"IMO RU is supposed to be a "fun" contest (they're all fun, depending on
your definition) that allows the more casual contester to be competitive
with the "pros" without sleep deprivation."
hmmmmm, it's amazing how much my definition of "fun" has changed over the
years! If, for one second, it is thought that the "casual" contester can
compete with the "pros", for whatever reason, it is a thought "bordering on
insanity"! The "pros" are there for their own reasons, and the "casuals" are
there for their own reasons. Those reasons vary greatly, and as long as they
are both content, it shouldn't matter what those reasons are?
casual = subject to, resulting from, or occurring by chance
pro = participating for gain in an activity or field of endeavor
