Am I Wrong? *WARNING: LONG*
Ok I have a kind of conundrum & I need advice..First off, for those who don't know, I'm an avid Farmville player, I visit my farms multiple times daily, I buy Farmcash on occasion & also purchase Early Access for pretty much every new farm they release 
so yah, I spend a lot of quality time on Farmville. Anywho,for the past 4 weeks the mods over at Zynga's Farmville forums have been running some contests for the players to have a chance to win items to use in game (gas refills, Turbos, Instant Grows etc) & also 100 Farmcash (which for someone who entertainment budget is extremely limited is like winning the lottery) Now, they have 2 different contests running at the same time, one is a Farmville Guess The Item contest where every day of the week ( Mon - Fri) the mod posts a different clue that you use to try to guess what the item is, everyone who participates gets a 3 guess a day & a max. of 15 total guesses. The other contest is split into 3 categories Fanatics, Hobbyists & Greenhorns, for that part of the contest you have to pick ONE category & only one to post in & has different questions for each category. The prizes for this is also in game items & 100 Farmcash
Now ( I'm getting to the point of this post & I promise I have one .Last Monday they posted a new Fanatics Contest (here is the link to the thread in question so you can the question & the players' answers, including mine, I'm HarrisGirl2010 (which btw was correct) Link Here
Last night/early this morning, the mod running this whole shebang posted the winners' list & someone who posted 6 hrs after everyone got the 100 FC (the player with the username Mymeany..Needless to say, I was very upset because I was counting on that FC to buy early access to the newest farm & still have some left over for trees & whatnot. Soo, I sent a PM to the mod who is in charge, now I wasn't nasty or anything, I simply asked for clarification concerning if our answers have to be phrased a certain way. As you'll see, everyone got the answer correct, but we all phrased it differently.
So, my question is, am I wrong here? maybe I'm being petty, but this is BULLSHIT! no where in the rules & trust me I checked, does it say that it has to be phrased just exactly so. So, someone who meanders in 6 hrs after those who answered the question correctly first gets the grand prize & everyone else who answered right gets thrown bones?? it feels like an afterthought. I haven't gotten an answer from the mod yet & well I'm sure as shit not gonna hold my breath that those first in line will get any consolation prizes but hell ya never know right?
Jesus! I didn't mean to write a friggin' novel here..sorry guys
