Advice (as you should have seen in many places on the board): "Read more, post less"

Along the same lines, there are contests and passes that take place in this community that take a month or longer to complete. Members that participate in contests and passes rarely do so for your so called "pay-off". This is not the stock market or a brokerage firm, we invest in our mutual friendship and camaraderie.
I would have participated in this if I weren't so busy this summer. I don't know much about soccer, but I would have given my best shot because in the end, it isn't about winning the contest, it is about having fun with some friends... and when having fun, I don't get squirrelly when it lasts longer than a month. The PPP takes a long time, and it doesn't matter at all - and I think that everyone participating in that contest is not so interested in getting the prize... they are more concerned with the sigtag.

I borrowed the term squirrelly from Kevin - it makes me picture a squirrel running around trying to keep people away from his stash.
