Were You 2nd or 3rd In A Competition - Who Knows?
Anonymous
Second or third? That is the question. And the answer is...wait for it - neither, because you are a runner up. Deep underground poetry refuses to recognise the correct order of merit here. Ok, it's only a small point & not exactly life or death but for the person hosting a competition, surely it is nice for him/her to be able to show the entrants the correct order in which they chose their runners up.
Or is it just me?

I would prefer it if deep underground could get their act together though & allow the host to determine the 2nd & third placings for themselves, rather than this weird random way DUP have of organising runner up spots. It did spoil my 1st competition experience somewhat when I saw that who I chose as runners up, did not fit the order I placed them in on the actual podium illustration. Thank you for your interest in this discussion, Kate.

There was nothing she could do Kate as I asked her already, lol. This forum is my way of putting some pressure on the webmistress to move towards a solution on this issue.
And with the help of member support, I may be able to push this one through.

Interesting to note that you have already asked and was informed that nothing could be done. Anyway,I have done a lot of competition here since I joined but this have never bothered me, as I look at it anti clockwise...3rd 2nd and 1st to the top.

Thank you Grace but even that's not right though is it, as sometimes DUP does arrange the 2nd & 3rd spots correctly as the host intended. I just don't like the randomness of these placings. I feel like DUP is taking the decision away from its members.

I wonder about that randomness. Mine goes like that, just checked my latest comp. I am sure taking away decisions from members was not the purpose at all.
