I joined the game late, but it looks like I just need to criticize the game and I get a coin? :)

All you said was first one to sink a ship wins. Not first pair to sink a ship or first group of hits to sink a ship.


It had nothing to do with how many shots you gave people. You gave people 5 shots to sink or hit a ship. If they hit it then that's as close as they got if they could sink it then they would win. If no one sunk a ship then closest to doing so would win.

I'm not worried about the schedule I don't think it's unfair because of that. It's unfair because you don't know how to explain something. I don't need an Ike its principal.

I know I'm right and even you know I'm right .

My points proven do what you want

Late to the party here but this seems like it was a fun contest. Thanks, johntookit. I love the effort you put into the graphics.

Being that this is a GIVEAWAY you are (obviously) well within your rights to tell people to pound sand.

What is wrong with you? He was trying to be nice and gave some coins away and for that you are trying to ruin his contest and the winners prizes?

And please don't blame the parents on anything! They have raised a wonderful person with a kind heart.

If you are going to pick winners based on rules you didn't state then just pick 2 people to give your coins away too and don't give people false hope. It's like saying first person to hit the triple twenty wins then taking the first 3 throwers darts and adding them together to equal sixty and saying the third person won based on other people's throws. When in fact they where no closer than the first person who hit the board

PM sent.

Cool contest. Thanks!

Just to clarify, a ship is sunk in battleship when the last grid cell that the ship is on is hit.

So a carny has a game to knock down all the bottles and you get 2 throws for 5 bottles. You make your throws and you hit only 2 bottles let's say even three or four . Does the carny reset the bottles per player or let the next guy throw 2 balls at one bottle. I'm pretty sure it reset per player. You know I remember when rules where like this it was in T-ball and I never understood it then. Even after 3 outs they still let everyone bat and take bases. Why play if you don't play it right I thought. My team lost but instead we are awarded for losing. That's the wrong msg. But hey since you combined with every other player managed to sink a ship here is your reward. Congrats great contest. Next time remind me so I can give everyone a participation trophy. What do you want a random Mercury dime for anyone who guessed? If you can guess the correct number of Mercury dimes I have then you can win . But wait if I by some coincidence can add your guess to someone else's and it happens to be the right number, then the second loser to guess wrong gets it. Yay

Sure I can understand where he is coming from with the rules being a little confusing but definitely not worth it since this was a GIVEAWAY from a wonderful CCF'er. Anyways, again, thank you for the contest johntookit and congrats to the winners!

Rule . If no one sinks the ship then person closest wins. How is that possible if we where all playing on the same grid? It's not possible because all the spaces would have been taken.

Congrats to the winners. Thanks for the contest!

Tweak your frustration is noted by all. But please understand the means and continuing way you are going on negates any point you might make and comes off as a tantrum. It is a giveaway. You didn't invest anything but the time to pick some cells off a grid. So move on to the next one and try thanking the creator of the contest since they are the ones being generous.

Call it what you will I'm just talking . Perceive it as what you want I won't lose any sleep. It only takes 30 Seconds to type a reply. I just hate ignorant people . Give away what you want doesn't change the fact to me that he is ignorant and won't admit being wrong. If he isn't wrong then he's just stupid I'll let him decide which one. Either of those 2 types of people I dislike.
