The above quote was taken from the most recent post on the sticky "The Olympics Scratched Up!!" That's what I've been wondering too. What happened?
Only a few weeks ago, the Olympics was all the rage, and nearly all the new projects from scratch's best had something to do with the olympics. But now....?
When it started up, I was a bit skeptical. But when I saw how long we had, I was amazed. I could do this! So I signed up, on Germany's Alstar team. It was one of the only teams at that time. But only a day later, there were too many teams to count! Only a few days later, the contest was stickied.
And stragely enough, that's when things started to go downhill. The excitement started to wear off. You could only find the team homepages on the second or third page of show and tell.
But apperently, according to technoman, the owner of the contest, it's still up and running. My only concern now is that technoman might not be able to judges. After all, his contest being so popular, how many people are left who haven't entered?
