That's a travesty! Are you considering complaining?

Not that there's much to complain about, as I suppose it didn't win. But still. Rage-inducing.

I'm not sure if there's much point. Plus this entire contest was ultimately free publicity for Oxfam and to get people to sign the petition, so it would feel a bit petty to complain. Still, I feel a bit robbed.

WHAT?! But that's like.. a shit version of what you did! That's absolutely outrageous! There's something very wrong with it, you know. I wouldn't rule out nepotism, or something similar.

I know. It's not like it even had millions more views than us, AND it had fewer/not as good ratings.

Maybe they just shortlisted it before they got to ours and thought, ah, fuck it, let's leave it. WHO KNOWS. But it certainly boggles the mind.
