This discussion is pretty distasteful. The
HotM rules were clear from the beginning. It's pretty undignified to complain about the rules after the fact when they didn't go your way.
Look, you have the
seventh most installed hack in the history of this site. That's a huge accomplishment in itself. I bring this up because it ought to be obvious to anyone who's worth a dang that your hack is a useful, popular hack. You don't need the
HotM to validate your feelings on this matter. By complaining, you just make it easy for people to perceive you in a negative light.
And by the way, this is not a flame -- merely a discussion.
