This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

My issue with 24h of Lemons is that everyone seems to just ignore the $500 cap and just take the penalties at the end, so it all evens out. Anyone who does try to limit themselves to $500 would be competing against people who didn’t, and might lose even if they didn’t take any penalties.

That is another way to cheap, if the cost of getting caught is less than the gains from winning you just get caught.
