Baked Alaskan: when you came to this site and decided to become a member, why did you do that ?
because of the games i guess ?

what has changed about that since then ? nothing i hope ? the games are still there, the site is still there.

there is just something extra which doesnt cost you anything. you can keep using the site exactly as you were used to.
to use the extra feature (action points) an different setting is needed.

now its up to every player to decide if they would rather allow the ads to be able to use this extra feature, or not use the ads and this extra feature but continue with their membership as they did before

the action point contest of last month was mainly about moves being made, the action point contest of this month is mainly about finding and using the secret action

if you dont want the ads, then you wont be able to use the extra (for which you dont pay either), if you dont mind the ads or think the contest if more important (;)) then you can try to find the secret action, or maybe even outdo the secret action by moves alone.

summary:
it doesnt disadvantage anyone who doesnt want to take part in the contest.
it doesnt cost anything, its just a free gesture of fencer (for which in return you are helping him testing the site ;))

so please be nice for another and happy for whatever extras you are getting for no extra charge :)
