So, um, yeah. We had this karaoke contest end on Monday. I'm sorry it's taken me this long to get around to wrapping things up, but I had other things going on.

According to the voting results, which may or may not have been audited by the accounting firm of Bam, Boozle, and Shruggs, our winners are ...

First Place - Melanie!
Second Place - Alarandiia!
Honorable Mention - Nagini, OctoberWhispers, & Wildangel!

Congratulations to all of our finalists on a job well done!

Melanie is the proud recipient of a three month paid subscription extension; Alarandiia is the proud recipient of a two month paid subscription extension; and Nagini, OctoberWhispers, & Wildangel each receive one month paid subscriptions as consolation prizes for the unfortunate state of the community in the final hours of voting this final week.

Another karaoke contest is planned to commence in about three months time, so keep singing in the car and shower so you too can one day be known as an EvBoard Karaoke RockStar!

If I knew there was this much drama in this thread, I would have come in sooner! I guess I was lost in the fog of war elsewhere.

I owe an apology to Alarandiia for my post in the karaoke contest thread. I posted that she had a rule violation and I made it look as though I would have voted for her had she not done that version of the song. I also posted it without going back and reading the thread that announced the song selection, I read it the day that it was posted and only then. Well, when I thought that Alarandiia had a rule infraction I did vote for someone else and I stated this, however I did not say that it only made it easier for me to choose between Alarandiia and the person I thought basically "tied" with her. Also, I apologize for stating the rule violation and my choice in a more harsh manner than I intended it to. I forget that what I say has the tendency to come out more bluntly and therefore can be seen as more aggressive than I intend it to. That is one of the failings of the internet people cannot hear tone, and sometimes even when they can people misunderstand my intentions.

So to Alarandiia I apologize for what I said and the way that I stated it. I did not see it so much as cheating as I did something that puzzled me as to why we were not hearing about it and now that I know that I could have read the explanation had I read the whole thread before posting I really do feel badly about that. Luckily it looks as though I am the only person who had not read that thread. Again, I am really sorry about that.
