It's an old rule that was designed to give the newbies something to post about and get a few more upvotes, and also to try and keep the comments section a little bit tidier. But I think some people have found it easier to just post in the comments and I think that's okay as well. After all I am just happy for people to participate and engage rather than being too strict about the rules - and that's kind of taking the same approach as you do with IFC :)

Okey doke! Good to know!
And yeah.. We've had a few people enter in the comments without making a blog post and we let them enter, we didn't turn them away. Though next time I'll try to remember to make a blog post anyways as it helps get the link and contest seen by more people as well.
Also I appreciate what you said at the end there. :) Made me smile.
