Monthly Competition
-
I just have a simple question regarding eligible articles for the competition: The rules say that "To be eligible articles must be new ..." So, does that mean that if I write an article, lets say on September 6, and then I edit it on September 11, that my article is no longer qualified for the competition because it is updated and no longer marked as new? I used to think that it didn't matter as long as it was new that month, but after looking at the articles up for the prize in August, none of them show an updated date. Thanks, Tony
It's only when you look at an ant through a magnifying glass on a sunny day that you realise how often they burst into flames.

It's still new for September, so it's in the running.

Can we have some other interesting types competitions, other than the monthly competitions, as we used to have in the good old days? Either oriented on a specific topic or some other different innovative idea for fun.
Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it. -Brian Kernighan

That .NET screen saver contest was fun :-)
