@m0use, good idea mouse, minimum requirements, punishment for multiple infractions is deletion of hard work and diaries. Easy fix for competent coders. Sadly this site is run by people who seem unable to sort the basic of databases.

LOL the other monthly contests are live and posted for december POTM/DOTM but no more GOTM - grower of the month. Wonder if their finally catching on when trolls win like berrysweethigh they just kill the contest. I hope they remove it and revamp the rules to prevent users who contribute nothing to the platform from even entering. Shame that sack of shit could not be bothered to help anyone else who did not link a diary to their question, within the hour of the contest ending they are AWOL. shocker... No grows on their profile, spamming shit comments for likes, sad day. But it is not cheating its just skezzy and low moral, if anything on brand for GD.... side note, copy and pasting their answer is also not cheating. so if anyone wants to mirror the prick next time they enter if it comes back, have at it. Wish their was a disclamer when posting a question about this contest and questions are forced open for 48hrs so they can get a good reply rate and not just one person. have minimums of entering like needing to have active resent diaries on the account.

@m0use, no more gotm would be awesome. But the cheats would find another way to cheat on something else. I wouldn't be surprised if the cheats don't even grow the seeds they win, probably sell them on the Internet to top up there benefit money of the government.

Think if i were to start shifting my focus to only answering Q with linked diaries, as some are doing. I'd be well up there. Gonna be a hard battle, but, not so bothered also. Can beat ppl who only focus on points & not helping just to help, (well mainly 1 person i mean). This is just my opinion. And I'm sure I'll be basted for saying so.

@Ninjabuds, It'll come pal. At least you're not making fake accounts and adding points to yourself. Stay decent on here. No cheating etc. You'll do well.

@Ninjabuds, Ah, it's rare to have 3-4 growers going for it mate. Usually it's a cake walk. But when you have ppl who solely answer linked Q and bomb them with spam or messages. Practially begging for points. Next month pal..a lot of people such as myself once we win we are locked out for 3 months. So, hopefully you'll have less chance of been out.

This months contest has more seeds in it then last months. Nice for the winner in the top 3 end of month. Last month: 5x 3pack = 15 seeds + 2 testers [rolling papers, stickers, pins] This month: 4x 5pack = 20 seeds + 3 testers [rolling papers, pins] It says total 20 seeds but its really 23 with the testers for this month.

@Lerome, yea its a shame how little these contests are organized. GD takes their sweet fucking time finalizing anything and they know its happen, on the monthly basis repeating; indefinitely... but still take forever to do it. The first ever GOTM win I had it took 6 months to get seeds in hand. it was a fucking nightmare. and the cunts of another contest lost out info and took 3 months to reach out, and when they fucked up the mailing address they said o well and did not try and resend it. It does not make sense why it takes them so much time to close a contest and then again release the winners to the hosts. When I won seeds mafia, they shipped it out and it arrived before the countdown even finished. so some hosts do their own thing and others wait forever. nothing adds up, the bigger issues have to be from the top down and that points at GD as a whole and we all know how they operate.

@m0use, Both of those are very good compared to what i have won from the August 2024 contest sponsored by Walipini seeds. First of all it was a struggle to contact them, when they finally replied it took them almost 2 months from the time ive reached out to them (beginning of september) until the seeds finally arrived on 26th of October. All of this stress and writing back and forth for days and days just to receive a single 5 pack from them in the end. Pretty disappointing experience for all the time and effort ive invested in supporting people and winning a contest if you ask me

@LSchnabel, Lol, can't trust the 4x 5-pack logic... I've won one of these a couple years ago where they wrote the wrong thing, semantically. They wrote the packs and quantity backward based on what was sent, and then told me I was wrong about it even though it was written in plain English. Can't make that shit up. Whether they tried to gaslight or simply poor reading/writing skills i am not sure.

@MrSour420, people like that should be disqualified from this contest. Anyway we all know who answers questions to genuinely help and those who only do it for prizes.

growdiaries.com/grow-questions/79799-flushing-time This is a great example of why you should leave a question open for 24-48hrs so dumb broscience like this does not get spread around and selected as a solution giving it credibility.

@001100010010011110, is it better then human shit? cuz like If pee is "ok" shit should be too. why buy fertilizer from "Big Fert" when you make your own. This is the thing they don't want you to know about. Paying thousands of dollars for their products vs free from home. If you can't wait just go to the mall and ask em not to flush. You'd be surprised by how many want to know who's shit was the biggest.

@Ninjabuds, If you are equal on points with someone. It then goes by the points you have overall. So, they do count. But not for actually points. + if you feel u can help. And the info is there. Just help fgs. I don't even check if a diary is linked. If diaries are there or basic grow info. Generally it's much easier to give an educated guess.

@m0use, If you are equal on points. The unlinked diaries are added. As you said. Berry only answers points. I answer most questions, once they have a diary 90% of the time I look I respond. Pity they don't add their diary, haha. But, it's not all about the points. As you, and a good few others like myself answer if we can see a diary, linked or not. Ye, ive learned with GD never count a win until you get an award. Shit once I got 1st and it was then taken away. Nearly sure something similar happened to you.

@Ninjabuds, yes that’s correct only questions tied to diaries count towards the contest.

@AsNoriu, that is 4 months my man. I promise I know how to count. :P hahaha This site is stupid and hardly anything works, I don't put any effort into anything here anymore, so thanks for trying to help, but I understood what you said the 1st time and it doesn't match what the text says...but that is no surprise. If anything here worked properly, then I'd be shocked.

@AsNoriu, The wording is definitely wrong. Once in 4 months would be correct. 1 month win, 3 months off minimal. The real question is what was their original intention? Was it 1 in 3 months and they just enforced it wrong for 5+ years or is the wording wrong? Bwahaha, it really could be either given history of GD.

@Shinsimilla, you won in August. September, October and November is your gardening time, you cant win for 3 month, all is good on this point. @Tgriner420 for second day in a row they have loads of updates, so sometimes it doesn't load page for me at all.
