    I agree with what your saying, personally I feel that he may have had an advantage and if I was judging them then I would have made sure that all entries had a fair chance and considered that some people entered when the furniture used in another entry was unavailable, when this furniture is the main competitions theme.

    I think that maybe the competition could have been extended and I disagree that it would be a never ended extension, it wouldnt! It's not like we get new mode furniture every week because we don't.

    As for limiting furniture, that's an interesting idea. However, you can enter from different hotels as stated in the competition thread and some hotels may have had other furniture first, so that does not seem like the best solution in my opinion.

    When it comes to allowing people to re-submit, I disagree. Someone might enter first, see the second entry and then decide to re-submit with some of the designs/ideas used in the second entry. This therefore does not seem to me like a good idea

    I think the competion was good but it just so happened that it was based around furniture which had just come out and was awaiting further additions, which then benefited the later entries. In future, you can begin the competition when all furniture is released or base it on an already released range.

    I think a good idea for future room competitions held by the forum department, would simply be to post the competition on for example the 1st December and then only open the thread for entries on the 10th December and close it on the 11th December. This gives everyone a fair chance in my opinion as well as helping to prevent copying, although this was not really an issu anyway.

    I agree now that maybe it should have been extended, but I was under the impression that most knew that new furni was coming out as it had been posted in numerous threads beforehand.

    I like the idea that entries should be PM-based though, I'll give that a go next time

    I did know when I entered that new furniture would be out but I didn't know how long it would take which is what the identified problem seems to be.

    I disagree with PMing entries for comps where there isn't a set answer. I like to know who I was competing against. If they were PMd, Id personally like all the entries to be posted at the end so we can see who entered and what they entered

    Luke, that's an interesting point. I do agree that all entries should be shown at the end, that way no one gets put off beforehand, and also, noone can say that it was a biased competition.

    They knew, new furniture was coming but no one knew when.
