<p>[QUOTE=&quot;IdesOfMarch01, post: 1774951, member: 39084&quot;]The game that I created and proposed is a fantasy game, conceptually similar to fantasy sports games such as football fantasy leagues. Whatever contest is described above might be acceptable to the moderators but it isn&#039;t remotely similar to the concept I proposed, and I seriously doubt it would garner nearly the interest that my concept did.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Personally, I have learned at least as much from browsing online and actual auction catalogs catalogs, reading online and actual descriptions of coins, and doing research based on what I&#039;ve learned, as I have from reading the dozens of books I own, and informational websites I&#039;ve visited. The idea that the proposed fantasy game won&#039;t stimulate learning about ancient coins is just an assertion and has no basis in fact and reality.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The implication that there is some &quot;personal gain... except for exposure&quot; for me from proposing the fantasy game is so bizarre that I don&#039;t even understand it, and thus can&#039;t rationally respond to it. I will remain forever puzzled by what, exactly, is meant by this.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This is indeed what the whole issue reduces to: the forum dictators have spoken, they don&#039;t like my fantasy game concept, and whatever reason they give for deleting it -- bogus or not -- is irrelevant. It&#039;s just not going to happen.&nbsp; As we&#039;ve all experienced on the playground, when someone says &quot;it&#039;s my ball and if you don&#039;t want to play by my rules I won&#039;t let you play at all&quot; you better believe they mean it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
