Nice Fire! I already saw I won't catch up with you biggrin.gif I think three articles in one day is enough no lifing biggrin.gif

I am sorry to tell you this but there was an inflames wiki already...

http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/wiki/index.php/In_Flames

It was not done by me but it was around for a couple of months; you propably did not find it as you have written In flames without a capitol letter on ''Flames''

oooouch, cant be possible - i used also the search button before creating - well, i thought so hm what to do here?
strange, i didnt get kind of error "this page already exists
but the links are - strange enough - 100% identic.
If you make the F of Flames capital letter, you come to the "old" wiki
if you make it small, you come to my one - ever heard of sth like that??
like if i would typ gOogle.com instead of google.com and get to another page Oo
well... anyway, i have no idea what 2 do now:-D - let the admins decide wink.gif

Yeah the wiki is not 100% working and it also will be remodeled sooner or later (quoting our very own Kristopher Dahl)

Well work is steal good mate.

Sorry Fire, rule #9 says:

Articles that duplicate entries already in the Wiki will be disqualified

Which means I have to ignore it sad.gif

I know this is an honest mistake, but the running is tight at the moment so I have to be fair to everyone.

Posted by: fire Jul 3 2008, 03:14 PM

hmpf...
i can understand it - but cant you see it as a kind of improvement at leasT?
cause i did not know (Cause of wiki bug) that there already existed one.. sad.gif
well, hope it wont make me go to 4th position now happy.gif

I do hope that biggrin.gif sorry, being rude tongue.gif

This is prety anoying I think, when I read it I told my dad how sad I thought it was for you.

Good luck, and may the best man win!!

Well here's, the deal - as it stands, without yet taking the 5+ articles into account, that single article is the difference between 3rd and 2nd place for you Fire, (and for Zak, the other way around) ... now that sucks for you, but it would suck worse for Zak if I allowed it and you got second place despite a minor rule infraction. Sticking to the rules rigidly is not always so important, but they are here exactly for situations like this, and this is the only fair way to handle it, I am sorry sad.gif .

Kaz, you are now in 4th anyway so it doesn't make any difference to you!

Posted by: fire Jul 4 2008, 01:12 PM

okay, as its only 2nd / 3rd place its not that bad for me (both great prices!! - my first "real" and new pedal hehe), only as it had switched me to the 4th place, i'd have been annoyed
but, rule is rule, so its okay smile.gif

cheers

Posted by: Andrew Cockburn Jul 5 2008, 01:49 PM

its not final yet though, I am doing the 5+ points right now smile.gif

Posted by: fire Jul 5 2008, 03:03 PM

great man!! im really looking forward to the results!!
Do you have the time to finish it still today???

cheers
