I'm stuck at a task now for _months_ (but because of no time for it) and
really hope the challenge, little, to continue. That's because patience
has been key for previous tasks, and I love to not-fear that the
challenge may go away. Have patience and take time to enjoy every task!

It's insanely awesome of him / the people to run the callenge and it
sucks that they, now, need to go after people who don't follow the
rules. Nobody is forced to take the challenge.

The challenge is for _free_ (!) and you can _really_ get a lot out of
it, if you simply follow the rules and respect what you have in front of
you, like a normal grown-up. That's what I think when I read about
people trying to ask and cheat anytime, not you in particular.

Depending on how far you have come, I'm sorry you can't continue. Don't
try to trick anybody. _If_ this was a one-time-thing you regret and you
honestly and quietly want to continue, maybe, ask one last time, give
reasons. Starting over "anonymously" somehow wouldnt really make you
happy, be honest. And little would find out anyways.

I know I would hate to be removed, that's motivation enough to stick to
my kerneltree and search basic stuff ;)

I hope little has fun and finds ways to reduce his own challenge-related
workload while being able to keep the challenge alive.

thanks,
