I just see this as failure to enforce the rules perfectly and although I can see why you might have a bit of frustration over that. Calling him a scammer seems way over the top.
I think based on the number of people who are involved and quality of the participants I would say that "Open Mic" if not perfect is one of the coolest things happening on SteemIt.
Thanks man. We love listening to all this music.
Even this guys. In fact, after this surreal exchange where he felt attacked for asking him to follow the rules when I thought he entered twice and after realizing my mistake and apologizing, he accepted and then went on to say I attacked him and accused him of plagiarizing which I never did, he posted a performance of "Little Wing" again which I upvoted 100% to show him there were no hard feeling and that we are about supporting musicians. Perhaps that offended him too.
Here is the post I upvoted after the fact and still he's pissed.

It's OK, some of my best friends are assholes sometimes. I any case, I did not upvote this post but I did resteem it so the community can add their two cents.
Love what you are doing. I don't participate, but I've watched it grow. You've done an amazing job with this project. I get that enforcing changing rules can be a bit of an "Art".
Hopefully, the OP will settle down a bit and look for the intent. Keep up the good work.
Absolutely.
