Well maybe we should have changed them for the last challenge.But just to reassure you,even if sometimes a moderator forgets to close the challenge, the photos taken outside the time limit would not be judged. And sometimes something can happen that would prevent a moderator to close it exactly at the right time. But it would not change the rules.As far as for this challenge lasting more than a week, this was a decision taken between moderators since it was summer and the participation to the forum in general seemed at the time to be a little quiet.For the results, the moderator that starts the challenge is responsible for the judging and posting the results. So it can happen that it takes time for him to do so. Don't forget that we all are volunteers and we also have jobs and other occupations. This is not for us a full time thing. So I ask for your forgiveness if things don't happen as fast as you and I would like.So please try to understand that we are all here to enjoy our cameras and photography in general and we are trying our best to have these challenges to give our membership incentives to be more creative only. Thanks for understanding, if you have suggestions on procedures, please feel free to submit them and we'll see what can be done about it.Cheers,Marcel</blockquote>
