he was accusing you of anything. Just trying to make the contest clean. Anyway, you're two of the best in this little ditchhole tennis forum that we all love. Hope you guys can sort it out. xo

[Optional]

I run at least 1 contest every week. I understand that people can be dicks.

I always act fairly though.

Anyway, not a big enough deal to worry about really I guess.

I understand both sides. Spirit of contest was one way, but wasn't specified. Both good guys, let's make up and move on.

With shari's contests it's a different story because since they're big and SBR sponsors (or has sponsors) big prizes, you wind up with cheaters like ttwarrior and patty entering. Pretty sure that kind doesn't enter EP's friendly contests.
