Is it a disqualification if we try to insist that perhaps the real monster... is man.

I get the joke, but I think it might be best if we don't allow humans for this.

A bit off topic. What if I don't want those participation ribbons, can I turn them off or something? It's a bit depressing, like "thanks for participation but you screwed up", brrr.

Don't worry. Everybody (who tried) has them.

I like to think of those trophies as a symbol that there is still room for improvement. Also, some progress on my personal piece, some criticism would be appreciated!

Whoa whoa whoa. There have been some fantastic pieces in competitions that only got participation ribbons. Just because a piece didn't get top 3 doesn't mean it is a failure.

If fool got a particpation then it must have been a tough comp. I actually was lucky enough to talk to him once. I got the shock of my life when he said his pencil skills werent very good.

Hahaha i thought to my self if your not very good, then what exactly does that make me? Haha lol.
