I knew when the contest first began that interest would wane eventually. For some people, it's a novelty, for others, it's a way to pass the time. Still others like the challenge, and others simply want the recognition. There are numerous reasons why people participate, and quit.
Still there will be a time when all good things come to an end. It might happen after another few runs, or maybe it will take a few more years. We'll see. Inevitably though, it will end. It's not like Saimoe, which is a huge event run across multiple forums and websites. It's just not built like, or for, that kind of size and interest.
I'm proud of what the contest has accomplished, but I'm not going to delude myself into thinking it is more than it is.
