well i havent read anything past this post because i just wanted to point out i never accused anyone of cheating in the competition and i know derek wasnt ripping anyone off and is a good honest trader. i was a part of his free trade thread for a long time. my point was if i was going to join the comp. I would of FELT like i was giving my card away because I DONT have such an established reputation as Derek(and lets be honest no one really does) and that by no fault of his own or any other well established member they would have an advantage over those that arent as well known or been around as much. Im sorry the whole thing has been blown out of proportion and you feel you need to leave . I see you on some other sites and im sure ill continue to see you around. and im still confused as to why its gone this far?

I know you didn't. Burmalocity tried to play off your post but that isn't at all what you said. Your post, simply put, said some of us had better following which was a possible advantage. I fully agree and while I didn't realize it before it does out some of us at an advantage. However that doesn't come into play for me in round two cause I was stepping aside to simply run it. I never ever thought you were accusing me at all man, no worries.
