  • Lowgain, on 07/14/2008, -0/+5The theme is up again, I have no idea what the CBC is doing!
  • Lowgain, on 07/14/2008, -0/+6I have received the following email:

    Hi Logan,

    Apologies for your submission being down over the weekend. It was taken
    down by a 3rd party moderator who had not consulted with any of us at
    CBC who are working on the contest. We have clarified our moderation
    guidelines with them and you should expect no further trouble with your
    most excellent submission.

    We are back!

    I have never felt more patriotic in my life.
