Curious why these threads aren't under Tools & Uses -> Competition, where the 2aHawaii 1MOA challenge was posted?

That's the first place I looked for it.

I know it's irregular, but figured best place for the most exposure. Most of the posts are discussion anyway, and it's all for fun.  If this gets as big as it should be, I'll move it to competition.

I remembered seeing the ! MOA all day challenge awhile back. I didn't see it so I thought it was removed. I'll be giving it a try soon. Maybe it'll revive that thread.
