I would encourage everyone on the board to provide input on this matter. We hate to change things after already launching, but the goal is to reward you people posting great TRs (and a great TR can really work on so many different angles...it really doesn't have to be some super committing climb in an exotic location...it can be amusing, feature great photographs, great writing, there are so many ways for a TR to be great). Lets find a way that best benefits us all! We were also hoping this contest would illuminate those lost TR gems, and I can tell you that to a certain extent it has succeeded in that regard. Anyway, please comment if you have better ideas! We are looking for positive ways to keep the TRs coming in and the quality up (as well as highlighting past examples of TRs that you love).

No, only dumbasses are dumbasses. Plenty of people with alternate viewpoints to mine that are extremely intelligent. People who think things are plain and simple are quite usually dumbasses though.

Sorry, but Janet is a dumb ass. As is anyone that has respect for Palin.

While looking back through the old TRs, if you note any TRs that are not indexed or that have the images with broken links (so they don't show up) please note them in this thread. We'll work to get them fixed/indexed/whatever....

I'm not sure which I'm voting for but I'm going to put my ideas here: RIP Joe.

Man this is tough. I just found a really killer photo of this fat cat. No place to put it.

I know its April Fools and all, but Jon and I decided this would be the right day to end Spray. There has just been too many broken hearts and name calling, so we've turned off those forums. Thanks for understanding.

I wish someone would have done a fly over in a heli and video'd my free solo of Das Toof though. -

"out of control knucklehead"...those are not the words that come to mind when i watch that (I think maybe Polishbob posted a higher rez version of this video a couple months ago?). Definitely beyond any limits I have had or will ever. People do amazing things and take incredible risks, I don't think that makes them knuckleheads. -
Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna let a chance to tell you that I don't like sport climbing slip by. never gonna give! never gonna give!
