The reason we're having problems is that there is no capitalization or punctuation in either of your posts. It makes it rather hard to decifer what you mean.
I think you're saying that you can take the whole section with a lot of angle. Is that correct?

Please use decent grammar
By highschool I'm sure you know something about properly punctuating your sentences. Your sentence structure seems more like something you'd expect to see in the journal of a young elementary school student. It only takes an extra fraction of a second to insert a period and capitalize a letter.

Anyways, back to the challenge... I think thats what we came here to discuss.

And it's this kind of attitude that keeps the drift forum looked down upon by the rest of the GTP community. It's always good to use the best grammar that you can. No point in sounding like a small child when you don't have to.

DFP may be harder, but it has greater potential. The range of control is much broader. I don't think there should be any handicap points for what type of controller you use.

He doesn't have to do anything. You're free to do whatever you please, but if you want people to understand you, punctuation is a good place to start...
For instance, in this post I've chosen to use several different types of punctuation. Notice the commas, the apostrophes, periods, and even elipses. All of these things help with understanding what I'm trying to communicate.
It's only a couple more key strokes per sentence

Plenty of time for all. I wanted to grant enough time so that eveone had at least 3 weeks of drifting time and replay time, plus a week or so for video construction.
I've also updated the first post to include a second place award and hint about an additional prize for first place.

One thingie, is this honor price thing just the honor you automatically get, or a planned suprise or something else. Cause I wanted to ask to do this kind of reward for every weeks competition, if it's free AND if it's an actual reward.
I REALLY don't know if I'm gonna mis this award, but I'll sure be posting it at the end of the competition if I make it (that way theres NO WAY for you guys to make a better vid. quickly before the ending of the competition
).

It will be a suprise award announced when voting on the final three videos. It'll not be something that can be given away every week. No, it's not free. Yes, it is an actual award.

Yes, I will know who sent me the link. That is why I want the link PM'd to me, so that I can keep "who" as tightly under wraps as possible. As I've figured it so far, I'll download the videos sort them and then host them off deralta.net for the final judging, renamed of course to protect the creator.
What I mean by anonymous is that when I post the poll of which three are the top, there will be no markings whatso ever showing who did it. If someone in the midst of the poll thread pops up and Says "Hey, I'm #2", it'll get DQ'd. If it's a random person that pops up and claims it's theirs, I'll smack them and show them the door.
I'll keep all possible ways of discovering who created it, hidden away.
Rest assured, I'll only give out as much info as necessary. I want this to be as fair as possible and as unbiased as possible. Hence why I'm having the final judging done by all of you.
I want the judging on everyones part to be anonymous. If I know, that's fine, as I'm just narrowing it down to the top three. If I can't narrow it down to three, I'll call in other sources and let them view the anonymous videos. I will be the only one to know who's videos are who's. If the other sources can't decide (with justifiable reason) I'll post more than three.
