Actually folks, I thought it over and no offense to anyone, but I'd like to drop out of this. I dislike this rule a lot, and for some stupid reason, this Internet discussion over a competition that only exists so we could have fun makes me see red, and that's not a good sign. And since it's all about having fun, well, I'm not having fun. I'm sorry for delaying this round.
I've sent a PM to Puppies saying I'm out.
Good luck to everyone participating, I'll be following as I'm curious what you've got up your sleeves.
