I know that - I would never be so crass as to suggest that Mel Gibson was a real Australian.

I can only re-iterate my apology, I actually thought posting here was the correct thing to do (as per spam etc).

That comment wasn't directed at you, and I do appreciate being made aware of issues.

The comment (and my lack of coffee will hopefully excuse my grumpiness) is that there has been a trend in the last few days to have big long "did too!", "did not!" discussions in this forum and the lounge and it's driving me nuts.

Sorry, up until 2am then an 8am start, so I'm half way to the land of nod myself, and not entirely with it.

Yeah, it seems to be hacking a lot of people off, and I can see why after today. Hopefully it'll calm down soon.

No Articles on Article Page

When a member does not have any articles, the page that lists articles for that member looks a little barren. For one, there is an empty set of parentheses after the member alias. Also, it might be useful to have some text in the rest of the page that says "the member has not written any articles" or something like that.

These are going to be a little pedantic, so feel free to ignore them...

Two of the list items under "The Rules" don't have a period at the end of the sentence. Might as well be consistent. Smile | :)

Also, who qualifies as an "international winner"? Non-Australians? Non-Canadians? Or, will the prizes be shipped directly from Trossen Robotics (US?)?

Rules state:
By entering the contest you agree to the rules, conditions of entry, and agree that your name, member profile information, article, code and any other submitted material can be used for promotional purposes by The Code Project.

Do you really need the name of the winner to be used in promotions? Just thought I'd mention that, since some people value their anonymity. If you mean member alias, that makes more sense.

I've been meaning to post an article (or series of) myself for a couple of years on HW related stuff that I play around with - if I can find the time in the next couple of weeks - I'll enter for sure!

Nope, I don't have much interest in hardware. I do, however, get bored and read rules for competitions that don't interest me. Poke tongue | ;-P
