Posting at 20:38. which is less than 24 hours after the picture (20:53) was posted.... Perhaps JaunduicedEye should look at the time and the rules before passing judgement. Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

As has been pointed out to me rather sarcastically in a PM I jumped the gun on judging by one hour. Since it had been 19 hours since the last eligible posted caption I gathered that interest had waned. If anyone has anything to add I will gladly rejudge the entries. Sorry if anyone was terribly offended by the wanton breaking of the rules..... "Sour Grapes make a bitter Whine." <(0)> |

Nothing unusual in a 19 hour gap in postings - it all depends on where/what folks are (and Saturdays are notoriously sparse for captions) - don't forget that the population of SETI@Home is spread round the world, and not all in the USA/Canada set of time zones - hence the 24hrs minimum and minimum of 10 captions, with an upper limit of 48 hours - it lets everyone round the world take part, not just those in one's own time zone.

I trust no one objects to the judgement now being official?........ "Sour Grapes make a bitter Whine." <(0)> |

Let the judgement stand. I'm listening to The Scorpions in my living room. It's a bit late now to look for another pic, I will post something on Sunday. I ought to explain that any proficiency in Marvinese results from the abiding impression made by the original radio series. I'm not one of those sad people who are always quoting HHTG! Many thanks to JaundicedEye for this reminder of the eccentric genius of Douglas Adams! |

This table is a kotatsu? You mean there is a heater built into the table under here? |
