Well the rules were changed after the start of the monthly contest. The "No REX" clause was added after a few people complained about the Payware skies, which is fine. I think that those who used payware weather have every right to be in the running. From here on out we cant use them and now everyone knows. I am glad i made it into the top ten and wish much luck to all other contestants.

U4EA I agree with you about the Mods & Simv as a whole. Their great.

But I still think that the shots that involve cheating should be replaced by shots that conform to the rules so the people that read the rules & obeyed them get a chance to win.

In that case, I am now pulling my submission into this contest for violating the rules. Didn't know REX wasn't allowed when I submitted, but that is not a discussion matter now. It's not fair for those who did follow the rules and had their shot fully composed of freeware. You can't see the sky in my shot, but the water is composed of REX's Sparkling wave animation. Let's make this competition a fair game, and give those who followed the rules a fair chance.

Officially pulling my submission out of this contest.

Sorry for not doing it earlier. Thankyou, and good luck to all finalists.

Regards,
Clem

Hey it's ok. You never had it written in the rules before. I get it. You noticed that a large number of people had aftermarket weather. It is not a big deal. I can adhere to the rules. I ,like many, read the rules to say no planes and no ground effects. And that's how it was worded. a lot of hollering from people about all this REX stuff. Need to calm down and remember that the issue was resolved. I think everyone FULLY understands the rules now and will adhere to them in the future. If you have a issue with someones submission then don't vote for it. There are many great submissions and I am sure some of you may have forgot, but this is all for fun.

I really don't care if some people didn't know about the rule.

You still should be disqualified in my opinion.

BTW I don't care what you say in the "Firehouse" it doesn't make it any different you still are in the wrong.

[FIREMAN79]

yes I was wrong, and will be adhering to the rules in future contests. But the rules did not clearly state that weather was not allowed. That is the root of this issue.
