OF COURSE I spent last night making significant progress on SPACE CAADET only to check this afternoon, remembering the noon PST deadline correctly and the day on which it occurred wrongly. I could've sworn it was today, not yesterday >_<

Oh well. I never win anything like this anyways... not a whine, nor a complaint nor a "woe is me" moan, just a simple, observant fact of my life as it is, and the goings-on within.

This seems an appropriate graphic for the occasion...

Well, I hope whoever *does* win the contest enjoys the prize, and I will gladly cheer them on for that accomplishment and for the (we hope) bigger, better things they use that $500 of parts for.

Best to everyone else who participated. We all did our best, I'm sure... I know I did! A pity it wasn't enough in my case, I'm sure -- but at least I'm well aware of it, and well prepared by previous similar experiences to deal with it.

I'll put up another log late tonight with whatever progress I make later today, along with last night's work as well, since the timing doesn't actually matter after all.
