Even an art competition has someone who is stomped, just they don’t see it.
You don’t think there’s probably artworks the judges throw out thinking it’s a joke, while the person who did it tried really hard?
Would that not be considered a stomping in the painting competition compared to the grand prize?
Stompings happen in every competition. You just have to accept that and be stomped or accept that and do the stomping (learn and seek as much information as you can about improving your game)
