Does anyone know why there don't seem to be as many tournaments or clan challenges going on? I don't remember it slowing down this much at this time of year in past years.

Russ needs to turn up the volume, as well as the tone.😕

You're not the first person to comment on this..there appear to be less 'official' tournaments and the general consensus is that the clubs have created a niche for their subscribing members with far more than ever. There are probably half a dozen that are prolific, creating tournies to order, many multiples a day.
The clan challenge is just old hat in my opinion, many of us just don;t feel the need. Certain clans dominate the tables but such a domination appears to be dependent entirely upon their own participation..it's the same lot, time and time again. Again, just my own opinion in that regard.

My primary school English teacher would give you detention for that.

And the unhappy results are fewer poets and a world less nourished.

On the other hand, if about soothing precision more than just syntax...

Words pieced together by the poet can give beauty. And ambiguity can be nice, but why distract with a lack of clarity or a misplaced word without benenfit. It can make what would otherwise be a outstanding poem, seem ugly or second rate?

A much more interesting and enlightening route to be sure, be it slower and less properous.😏

The content of your post is moot: many of us didn't read a single word more once we'd encountered "less shoppers".
