Bruh this legit happened to me at a summer camp when I was 13. The organizers hosted a bunch of competitions of all kinds, some were athletic, dress up, building a sand sculpture etc, typical teenage crap. Throughout the day my team was always close second behind another team, and then came the final competition, which was to write a poem using certain words the organizers provided. Our team absolutely NAILED that one, because everyone went for happy cheery stuff while we wrote a dark, apocalyptic poem (it was my idea and I wrote most of it because I was an emo shit back then lol) which surprisingly didn't come off as pretentious trash but was actually quite good! The organizers and other teams were actually shocked at how good it was.
We were so glad we got such a reaction because if we placed first in the last competition, we'd win the main prize (it was like a pack of candy, but also the bragging rights!) but the organizers decided to pull some "everybody is a winner, the poems were all good" bullshit, I guess not to offend the other kids' artistic sensibilities or something. So everybody got the same amount of points for the last competition, which means it basically didn't count and the other team kept their lead and got the prize! I was so mad back then omg. Those cunts didn't even share the candy.
