I agree to the terms of the amendment. Sounds fair in my opinion.

No? If you're going to use IRC, use a real client dadgummit.

I'd like to propose the following amendment to the RAD 2 contest rules for
Deadlines:
* If your shell is not received by 23:59 GMT Monday 21 July, you will be disqualified.
* If you have submitted your shell, but it causes URU to crash, you will be notified. Then you must immediately fix the problem and re-submit your shell within one hour of notification, or you will be disqualified.
* If you wish to appeal your disqualification, post your appeal on the GoW forums, stating the reasons for your late submission. All RAD 2 judges will review the appeal, then vote whether to include your submission. The majority of the judges must vote yes for your submission to be included.
What do the judges think?
[EDIT] Clarified point #2
Sounds good to me

Good thing to have rules set for how to handle late submissions. I'm all for that amendment. And there is a way for an age-builder to 'be late and in' if he/she have a real good explanation (RL ie

) see # 3.

I'm really glad I had written up that wiki page, makes everything a lot easier to handle, including this

Given that the majority of judges have approved the amendment, I added it to the
RAD2 contest rules. I also sent a PM to the contestants to review the amendment, to ensure that everyone is aware of it.

Just wanted to let you all know that I have removed myself from the contest. I'm afraid that Real Life has interfered too much, that I have not had time to work on the Shell at all. That and I have other obligations going on with Age Creation that I'm having to pay more attention to.
So good luck to all the other contestants, wish you the best, and can't wait to see what everyone has done!

That's sad, I was looking forward to your shell. I hope you'll have the time to complete it later.
