@Chow_13, interesting. that's kinda weird as once anyone responds to a question, the author can not delete it or edit it, its "locked". So this is allowing a person answering any questions the ability to reopen them, and not the author. Definitely a bug that needs to be fixed. I see users points fall for no other reason sometimes as well. So when that happens it does not zero individuals out. Should be the same process I would feel. I know when hiding diaries it removes them from the score board but will add them back on when they are unhidden. This could be used as a trolling tool, asking questions all at once then hiding the diary and end of contest hit unhide... "magic" someone is top of ranks. This could be combined with a slew of older questions asked throughout multiple months and accounts to add a stealth effect to it, a simple investigation would not find it right away but if someone points where all from questions dated older then a month it would be sus. They could add a side rule that it's only collection points on questions asked around the monthly period of the contests as well. Bang fixed that exploit lol. This is all good to know if it happens again, we now have an answer. Funny how we are trouble shooting this and not the people who are paid to run this site lol. Should send you a gift card for McDonald's :D

@CanarianGrow92, @Hashy, This is what I found on the dark web, it was in a folder called gotm hacks on a 4chan site. https://ibb.co/FWWGFYT Maybe we are dealing with a next level Qanon insurrection into the freedom of the internet itself!?!?! I can feel my rights being violated...... its wrong, its so WRONG! Why did JOE BIDEN let this happen, how did he alone in his short tenure allow this to fully manifest and happen to all of us! FUCK HIM! Fuck me..... Fuck me in the ass! Fuck! Me! In! The! Assssss!!!!! No Homo - It's the only things that feels right, Don't tell my wife, I have kids, fuck Joe Biden! Fuck Him In The ASSS!!!!! Save Us President Trump!

@Hashy, Yeah... I know they can't ship/sell seeds directly to the US for some reason... I was surprised they hadn't enclosed them with the merchandise but hey - I'm not complaining!! (At least not any more!) Popped 3 seeds into a glass of water last night and the damned things were ready to be planted today!! I'm psyched. What seeds did you choose? I got some "normal" strains (but strains I've not grown yet) - Sour Diesel and Bruce Banner... but then I also got two other strains - Wedding Cheesecake (I liked the looks of it - LOL!) and Trainwreck... got that one just for the name alone! LMAO!!! I don't have any more room out on my deck and I shouldn't have popped the three that I did (Wedding Cheesecake) but I figured what the hell... it's summer and a super time to grow... but I now have 12 plants out there and so I'm about 6 over the number I'm allowed to grow here... I'm not particularly concerned... nobody really cares here any more! 😊 And they've got bigger fish to fry.

@GrowingGrannie, I got mine for finishing 2nd in mays contest last week. So yours have took about a month longer. But its easier to send seeds to the UK, mine turn up with the merchandise.

@GrowingGrannie, yeah it's defo 15 now. They said in the email the prize was advertised wrong. Which is now similar prizes to what seedsman offer, I would imagine if any other breeders sponsor the comps they will have to give similar prizes, 15 seeds, trays, stickers, etc.

@Hashy, But read the description of this month's prizes... And I got 1st in April with FB... and I got 4x3 (which I'm STILL waiting on - LOL! Coming from the Czech Republic takes time!)... But no matter... if it's now a total of 15 seeds, that's great!

@Growdiaries. I have found the bug that happened last month. I was at 5 points. Then I went to an answer that I was selected for and clicked on "Remove". This removed my answer, put the question back into a "Unanswered" state and cleared all of my points. The question that I was selected for and removed my "selected" answer from was growdiaries.com/grow-questions/48646-germination-to-vegetation Not interested in getting the points back. But last months winner got screwed over by this bug. @crimsonecho and deserves the win. To replicate( Have grower B with many points from many growers ) Grower A - Ask a question Grower B - Answer the question Grower A -Select Grower B's solution Grower B - Delete the answer that grower A selected. Now Grower B will Have zero points even though they only removed the single answer.

@m0use, I cant say for sure, but I think it went along the lines of troll spammed questions, He answered one of them and got selected. He noticed the question spamming and didn't want the point as it was an obvious troll and removed his answer. As for me, I did it as a test. I agree though once an answer is selected the whole thing should be locked. They fixed the ability to switch "Selected" answers. But all the answers are still removable.

@Chow_13, good eye! I am curious, why delete after it was selected? Maybe a troll account spamming questions and wanted to not associate with it?

There's not a lot going on in this contest anymore. Some catty replies in the grow questions by some users who are in a bitch plus the two or so trolls lingering in the sidelines but its just not what it used to be. The high score is only in the 20's and that's still almost a double point lead on 2nd and 3rd, to add to that, 2nd and 3rd may pull out before contest is done or one maybe removed as they won last month. Then you got 4th place, they typically don't not take prizes and remove themselves followed up by 5th, who is a sus account, winning all their points in a short period of time after the question is asked when no one else has responded to it, meanwhile all the other questions have a few replies to them from multiple users before an answer is selected. Shit month for GOTM, maybe its just because its summer? IDK O well, Congrats to all the cunts in the lead and the dick bags following up behind, "Your the real hero" πŸ˜†
