King, it is a shame that you didn't win the competition but I feel, as you have so beautifully put, won something else. Whether or not QI had some underhanded dealings in this competition it takes courage to speak out as you have done. Happy new year and all the best going forward, your financial situation is something you can and will change :)
(Solved) Qidian, there is a world called 'ETHICS.'
I don't know anything about this comp but a rule if thumb is corporations are evil and they want your money #conspiracy
For real though, it's a shame a reader couldn't win. Imo it was a bad move to allow tl to participate. It's like if a radio show had a competition and one of the hosts won.
WAKE UP SHEEPLE
It's quite a shame that the sponsored 'winner' by the Snowman Clan didn't win... But at least you're still a part of us now because of it! So what would you like your snowman to have? Look at ucoqid's (squiddy) snowman! It's so cute:
http://prntscr.com/hu5rsc (SEE THAT? oml... so cute!) Come onto the Discord server again so we can make it together! :3
I don't know everything about the competition and whether there were under-handed transactions and whatnot, so I can't really comment on that, but there is at least one thing that's true. You made new friends and joined the Snowman Clan (the best clan)! It's as @Cilliez said!
Neverfire7 looks like to me you start to accept your snowman avatar even though you keep complaint. adorable guy.
Cilliez very cute indeed.
KingBiBiK its ucoqid not ucoqiud 
no matter how the facts really is, at least you told us hows your feeling. don't worry about it. i joined the mess when it nearly at the end, so i have not an opinion. come to clan channel more often.
I always found that clan name . . . strange.
Could it be that this is your clan-uniform?
And your favorite movie is "The Snowman" a horror-thriller?
The reasoning for the name is because I was singing the "Do you wanna build a snowman?" But instead said "Do you wanna build a (snowman) Clan?" And some random dude picked up on "Snowman Clan" he was like "Snowman clan?" And then everyone started using it as well. And I'm not gonna be the bearer of bad news and be like "No... not allowed!" So it became the Snowman Clan....
But I love the picture lol! And the movie, I've never watched it but we may have to give it a shot :D xD
OOOOO Clan uniform... I should design something... Like a white robe or something, that would be so cool!
NineNeatherBird we are the chibi versions, i guess?
N0xiety Well, it's one of many reasons why there are so many novel about shamelessness in qidian, some type of Brainwashing i guess -
Cilliez uuh, i need to join soon, can i?
Well in fact all the companies in the world do like this. Even apple slow down their old phones, don't they?
CKtalon Tbh it does seem unfair to me that translators can win as more people will vote for them if they read their translations.
It doesn't even need to be intentionally rigged, though as long as he didn't post a chapter note asking for votes i'm fine with the end result as nobody broke rules, but like you said hopefully next time there's an exclusion of translators/editors.

I still look stupid...
NineNeatherBird I always found that clan name . . . strange.
Same... I always wonder why we couldn't have called ourselves something cooler...
Active_Reader uuh, i need to join soon, can i?
Mute They didn't really think it through as they were in a rush to begin the competition (considering the VISA issues) and by the time they realized that it might be unfair, it was a little too late. Meh did not seem like he would win either. If you see the last 24 hours thread, Meh was ranked third with quite a sizable gap from @KingBiBiK

CKtalon Yes, I know you said that in a joking way like the boss saying them to enter the competition to get a better deal or something. Sorry to mention you in this awkward situation. I just used it to be a little sarcastic.
I have immense respect for you and as one of the translators who responds all the time you are like a brother to us. I hope I did not bring you trouble.
Now let me clarify the issue. Since I wrote a long post it is easy to miss and misunderstand things.
(The assumptions are just assumptions and even I do not believe them)
I DO NOT HAVE an issue with translators competing.
I DO NOT HAVE an issue with Meh winning.
The problem is...
The thing that triggered me is the final result announcement that states the original time while giving the results of a different time. (Along with those comments).
That's it. as simple as that.
Search up our clan thread, if you send at least one reply on there, then you're good.
And Nevie Neverfire7 gave you the discord link for the clan.
But if you don't wanna join on Discord then no worries, you can be a part of clan in the thread as well~

mud7 Don't worry. It was just sarcasm.
@CKtalon I should not have mentioned you. Sorry about that. I am not sure it is you who said that joke. Maybe its someone else. Your name just came to my mind when I was typing this. It took me a while to type everything up and I missed the time to edit it off.
