Re: Black and White Spider Award
Wow, that is a serious matter. They still have her name posted as a judge so apparently NG's letter had no impact. I wonder how many judges on the list are actually participating?

If they are still bringing in money, then they will probably keep the names up until a lawsuit is filed.

Wow, no disrespect to the OP.

They have some big names attached as jurors. If one of those names has no clue what the contest is, I wonder if the rest do.

Them sending you that email tells me all I need to know. Avoid getting caught in their web.

It's a total scam. I thought everyone knew that, but, uhhhh, I guess not. Everyone gets a "merit" award. Or, maybe they have a computer program picks out every 1 in 10 entries for rejection to give an illusion of selectivity.
If you MUST have the shallow validation of a piece of paper telling you you are a "winner," try only submitting to contests that are sponsored by registered non-profits.
