# There is a fair bit of scope for the whole swapping people thing
(It doesn't say just swap the materials ebony and ivory, that's the analagy at the start of Frasers text).

I don't think I'm being weird. It's a standard practice for me to read a brief before starting work. If I didn't then a lot of customers would be really fucked off that I'd messed up what they wanted from me.

I'm not saying don't post stuff, I'm just questioning why bother compo'ing some of it when it's just funny it's own right and becoming distracted by the compo thing.

# I wouldn't compare b3ta to a work brief.
It's supposed to be fun. And so what if people get carried away or don't obey the challenge to the letter. I'm guilty of tenuous entries myself but it's all just a bit of fun. Why not moan about people compo-ing text posts? And at the end of the day, anyone who isn't happy can always go and wear the serious hat at worth1000.

# For fucks sake I'm not moaning!
I asked one question, which Johno replied with "haha, i read the challenge properly, and it clearly states people. ah well"

Then you started saying I want everything literal and look forward to finding faults in peoples work.

And who says briefs aren't fun?!
