pacman1755 : I was just wondering if I had blacked out in the last twelve days and spammed the board somewhere.   JK.

Though, I think I've noticed a similar glitch with my TP. I don't remember giving ANY TP out for at least two weeks, but I'm almost certain every time I check, vizzed tells me I've given out all my TP for the week. I've been too busy to remember the exact dates, but I'm pretty darn certain it's been at LEAST two weeks since I was able to give someone TP.

David, any idea what's going on with my account?  Was I blacklisted or something?  

Singelli : Hey, me too! I was going to rate someone, and it said "You already rated your maximum for the week" or in that line. It's really weird. Maybe something's up with the systems this month or something.

pacman1755 : ooooh so I'm not crazy and it's not just me!  What a relief! I was having trouble keeping up with the passage of time, but I had a strong feeling something wasn't right.

legacyme3 :  I don't recall posting often at all over the past two weeks, but if that's the case, that kind of sucks.  XD  So that's going to be fixed in the future?  How so?

I guess this means that someone can post twice in an hour, not post for the rest of the day, and get disqualified (because they have 2 posts in green and 2 in blue)?  Or is my brain not functioning properly?

Wow, just 8 points. One of my worst performances of the month. It looks like I hit my first big block as it's after 4Pm and this is just my first post of the day. If I want to leave an impact, I am going to need to step things up a bit.

Singelli :

There's talk in this thread right here about that very topic. There's talk of making the Green Jersey based on something else, like CP.

And yes, you are correct. The way the rules currently are, someone with 2 posts can get disqualified, even if they didn't plan on competing. That's part of why this discussion has come up.

There are other tidbits in that thread, so I suggest a thorough reading.

legacyme3 :  Ah, thanks for the link. I'm going to go read through it. I guess I've been out of the loop. I knew the whole green vs. blue rule, but it never occurred to me that posting twice in day could be a disqualifier.

EDIT:  Oh, that thread. XD

I see that you are trying to get users to help you improve the TDV, and i have a way.
mohammedroxx3 : Compete you fool!
There you have it.
This TDV won't be that hard to win, and I will be trying a little to try to get it in close, I will be starting today. I hope that I will get 20 points today *Looks at charts* Ok, I hope to get 18 points today and try for 2 or at least 1 jersey. With not much happening, I should be able to do some good for the rest of the month. Lets see how it goes, but I hope I can get some good points!

Barathemos : lol. I don't think I'm even going to be able to compete much this month. 

I'm at least happy that I got to wear a blue and green jersey today.

Dang, yesterday was very slow but today is incredibly insane.... And at the same time, not very spammy from what I have seen. I'm most likely not even going to bother today. Good luck to whoever is competing.... 

I am going to give it a shot and I am going to see what I can do today, i went on like a mini spree earlier and I managed to get on the board just from that, so i am going to see if I can get a few points today, I might just randomly jump in and start posting every now and then, so I am not sure if I am going to be competing, but I will through in my 2 cents if it is really needed to help out our team. Hopefully I can make a few points today. 

Question: Has anyone ever been DQ'd from every jersey (and not been banned)? And if I thought maybe of doing this... would I get banned for going through with it? lol

I've been watching from the sidelines, and I've decided to try to place in the top 5 in at least a jersey today. August needs the help of mrfe, so mrfe shall go for 1 point!

pray75 :  I don't think anybody's ever been banned from all four, though I know a few have been banned from two, at least.  LOL I don't think you'd be banned... maybe commended instead. XD

mrfe :  I needed that laugh... XD

Hmm... to compete today, or not compete?  That is a good question!

On one hand, been enjoying the PIECES out of forgetting work and being involved.  It's also early, early in the morning, so I have a lot of day left!

On the other hand, there are other things I could be doing..... like cleaning my house. >.>

mrfe :

Oh right, you are an August birthday too. Forgot about that. We've got a ton of users in August.

Myself, EideticMemory, megamamanmaniac, mohammedroxx3, and a couple lesser known members.

Really, if any of us cared about the TDV (or any posting competition for that matter lol) we'd probably be winning the team event.

-----

I still have to write a review this month, but I just don't have the energy right now. The TDV always completely saps my desire to do anything, even when I'm not competing. Still have 17 or so days to do it though.

And when I tell people that green is too easy, they don't listen. 30 word posts are too easy. Raise it to 50 please.
Davideo7 :
Oh well
I can try again in 2 months,
The stupidest rule in this thing. Doesn't even make any sense.

NintendoFanKimmy : "I have seen many members promise to return prominently and end up spamming just like they have before."

I have done something similar to that once. I still feel horrible about it. At the beginning of the October Tour de Vizzed of 2013, I promised to not spam. Soon after that, I spammed. At the beginning of the January Tour de Vizzed of this year, I promised to not spam and I said that I would keep that promise. I did, barely. This month, I have not promised to not spam and I have been posting better than ever! Go figure.

I always know when a Tour de Vizzed day was slow when I got in the top five of at least two jerseys. I got in the top five of the green jersey two days ago without trying!

legacyme3 : Yeah, we could totally take over the Team Competition if we wished to. Perhaps next time... I just don't have the time to go crazy with posting like I could.

I had originally planned to post my crazy long walkthrough this month, but I'm thinking that it'll have to wait for next TDV. I'm not finished it, and I still have a ton to go (meaning that I'd have to spend like 8+ hours every available day working on it to finish it by the end of the month), so I don't think it's gonna happen. July tho, I should have it finished.

Singelli comes out of nowhere and grabs 3 Jerseys.

(And when I got 36 points in 2 days, absolutely nothing was said about that, )
Green jersey green jersey, go burn in hell along with your rule.
I just don't get it.
Davideo7 : Could you (or anyone else) explain the purpose of the 50/50 rule? (Green jersey) 

Barathemos : I believe the original reason of the 50/50 Green rule is to avoid users to wait until 11 PM Server time, an hour before the day ends, and go crazy with 30 words and ninja everyone unfairly. That's also a rule about tabbing as well. It avoids, for the most part, people stocking up on big worders, waiting until the last hour, and pushing submit on every tab at once. This rule was made mostly due to septembern's actions a few years ago.

Well thank you Septembern.
Makes... A small amount of sense.
