RedTheReefer Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 I didn't even know about the FTS per month photo. I hope they do relax that rule. If not, which means I'm out of the contest, this tank is getting an upgrade to a simple UNS glass box. 😁 Quote Link to comment

In the meantime it does appear you may have to make do with a pair of lifelong-centrists in office for the next 4 years. Se la vie, more policy, appointment and legal opinions to read through. Should be enjoyable. Just so we're clear however, you do realize you're harassing another member of a rather cozy online community on baseless assumptions you've made about their political affiliation and volunteerwork, correct? 4 Quote Link to comment
banasophia Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 No one paid me... as I said before I volunteered. And as I previously mentioned, I didn’t do ballot collection/harvesting. Yes, I went to Nevada since it was expected to be a swing state. As I’m sure you can tell, I’m trying to avoid a big political discussion here... people are so divided due to politics right now and I like focusing on things that can bring us together... I’m sure you noticed I’ve stayed out of political discussions in the lounge and my chat thread as well... Just finished my water change... my macro seems to be on the loose. I guess I need to come up with a way to secure it. 4 Quote Link to comment

It must be nice to just be able to “volunteer” for a week and a half.So you were just there to give a helping hand? Or were you there to be a rioter if things kicked off? Yeah I’m laying the assholery on thick...a few weeks ago lunch with me was out of the question when I was in Sacramento but hey ima gonna travel to Nevada and give god knows what support to Biden 1 Quote Link to comment

If it makes you feel better, I am not doing holiday meals with my family either. I took the risk of exposing myself and my family to covid because the election was extremely important to me. Of course I wasn’t “rioting” and your darn well know that. I was helping with ballot curing where I drove to peoples houses that couldn’t be reached over the phone to be sure they knew there was an issue with their signature so they could follow up with their county election office to “cure” their ballot by verifying their identity with ID. Stop being such a troll. 1 2 Quote Link to comment

Sancho Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Starting to wonder how many of you ballot curing people were sent out as “volunteers” in the swing states 1 Quote Link to comment
kimberbee Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Covid or no covid, people are gonna make time for the things that are important to them. So, how 'bout you guys take your politics and flirting to another thread or to DMs instead of having this random convo in the official contest thread? 7 2 2 Quote Link to comment

I blame my phone for that one lol. Sancho I can absolutely assure you, if you actually cared or were invested past topicality and identity whatsoever, you'd be wondering nothing at all of the sort. I think the part where everyone is saying it's best to stop would be a great hint to cut the vierre, or maybe it's the 4 years I spent volunteering to help people get out of extremist mindsets and organizations. In case anyone stumbles-in curious here's a link to a, plain-english, legal professor and tutor on the current goin's-on. 1 Quote Link to comment

Lorenz725 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I can’t believe how it flew bye! I am really happy on the progress of my tank. Will be interested to see how many people were able to keep their tank going all year with everything that has been going on. 2 Quote Link to comment
Aqua Splendor Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Uuuuhhh, can we extend the contest? I still need to put some corals in LOL, I'm so late lol. Crazy year indeed, this project have been affected a lot by different event. At start: Wanted to make a SPS dominant tank with a specific goby, little you know, turn into softy with shrimps and wheeleri goby. Is there something on 31 January to gather all the active members of the contest and make some sort of final display before voting? Like anything to filter active and inactive participants. Would love to see a post/thread with all the participants left with photos (like 5 max or something) so people can easily judge, easily scroll and watch all the aquariums made during this contest. @Christopher Marks Quote Link to comment
Tamberav Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 I can’t believe mine is still running... I usually never make it to the end of these or even close. 6 2 Quote Link to comment
A.m.P Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Lydia has yet to figure out (read, put on enough weight) how to push or flip her tank over, so I'm somehow still around too. Y'alls photography is way too nice though. 3 Quote Link to comment
Lingwendil Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Life has been hectic. Tank started having issues, I was too swamped at work to pay attention to my entry, and it was summarily dismantled and the stock added to my 40 breeder. 😥 Had some die off over the summer and lost most of my corals due to heat that we couldn't control in our living space. We have now moved into our own house and I will slowly begin stocking the 40. 1 Quote Link to comment
StealthPrix Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 The stupid pandemic kept me from continuing. I didnt even get too officially start my tank :( @Christopher Marks please tell me you have another contest planned 🤞 2 Quote Link to comment
