Well, when (IF) you come to me asking about someone elses tank, that you feel is unfair, I'll ignore you and leave that person alone.

All i asked for was a simple photo, and you went and blew it out of proportion refusing to take a pic.

And in the end, you did have SPS larger than you accounted for. (Based on your photo)

You have to admit it is hard to tell the size of a piece of SPS. Especially since he was only out .5 of an inch. Honor system should apply as this is suppose to be fun and not a bitch fest.

^^ So am I suppose to ignore another contestant when they come to me with a complaint/speculation? I feel it was fair to ask for a quick photo to find out. There shouldn't have been any harm in that. (Obviously there was).

And I do admit, it is hard to tell, and as sphelps told me in PM that pic still isn't accurate as the frag is farther back. But at least the pic gives an idea. That's all.

BTW, this is my last post regarding this mess.

Yes you should have ignored it and said the contest is based on the honor system and it's hard to tell size from a picture. A quick photo? Not really, I have to break out my big camera, install the right lens, track down my measuring tape, line it up with the tank so it sits still for a picture, take the picture, copy the file from the memory card to a computer, upload it and post it. PITA! and for what?

When the issue came up I corrected the budget for the one coral that was a little on the large size. After that you still insisted on a picture which I posted despite how outrageous I thought the request was. It's funny how now your mood has changed. I hope this is your last post on such a stupid matter and I don't ever want a PM from you which threatens to kick me out of this contest when I've followed all the rules.

You had to know that this would go downhill, didn't you?

Well I don't really think anything went downhill. I think lessons were learned and at least now I think the whole honor system will hold true.

I love going down hill... way easier then pedaling up.
