Well now these guys have a chance to put up or shut up. You defended yourselves vehemently and insisted it wasnt about the money, but the community. The community has voted, are you going to show some integrity and pass on the winnings? You could donate it to the next jam. They had to change the rules because of you, honestly id be pretty embarrassed about that.
Thanks again Shacknews, i had fun and look forward to doing it again.
