Please don't take offense to this posting.... I'm just venting, and I'm sure after a few deep breaths it will all pass 
So, it seems that everyday there is some sort of new contest on T11's forums. Now, don't get me wrong, contests are great, and even though I never win, I enjoy reading people's posts regarding the contests, and I also enjoy the daydream fantasy of me possibly (however slight the chance is) actually winning something sometime....but....
I'm a bit tired of all these trivia contests that seem to be won by those who have access to information at almost an insider level. Or, questions that have the answer in 1 thread somewhere on the web, that unless you've already seen it in the past, you'll never find it.
This is why I can't wait until this week's Saturday Night contest. Although I haven't entered in the past (never home on Saturdays)....I hope I'll be able to enter tomorrow. If the contest hasn't been decided on yet, PLEASE DON'T MAKE IT A TRIVIA CONTEST. I prefer one with creativity, like the previous Saturday night contests have been. Those have been quite good, and I thoroughly enjoyed viewing people's submissions. (still a bit shaken up by the dude with the cards for underwear, but hey....good on him for winning)
I used to belong to a music message board for a band, and almost all of the contests were won by people who knew the band, or who have met them millions of times, and who had insider information.
I mean, sometimes the questions would be almost as ridiculous as "what did so and so eat for breakfast yesterday".....
Ok, enough of my rant.....carry on with your contests
