Ok, folks, sorry for being a bit absent for the events happening here. Again, I don't want to feel that the decision has to only come down to me, but I think what Spinnaker posted is pretty much what was expected.

TopSide, if I'm reading your response right and you're simply posting up pictures in the thread, I'm going to have to ask that you don't unless it's intended to meet the challenge posted, as it's going to cause some confusion for those following the challenges. Also, if you do post to meet a challenge, you should post up your challenge to everyone else in bold, as it is stated in the rules. Don't worry about taking the pic down (it's a nice one), but I think we'll go with Spinnaker retaining his point and have Spinnaker put up the next challenge.

I don't really see a problem with your suggestion of ending at the end of the year for this first shot at a picture game thread, Spinnaker. I was actually thinking of having it be a month-to-month thing at some point, and maybe seeing about there being a sort of lil' prize for folks (like Johnny Danger's suggested car color-matched keychain...it's like you guys are in my head!), for whoever gets the most points in the month, and then maybe a bit bigger prize for most in the year. However, I feel there'd have to be a rule change going back to people going out and taking the pictures for the express purpose of meeting the challenge rather than being able to use recent pictures.

I think it'd have to be a discussion, but not one that I'd want to clog up this thread with. Seeing as we've got plenty of PM space now, folks can go right ahead and PM me suggestions and discussions, and I'll PM you my e-mail to get that spreadsheet, Spinnaker, and confirm your points total. I appreciate that.
