Zoa Grow Contest
- Thread starter Munch
- Start date
So here's my dilema, we have different people seeing different things in the same picture.
So I think what I'll do is come up with a few baseline pics, with how they "should" be counted. That way, you don't have to like the rule, just agree to apply it consistently (as best we can). Make sense?
If we can just agree that if we see a skirt 100 on the edge, and a face no matter how small it is, call it a head? Must see both, not one or the other.
I know some people are reading this and thinking we're nutz.... I'm trying to hash this out now in the open so we go into the contest with as clear of a picture as possible.
So for those that don't care, don't worry, we'll hash this out, and make a final decision shortly, and update post 1 with the outcome

How about if somebody is going to get so worked up for a $5 donation and contest that they don't play? Pick one guy to decide and their word if final - no arguments, no whining. It is Munch's thread and he did all of the work, so he can decide as far as I am concerned. It seems like in these types of situations that trying to make everybody happy ends up making nobody happy.
Even though there is little chance of it, if I win, I don't want the money... you can give it to MASC or some other Marine Charity. To me, it is worth the $5 for science and to see the successes of growth under the different tank parameters... so money well spent.

Well stated and agreed. I would be more than willing to create a "stats" logging sheet to get a good perimeters log. I would hope we would all be willing to jot down weekly stats and overall tank conditions and equipment to further our clubs knowledge and understanding.
As far as the rules, I am good with what you came up with since it is fair enough and you cant control exactly how life chooses to spring up. We already winning...
Thanks to Munch (Scott) and Gonzo (Josh) for putting this together and fragging up such a unique order and the other 29 for your involvement.

I'm ok with Andrew being final judge on baby/head. We can argue our position based on the photo provided once the contest ends. Andrew will weigh in for final.
Just follow the guideline: "Baby is considered any closed polyp, or any where you cannot see face and developed skirt in the same photo. You must see skirt and face to be considered a head."
