Easiest way is to not click on the thread. Another useful tip is to purchase a mouse with a scroll wheel.
May I ask why this bothers you? Not the concept of this competition but how is this thread such an annoyance that it would compel you to make such a statement rather than just manually ignore the thread? It's just a line on a screen in an index on Demonland and not flooding your timeline on Facebook or Twitter.
Another date has been added to the official site.

I've split this post into it's own thread.
The official site only has this Saturday's Open Casey training listed.

The last Open session was last Saturday's Maroochydore session. Presumably there has been a session since then.
What's the deal?
