What do you think about my previously suggested method of resolution? At the end of the day you want to be part of the drawing right? Wouldn't this course of action do that? Why not suggest it to them?
I did suggest it, but they insist that the below term applies for everyone (even if you don't enter via forum):
For the Week 2 we have the additional requirement: you will need to post at least 10 messages before the next round for each of your forum's links, otherwise those will not be counted.
On an semi-unrelated note, blenderio now has
three positive trust feedbacks from three newbies that all recently woke up, with their last post in 2018.
The requirements were somewhat ambiguous. I am not sure I would support a negative rating, though I agree this could potentially be interpreted as shady behavior. I would make this suggestion for a solution. The terms should first be clarified, then the people who participated but did not meet the post requirement should have their stakes rolled over to the next drawing after meeting the new clarified requirements (assuming the program is still active). This IMO is an equitable solution for all parties and is mutually restorative for all.
Eh, no you didn't, you kind of just demanded the part you want and left the rest out.
