i really dont give a fuckk if its only 3 clips but ive been screwed over the past 2 weeks for COTW. i actually go out and make a video and i post it by the deadline which is saturday night. and it didnt even get posted in the mod forum. so yea i was like ehhh next week. so this week i post it again with a even better clip for the ender and i set it to private so if i didnt win i could save the footy. then matts like oh you need to take the private off. so i did and then i hear from a friend it didnt even get posted again. and to top all this off like always COTW and POTW almost never get posted untill sunday night. which is bull shitt. they should be posted every morning.


SO now that my COTW rant is done here is my COTW entry that didnt get entered both times.

Yes, I realize that your entry was received on saturday technically. But, if like you said, you want the COTW god to come every sunday morning and grace you with it's presence, how is it supposed to get voted on literally overnight? I post the threads in the morning on Saturday (usually) and they get voted on all Saturday and usually part of Sunday too.

First entry I received, notice the time received. 10:15PM. That was wayy after I posted the thread for them to get voted on, that wouldn't be fair for you or anyone if it didn't get the same time to be voted on, admins/mods all on SR at different times and such. So I just save it for the next week. Fast forward to this week when I go to enter it:

Not there. So I didn't really think anything of it because I saw you had another entry... and since only one entry was allowed per week I figured you had deleted the old one and replaced it with better clips or something.

You did it, again, at night. The thread to vote on them had been out for almost 12 hours already for that week. No, Josh Young, I'm not out to get you. I think you're a sick rider and I really wished you could have come to Dylan's house this past weekend to session with us. When you sent that last e-mail telling me it was un-passworded I was 1 hour into my 4 hour drive home from Columbus.

And sorry now, that I'm going to be pretty close to late for work, because I felt the need to make sure you weren't pissed at me for stuff that just turned out not the way you wanted it to or whatever. I would've proofread this to make sure everything is legit but I have no time, and I know much to your dismay, I'll have to post POTW/COTW after I get out of work, at 9PM, Eastern Standard Time. So, keep your eyes open at right around 9:30-9:45 and they will be posted. Next week is all you bro, just get it in and make sure I can post it to be voted on. I wouldn't have went through all the trouble of doing the screenshots and stuff if I didn't think you deserved a shot at winning.

Not sure what the drama deal is in here. But those two videos were both bad ass. Which is basically all I cared about. Boss.
