This REALLY pisses me off, folks. As some of you know, I recently built a website for a competition. I worked my ASS off on this site, folks, and I'm quite proud of it.

During the time the site was being constructed, I was asked by a sponsor of another club I'm in if I wanted to be in the Web Design Team for that club's competition as well. Being allready engaged in the production of my original site, I declined his offer because I had no extra time for it.

Now here's the f**cked up part. The site that I worked my arse off for was shot down at state level by a judge's accusations (FALSE accusations) of plagiarism. We didn't even make the finals.

To make things even worse, I found out today that there was only ONE other Web Design Team at the competiton that I had declined to attend. One FRESHMAN team. This team not only goes on to nationals WITHOUT EVEN COMPETING, but EVERY ONE OF THEM won a $3,000 scholarship.

:goddammit:

Oh my gosh... That bites... Sorry, Asha'man Sidivin... Argh.

That sucks... :blink: so unfair...

Wtf? Sounds like it was rigged.

did they tell you who they accused you of plagiarizing?

I of course think thats bullshit.....I'm sorry.

That just bites.

*ponders the use of the balefire-shotgun* don't worry, they will learn their lesson *hunts down the darkfriend judges*

I wish I could channel when I felt like it... then I could help... <_<

they got you on plagiarism...?

You should seriously look into that, check all your info. If you feel it was a false accusation, and can back up your argument with hard facts that nothing was plagiarized, can you change the outcome?
