Please dont go making folders like "2011elections1bobsfolderdonttouch" or "finishedTVsfinal". If you do, then 5 things '''WILL happen''': 1. Said folder will be deleted without question or warning. 2. you will loose your work. 3. your life become hell. 4. We will laugh at you. 5.

Sorry for that moan! but you'll see why on election night that we have these rules!

Remember: the new VT playing system requires that you abide by these rules - computer will not give you leeway!
