Comments on: Have they no shame? http://orbittrap.ca/?p=438 A Blog About Fractal Art Tue, 09 Feb 2010 05:35:36 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: fractalmania http://orbittrap.ca/?p=438&cpage=1#comment-1061 fractalmania Sat, 07 Nov 2009 07:22:38 +0000 http://orbittrap.ca/?p=438#comment-1061 Say what... I've been reading your rants on this contest for a while, some of your claims are valid, some are irrelevant. However, as biased as you thought this contest was, there were hundreds of entries and I can assure you that there will be even more for the next contest. Obviously, some people are fine with the way this contest is run and it's not just the judges' friend circles either. If you think you have a better idea on how to run a contest, organize one! Get enough people to participate, and your point will be made much more effectively. Because this contest is pretty much the only serious fractal art contest out there and currently seems like the only official authority on it (I don't think it should be). If you think your opinion is agreed on by enough people to make a difference, why don't you go ahead and do something about it other than writing about it?
