banshee Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Hey all! The final tanks look great! Just wanted to pop in and say hello! Sorry for disappearing in August but I changed jobs suddenly and since the tank was on my desk it had to come down and move into my 14G. Good luck to the final 5! Link to comment
Islandoftiki Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Hey all! The final tanks look great! Just wanted to pop in and say hello! Sorry for disappearing in August but I changed jobs suddenly and since the tank was on my desk it had to come down and move into my 14G. Good luck to the final 5! Hey, long time no see! So many great tanks that didn't quite make it to the end... Yours was one that was going to be in the running for sure! My fiance was rooting for your tank; she wanted to see a girl win one of the prizes. Link to comment

Formula462 Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Man I actually have a pretty badass pico now, I just need to find an aperture setting that can shoot that blue ass led. Link to comment
Veng Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 Sucks this is how this thread ended up in the end.... Link to comment
ReefersEdge Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Maybe by Christmas...... Link to comment
Bobyboy Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 i was keeping mine going in hopes of getting the beginners luck frag pack but I'm on the verge of upgrading to something a bit bigger now. Link to comment
Kazooie Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I think we're all kinda hoping for prizes still. Link to comment
FlCandy Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I was hoping to see who won. Link to comment
Kazooie Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Someone send a pm to the sponsers/dallas? Link to comment
Islandoftiki Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I honestly don't care about the prizes. I want bragging rights. Link to comment
funkngroovy Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Is micro reefs or dallasprstn still on here or posting. I don't give two hoots about the prizes or the comp but this is poor form for a business to not follow up. Link to comment
FlCandy Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I feel bad for everyone who participated and bought the tanks etc to get them in this contest and now there is nothing not even bragging rights. Really not cool. Link to comment

I don't give two hoots about the prizes or the comp but this is poor form for a business to not follow up. +1. I don't think it's proper at all for a business, especially a sponsor of the nano-reef forums as well, to just disregard their commitments like this. Link to comment
BigRok Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 This isn't so unusual. Every contest goes the same way. 50+ people enter with a lot of buzz and excitement. Then 45 people drop out at various times and the excitement level dies down a little bit each month until it's basically the 5 contestants sharing their experience with each other. At the end of the contest, the organizers have all but disappeared, the prizes are nowhere to be heard of, and the contestants would just like to know who won. This happened last time in the 1 year pico contest of 2010. At the end, the contestants posted some side by side pictures in a poll and everyone on the forum was welcome to vote on the winner. Yeah, it's not what you were promised, but life never really is. At least you can have some resolution if you decided to put it up to popular vote. Link to comment

I wonder if we could get an impartial 3rd party to set this up? I'd be happy to do it, but I'm one of the contestants, so I don't know if that would be appropriate. Of course, it would be better than nothing, so if we don't have a volunteer, I'll start setting it up next week. 1 Link to comment
ReefersEdge Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 ? Still....... nothing........ really? Link to comment
Islandoftiki Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Can we get the results even if there aren't any prizes? Can any of the judges just say who their favorire would have been? Link to comment
MeanGreenEyes Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 This is just effin' sad and pathetic...definitely won't do business with the sponsors for bailing on their commitments...as stated above... Link to comment

I'm totally impartial. Link to comment
