I thought you previously indicated that only the winners would need to provide their personal information? Which makes perfect sense.

Last time I said "I do", it haunted me for 5 years.

Thanks for the clarification. I have an old Lowlife Auto Blueberry languishing in my drawer I might use up for this. Based on my previous grows with this strain, you won't be needing my personal info

haha i hear ya there bak! we wont get any entries now! alimony bitchesI don't know if I want to now if that's the case
Last time I said "I do", it haunted me for 5 years.
anyone one last time on this thread for perfect clarification, i dont want anyone confused and i just updated the rules to what they will be, please read! thanks!
.solo cup contest rules:
1. ONLY winners need to provide information to receive their prize. Anyone can enter just leave a message on this thread or PM me personally. i will be confirming with everyone who is entering as we get closer to the contest. info will NOT be kept orfiled.
2. Entries should use a Solo (usually red or blue) cup. they are 16oz cups. I have also decided that people may use a different container AS LONG as it says on the container that it is 16oz. you cannot just use anything and say its 16oz, it must be proven to be 16oz if its not a solo. otherwise we would have know way of knowing, but some people cannot find solo cups easily as others can. any container usually the product information will clearly state how many oz's the can is. hope this helps some people
3. You may poke holes in the bottom of your cup but NO other modificationwill be allowed. ONLY HOLES. (do not remove the entire bottom)
4. You may use WHATEVER medium you like. dirt, coco, perlite...whatever youwant it does not matter as long as it doesnt modify the cup in any way. i have been getting the question about hydro alot. Yes, you may grow it hydro, i do not care, as long as the roots are contained within the cup. go for it! be creative
5. seeds or cuttings can be used in this contest, it does not matter, wewill all start roughly the same week. After that start within 3 weeks we willswitch to flower. ( 2-3 week veg time) i understand some people dont clone or cant cloen autos, but im leaving this rule in case someone has no other way of entering besides taking a clone, it IS ok for them to do this. hope it helps someone.
6. 1 solo cup per plant...The roots must be contained within the cup( I.e. No letting rootsgrow from cup to another medium of any sort). Any medium or methods are allowed. every contestant may have 2 entries. so if they want to enter in the outdoor category and the indoor category that would be OK. you can start multiple cups i dont care but by august 4th or so you must choose ONLY 2 to enter and mark them accordingly clearly so we can see.
7. Be creative!
8. Total Flower time will be decided by strain of course. So there will be no end date.
9. You must update on the contest thread at least once every 2 weeks, and there has to be at least a few pictures so members can vote, i would prefer one at seedling stage, one somewhere halfway and then the plant at the end of its lifecycle, you can have as many pics as youd like and we encourage, however not everyone has access to these sort of things so it will not be a strict requirement, but a picture or two WILL be necessary. I have decided as long as we can a decent post update once every 2 weeks and a pic or two for the seedling, veg, mid way and final stage that is all is required. but remember, the more pics you have and info you include will be us as judges and members who vote on you more info to make a better educated decision on your entry. if you dotn include any info about your entry and no good pictures, how would someone vote for you? you could have the most beautiful plant in the world but without pictures how can we see? so dont be scared to post post post! but please make sure its relevant info and pictures! thanks!
10. You may start a few cups if youd like and then when we switch to floweryou must choose only one, the one that will be in the contest, but we will give veg time to decide which one you want to use (if you choose to have more than 1. But one is also just fine)
11. There will be several judges, they will decide the winner of the category contests. There will also be a overall best contest that will be voted upon by all other members. Every member has 1 vote. Whether they are in the contest or not, doensnt matter.
12. if i missed any other rules or regulations they are subject to be put here, and if anyone has a suggestion to make the contest run smoother in general feel free to personally PM me and let me know, i will answer as soon as I see it.
**I just want to make a final remark about privacy. Some people may have issues with giving some totally anon person their address and stuff like that, I understand this. But, since we are giving away prizes to the winners we will NEED somewhere to send the prizes. All of the info will only be seen by my eyes personally and will be destroyed PERSONALLY, BY ME after the contest and prizes have been sent, I respect your privacy just as much as i respect my own, and I am a very private person, I want any who enters to know I take privacy VERY seriously and would NEVER let any info like that fall into the wrong hands, that is a personal promise and guarentee from ME. No one will see your personal info under ANY circumstances, this is one things im very strict with. So please dont let that stop you from entering and having fun. I hope it doesnt, but i dont blame you if it changes your mind. Privacy is a big concern for everyone.

Hah, those of us growing outdoors in a party cup don't stand a chance. I've seen what these guys accomplish with the indoor autos. Kinda takes the pressure off

Ah, I see there is a separate category for indoor/outdoor. Makes sense. I should read more and post less.Hah, those of us growing outdoors in a party cup don't stand a chance. I've seen what these guys accomplish with the indoor autos. Kinda takes the pressure off

i know i been posting a shit ton of stuff but if you look back on my other posts i said you came up with itgood idea ak
i promise! cant not give credit to the best idea maker here! 
Also everyone i just wanted to add one more thing. stew had talked about how it would be counter productive to have a set light sched. for the entries. I have decided along with everyone else basically that they want to have their own choice of light sched. therefore that is what we are doing. You may have whatever lighting you please. if you want to run it 24/0 from beginning to end then thats OK with me. if it does get ridiculous long we may ask to wrap it up at the very end but i do not anticipate this happening, we are here to have fun not penalize and be a stickler on rules
thanks for playing everyone. this is turning out great.~Dankster~420
