Please don't be offended. This is all in good fun. We laugh with each other, not at each other.

I have a lot going on personally and was trying to have something to distract my mind from what's going on and was ridiculed because I missed part of the rules for the contest.

I'm sorry for your stress. I hope everything works out well for you.
