@Mrs_Seabiscuit

I'm sorry but I've deemed your entry to be invalid as I wouldn't class this as a wheat beer.

If am wrong on this, please feel free to point out why. Oh and this also applies to anyone, cheers.


EDIT: Not as much wheat as Weetabix, but it's in there

 

[DirtyJester]

Well the round is W wheat so to me thats wheat unless of course you meant wit beer but the round was wheat. The amount of problems with clarification in this comp im seriously considering not jointing next one I am fuming

While I wouldn't call it a wheat beer no, it wasn't very specific what was wanted for this round, so I would say yes to Carling if it includes it. While I am biased here, I think the round only asked for wheat, not that it was a weiss or wit. http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showpost.php?p=22411796&postcount=2 W- Wheat, which is MrsS's beer.

One of the biggest turn outs in a long while, and sadly only one entry wasn't really in keeping with every other entry.

Even your own entry seabiscuit was clearly a 'wheat beer'. Yes I can also fully understand, admire and yes respect you defending Mrs_Seabiscuit but hand on your heart I don't honestly think you would have accepted Carling.

Now once again, back to the rules, guidelines and what is meant. If in doubt then ask, plenty of people do this all the time in the main thread, I mean what's to say it was supposed to have 'wheat' on the label even?

Now if everything is seriously going to require this much clarification, we're going to be doing some serious amount of talking before the next competition. For something that remember, is firstly about fun and trying new beers.... hearing the same old complaint isn't much fun and leaves everyone a bit hungover.

I'm still leaving this open, if others feel I've missed something please feel free to shout out. Everyone here is first and foremost friends and that's how this competition is run and will continue to run while I have anything to do with it.

Oh and excuse my ramblings and any mistakes, I'm only awake.

 

[DirtyJester]

You what DJ forget it your rule said wheat and it has wheat in it im fuming the rules keep changing

What rule changed?

Oh and speaking of which, only yesterday you said this:

Yes I think it might be easier to change it now. You will get an almighty headache after results have been published.

Once again, you were the only one that took it that 'Wheat' in the beer made it valid.

 

[DirtyJester]

Well you said wheat and by wheat that must be in ingredients, so its in the ingrediets. YES your right DJ before next competion we need to all talk a lot.

Are you still my friend DJ?

Apart from the Fruit round where else has ingredients came into it?

A favourite phrase that has always crept in, within both competitions... 'in the spirit of the thing'.

Don't get me wrong, this is still open (hence no points have been updated) for everyone to have a say and if others think it should be allowed, I have no problem with it.

Now as for still being your friend, I don't think you really need to ask that.

Everyone here is first and foremost friends and that's how this competition is run and will continue to run while I have anything to do with it.

 

[DirtyJester]

So no feedback for anyone else?

Hmmm...

 

[DirtyJester]

so give me my points you meanie

You know what, I will

 

[DirtyJester]

 

[DirtyJester]

Nope ahleckz may I remind you of your own massive outburst. So actually you can't comment.

I was very drunk, and called myself up for that.

You've got your points for an entry that you clearly knew would be controversial, well done. Onto the next round I say.

Wait a minute, you're not beating me are you? If you are, I'll get much grumpier!

I'll remind the pair of you...

[DirtyJester]

Ouch!, that hurt us 2 pointers...

Anyway, back to trying to find the 'Holy Grail' that is the Ye Olde Beer round

More on that in main thread (shortly)

 

[DirtyJester]

^^

I think that's a brewery Gilly has mentioned before.

Three rounds left, and everything to 'play' for...

PLAY: Verb...
'Engage in activity for enjoyment and recreation rather than a serious or practical purpose.'

Sarky sausage DJ

Pasta actually

 

[DirtyJester]

That makes life a bit easier

Trust me, nothing but nothing in this competition is ever easy... nothing.

 

[DirtyJester]

I've given the points, they were added yesterday and if you check page 1 of the main thread it shows ' completed and points awarded ' beside the round for 'W - wheat'.

As far as I'm concerned the matter is finished with, regardless if right or wrong. What is now more important is that everyone reads about 'Y' - Ye Olde.

I think it gets so heated as people put a lot effort and some times spend £3.50 a bottle. For me what the point in trying ho hum

Squid I've resisted all day to reply, but once again this competition has left me no option but to, well enough said...

Spoiler

 

[DirtyJester]

Other rounds have gone to a public vote when there's been controversial entries - with the vote often lasting most of the week. How come that didn't happen this time?

I'm not saying it's a fix, but it's a fix.

Good question and the answer is simple.

I was utterly fed up waiting on a response from people.

Fix no, frustration yes

 

[DirtyJester]

Have yourself a beer pal!

I will later, cheers

Supposed to be a few on there way to me now, via a postman

 

[DirtyJester]

Oh, imagine there'll be some exciting stuff? Is it from Bees of Europe?

lol no mate, it's from a very decent chap on here. They are all local to him, and new to me
