Thank you for bringing this issue to my attention @GazetaBitcoin.
No worry, Rick! In fact, to be sincere, paid2 made the initial remark about this issue... It crossed my mind too, but he mentioned it faster than me (he is younger and faster, heh...
-- also having bought his second palace with btc too, but that's irrelevant now lol)Overall I tend to agree with GazetaBitcoin perspective (considering that the contest doesn't have a rule for this scenario but I am open to discussion):
But since this is a forum where free speech is encouraged as much as it is possible, this involves also that people can vote for him and his pie. Receiving votes may look abnormal or immoral but, since no contest rules are broken, I don't think there is anything which can be done.
While I agree with LV general idea, it's also true that, strictly regarding this contest, there really is no rule preventing PytagoraZ from being eligible. This, of course, is not pointing the finger at you, but an observation... We can only learn from such incidents and better the set of rules in time. Same happened with BCA during years and also with other similar events. It's really impossible to anticipate everything what can happen the future, what a particular user may do or try... so we can only adapt to the situation.
