Yes. My entry is one of the three. Only 12 to go!! Ah ok, you had said earlier that there had been three entries so far but that you intended to enter your own photo, that's probably where the idea of four came from. Sometimes the present tense and future tense can run at the same time, but then, you may have a point. Anyway, three or four is a long way shy of fifteen.

Good luck, so you, John and Nick then. If you meant me, I have not entered any photos ..... I have yet to decide if I will or if I will give it a miss. It was something I enjoyed taking part in immensely but all the joy now seems to have been sucked out of it

John, stick a photo up on jenlyn's thread so we can all see it.
We can rescue this I'm sure.
You've posted some lovely shots of big boats this year.

Sometimes the present tense and future tense can run at the same time, but then, you may have a point. Anyway, three or four is a long way shy of fifteen. There won't be fifteen entries. You have to accept that the entries you have received so far are almost certainly all that you will get, and that everybody else will be entering Jenlyn's far less tightly regulated photo competition.

I never claimed they had, hard to do when carved in stone. I said you were confused about your multitudinous rules, amply demonstrated by your reply then correction to Gazza. Do fewer rules next time, then you won't get confused. Simple. What correction? in one post, which included a pic of the brass magnet, you asked gazza to enter it "You'll have to send it to me via e-mail or PM. Does it have a title?" Read more: thunderboat.boards.net/thread/4191/thunderboat-photo-competition-2018-update?page=2#ixzz5Vro7xuyXLater, your confusion cleared and you realised you had brazenly flouted, broken and trampled on your own rules and you issued a corrective missive and told Gazza that he couldn't enter it because it had been posted in this thread, a point that had been obvious to several sharper minds. "Good point, Jimbo. Disqualified, Gazza. Sorry." "What correction?" indeed.

"I summon you to fulfill your oath. None but the king of Gondor may command me. That line was broken. It has been remade. Fight for us... ...and regain your honor. What say you? What say you? You waste your time, Aragorn. They had no honor in life, they have none now in death. I am Isildur's heir. Fight for me... ...and I will hold your oaths fulfilled. What say you? You have my word! Fight, and I will release you from this living death! What say you?!"

When kids get off my bus and I tell them to be careful "Not to fall into the ditch" it doesn't mean I mean it.

Excuses with the benefit of hindsight. The damned rules are ingrained in our hearts, they've been posted so many times. As an aid memoire, or so we can ignore them again; 1. Entries are to have been taken during this year 2018, and have not been published anywhere else. 2. Enties are to have been taken preferably with this competition in mind. The theme is to be of boats and navigationable waterways or similar, as befitting the general spirit of the Thunderboat discussion forum. 3. Entries are to be sent to my e-mail address: tullynessleturnip@yahoo.com, or to be sent to me via Thunderboat’s Personal Message service (with your name, of course, and a possible title for the your submitted photo). I shall show all entries on Friday 23rd November on a separate voting/poll thread, and there will be two weeks for voting up until Midnight Friday 7th December. Photos entered for this competition but displayed elsewhere will be disqualified. This thread is not for posting entries. (Do not impatiently post your photos for this competition on other Thunderboat threads, keep them under wraps until Fri 23rd Nov!) There’ll be no 2019 calendar made from these photos, but I shall send small prizes to the winners of 1st, 2nd and 3rd slots assuming the competition has a decent amount of entries and is taken seriously, and to my mind I will consider a minimum of 15 entries - less than this and I shan’t bother to run the competition. Read more: thunderboat.boards.net/thread/4191/thunderboat-photo-competition-2018-update?page=1#ixzz5VsishHTeI note the final fling "15 or CBA". Anywhere near yet?
