Greenmako · Jan 29, 2020

I'm having to bow out, I'm having to move my tank into a friends place while I move houses, so I won't be able to send in new pictures.

Robink · Jan 29, 2020

This is pretty much what mine finished as. Couple days past 1yr but my last entry was last month.

I know contest is over. Just happy about the way bliss is turning out. Was going to sell it off when contest was done. I changed my mind.

Happy easter!! I hope you're all well and safe.

I quit doing contest. To much stress added to the hobby.

I realize people get busy. But all these contest I've been in, seam to make good vendors not look so good. Pretty much have to get rough with them to get am answer.

Pretty sure this contest was written off. No one really said anything, and it got brushed under the rug.

Mine died halfway through. Well I guess I killed it... Go to page one of this thread to hit the link to each of the bliss and shag specific contest threads. Only a few folks made it all the way

Correct I was one of them and would like to see if I got a prize

AngryOwl · Jun 16, 2020

So is the conclusion here that all but 3 people across 2 grow outs dropped out and then the winners never got announced nor paid their winnings?

Awe man I am so sorry that this got abandoned. I'll confess in the past contests, I didn't really run them or organize them at all. When the end came I got sent a few pics from the guys who were running it, to pic from and chose the winner. I am so sorry for this one. Have been stupidly busy and haven't checked in on this thread often enough./.

however, I was contacted by Smiley28 back in March to let me know that he'd won. I wasn't exactly sure how it all came to be, I figured you guys had made the decision. and i was going to fulfill my part of the bargain. I went back a forth a while, with him, there was some lag. but i have not heard back from him since my last PM late may. so at this point, I really have no idea where this one is or was left off, and i am really sorry about that.

so maybe we can start here Can I ask, who was the original organizer of this one? I honestly don't remember. And can we all come to an agreement on who the winners are? I am fully ready and able to award the winners here let's just get this figured out guys

Ok cool. I'm just taking a guess that he really didn't run this one quite like the others i was involved in, so we are going to have to round up some pics of the final entries and see what everyone who was still involved came up with

Hey, just to clarify I wasn't trying to be mean or call anyone out, just wanted to see it come to a better conclusion than abandoned lol We all know you're a stand up guy with the highest integrity and I don't want anyone to think my post was a statement otherwise!

With that said I feel obligated to post you the links to the official entries, where you can see on the last page who made it.
