that was pretty cringe too, fyi. 

but the reason it worked better was because 

1. It was way more clear upfront, in advance. 
2. didnt require any obtuse prefab that was easy to mess up,
3. didn't try to be funny by deliberately being misleading about entry requirements. What was on the tin, was what it was. mind you they were pretty lax about entry there too, and in hindsight, the organizers of that one admitted that the in the end, the perception was more strict than the reality, due to errors in judgement they made regarding the earlier matching process and rule enforcement stuff
