Hi Argie Monroy, we have already discussed this and the answer is no we are no longer hosting the monthly contests no one was joining then. So now I have created the job board to replace the contests.

How is it to late you still have 5 months to win? Most likely another month for me to judge and you still get to market during that time. Don’t be so hard on yourself you have plenty of time.
