Yeah, she's American, but you are definitely not the first person to make that kind of mistake. Her name is throwing people off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much shorter do you want it?

I won't make any decisions yet about how soon or hosting, I need some time to think it over as do we all. We'll be able to move forward as a community, so you don't need to put all of that burden only on yourself, because I speak for everyone saying that we're here to help with our ideas and imput regarding the contest moving forward. As for the timing, I fully agree. We need at least some sort of break to reset, because if we would start to scramble for host right now, we would be disrespecting and brushing off the issue that we just had on our hands.

Olympian1010 7,951 Posted February 11, 2020 #327 Share Posted February 11, 2020 I’ll be host, I always new this contest would be unique, I just didn’t expect for it to end like this I am sorry for those who did want to participate. This also doesn’t really feel like a victory for those of us that didn’t want to. It sucks for everyone, and it’s unfortunate to have such an issue plague one of the Crown Jewels of the forum. I agree with @OlympicIRL and @Werloc that it may be best to just take some time off. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

dezbee2008 814 Posted February 12, 2020 #330 Share Posted February 12, 2020 So, I left after a few days and this drama showed up I'm sorry @bestmen feels that way, but rules are rules, and he cannot keep changing goal posts in order to keep Israel from competing in the contest @Dnl You are welcomed to take part in this contest. I'm looking forward to hearing your entry when the time comes And to @Olympian1010 I got your DM on Twitter and I'm sorry I didn't process it right away as I am battling a cold (which is NOT the Coronoavirus, okay, I'm fine) mrv86 and Dnl 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
