legacyme3 : by spamming I meant content that shouldn't be there in the first place. I think we both agree that Crazy House is borderline spamming because the subjects are prone to that: throw something at the person below you, I ban you because, etc. Yes I DID use Crazy House only to fill my "quota" because it's so generous. I suggested in the past to have that lowered to 10 percent to improve quality.


I disagree with your assessment of my review critics. They may be short, but at least I justify why I (didn't) like someone's critic. Not liking a review is usually better word longer posts since we see more faults.

Davideo7 : Of course I can.

It's an ingrained thing within all ZeeTees- I mean Sanspais- I mean uhhh nvm

The first day of the competition is usually really hectic, and since I'm not a super experienced TdVer I'm rather happy with myself. Maybe today I'll get even more or possibly a jersey (probably not today but next week? :3). I mean, I have all this extra time on my hands so why not?

Today's Double CP Action is Video Submission.

Davideo7 starts out with the lead.

What do you know, I got a point on day 1 without even trying 0_0

Congratz on starting with the lead David. Do you think you'll try to hang onto it until you start that new job?

Good job David! The yellow jersey and rainbow banner is a really nice combination with your username I still don't have time to compete today even though my school's 5K is done. This TdV's start is not near as crazy as the last one, but that's understandable with people having a ton of homework every day and busy weekends. :/

Wow, so much pink on the standings. We don't have many female active members, so it's very nice to see three of them placing.

It would be nice if we had a female winner. Besides the almighty Singelli that destroyed all jerseys and banners just four years ago, we've only had three other female users to walk away with an overall jersey and three others to walk away with the white banner.

I already know of one user who isn't interested in winning, but there is one who has shown willingness to aim for a high spot, and seeing how she's not far away from the people in front of her who might go inactive for real life and/or having already won the competition she could have a big chance here.

EX Palen : (you're referring to me right?)

I was originally not planning on winning this thing, but if I keep doing as well as I'm doing right now, I might consider it :p. Hopefully someone won't randomly jump in and absolutely wreck me.

Also if I do win somehow, does that mean that I'll also be the first 13 year old to win? :3

What the hell, I already got disqualified? Is posting a guide on the first of the month a crime now?

Sanspai : Uh......I think he might be talking about me.....I know palen to well with his speeches....


Anywho, looks like the competition has started I now look forward to see how it will end. Another month, other tdv. Lets see how this month folds for those who are competition in this....festive season.....I'm sure all will be well. I look forward to seeing what happens and the days that will come and go.

Well, today's one of the only chances I'll have this week to try and earn a jersey, so I guess we'll see what happens. I'd like to lower the amount of jerseys I need to finally reach 100 sooner rather than later.

janus :

Despite my comments about spam, this is one thing I'd like to know as well.

Of all the posts you made, the one I thought to have the most value was your guide.

-----

EX Palen :

That's what happens when 90% of your active memberbase are guys.

OK, so it's not quite 90% but we're a predominantly male site.

-----

Sanspai :

If you go for the win, I'll support it. Would be interesting at least.

legacyme3 : But why did I still got disqualified from red and yellow? There was no way anyone could beat me with the present results.

janus : Posting that guide on the first day was exactly the reason why you were DQ'd from yellow and red. It's a dirty move that you've used multiple times in the past to get yourself in the lead in past competitions, and we're not letting you get away with that anymore.

Ok so this is what baffles me.....I go to sleep around after 1am not being happy because I didn't get to where I wanted to post for that night. But big bro suggested some sleep plus zlinqx too saying I will be able to post the rest for the next day. And so, I wake up after 4am not wanting to sleep for some reason I come on my laptop, and....nothing has changed much. I'm not complaining in a way no, no just observing something that has never happened before. So more like surprised. But anyways I don't think other things have surprised me more than this....

gamerforlifeforever :

Not to defend janus, but theoretically, would you hold that same line if he had posted the guide on day 2? It would basically be worth the exact same amount of points, but you seem to base the entire DQ on the time in which it happened.

If you would not DQ him on Day 2 for the same behavior as you did on day 1, I'm sorry, I can't follow that logic.

While it's a "dirty" move, it's not one strictly outlined in the TDV.

The closest rule I could cite is this:

"-You're caught cheating or unfairly earning Contribution Points"

And this would be incredibly subjective. Is it really cheating to utilize a guide on day 1? What's the point in having a day 1 if you can't post what you want to post? It harshes the vibe of creativity that much more, and it becomes confusing as to just what the "goal" of the TDV is.

I mean, don't get me wrong. I don't disagree that janus should be dq'd, but I don't think it should be on the basis of a guide that he actually "did" write. Especially when he submitted it so early in the day. Now if he had continued to churn out a guide day after day, that would be a little suspicious. DQ'ing on day 1 (which effectively ends any chance janus has at contending for the TDV) for something like this is a little silly, at least in my opinion. Just my two cents.

legacyme3 : It's not fair to start the day with 8000 words, simply because it's obvious you haven't worked on it during the current month.

Stacking up work from previous months has always been a gray zone in the TdV, but this is too extreme. Who would want to compete if midway through day one we already have someone with a massive lead? Who would want to participate when two overall jerseys already have a clear leader?

It may seem we're being a bit too picky, but we've also been too lenient. It's the fourth time janus is doing "dirty" moves like this one, and it comes a time when enough is enough. He's a past winner, so he, more than anybody else, should show a bit of fair play and not resort to these dirty tricks.

A guide can easily net you a yellow and red jerseys AT ANY TIME of the month, so there's literally no reason to post something written on past months this early. Anything that can potentially kill the competition even before it starts must be punished, and it's not like he has been free of warnings the other times he made these "dirty" tricks in the past, even in the edition he ended up winning.

Not l33t enough, Leggy.  (Sorry, felt like posting that here)


Anyway, i wonder how it turns out if Cox becomes the winner again. But today is only day 3... Well, in the Netherlands. Anyway, it's early, so things can change insanely fast.

MarioLucarioFan64 : I found your post really funny, way to post something so crazy as this. XD

Looks like things are going pretty well I think well maybe for some people it may not be? Since its basically different for everyone with how they post and all. I guess maybe since.....posting with friends and all it won't be too bad. If I am going to be honest its really fun posting with friends than the competition being there. I think.....its the only way I can enjoy the tdv not the competition as said, but your friends posting. Even ones who have been inactive for a while, so it brings a smile on my face to see that.

Welp, only one point away from first place. I should be able to get the lead after today's results.

And ahhhh school is a thing but during school I'm gonna write some bios & possibly a review so that all that time at school isn't wasted (Vizzed is blocked at school).

Sanspai : Oh dear sorry to hear about that, I am sure you will make things somehow work in a way. Its a bummer the school blocked vizzed off for you. :/
