The way you are dealing with this matter is not right.(Or is very unclear) Firstly, you change the rules AFTER the Registration date is over, which gives Maldova less time to react (actually -1/2 days ).

Secondly, America also has a similar case but they get no penalty /disqualifiaction

Thirdly, the basis on which Maldova's member got disqualified / removed from Scratch is also unclear.

Yet you decided to CARRY ON WITH YOUR WORK.

I dont think it is justified, considering the fact that Maldova got disqualified ONLY because of defending their team member and Opposing the unclear picture of the circumstances (even if in a hyper way).

TO add to all this, you are editing posts silently, which everyone will agree is UNFAIR and wrong

illusionist - This quote is from Team Maldova wrote:

Disrespecting moderators is an important part of "Scratch Code" (ToU), though not directly stated. The penalty list states that any violation of the ToU will lead to a disqualification. If a member is banned, that member no longer has access to the Scratch website and is booted from the contest, leaving the team a member short. Undersized team is also a penalty. Disrespecting these rules, especially in such a rude manner to the face of a moderator, is NOT acceptable. Because of the actions of this team, you may no longer participate in the contest.

Firstly, the disrespect was directly a result of alleged unfairity (Does this word exist) and secondly, the fact that you are a Moderator does not make you IMMUNE TO CRITICISM FOR PROBLEMS IN CONDUCTING THE OLYMPICS.

And that phrase in bold was added after the registration date. CAN YOU IMAGINE THE ORGANISERS OF THE REAL OLYMPICS MAKING RULES 2 DAYS BEFORE THE TOURNAMENT ?

The other part in bold was also added AFTER the registration date.

You should not forget that the ORGANISER of this event and not the MODERATOR is coming under fire for unfairity. Then how did Maldova get disqualified.

P.S. Maldova were even ready to replace the member under question by another member, if this issue were proved to be showing that they ought to be disqualified.

Hence Maldova was also not liable for disqualification under the grounds of UNDERSIZED TEAM

This guy knows how to argue. Tonkie, learn some stuff from him.

I still have yet to see how I am such a horrid arguer. I don't see you doing much more than:"It's okay......I mean, for someone your age. But the eyes are off. That is all."

The scale of this argument is quite sad.

All you do is deny the other person and provide half baked facts. That could be part of the problem.

She gives half of a fat because the other part is contradictory to her arguement.
