AND THE WINNNNNNERS ARE
CONGRATS TO EVERYONE WHO SHARED SOME POSITIVE VIBES TO THE UU COMMUNITY!
i will get in touch with the winners a prize givers to remind them to get together, exchange mailing information, and hug one another.
To say that a man is your Friend, means commonly no more than this, that he is not your enemy. Most contemplate only what would be the accidental and trifling advantages of Friendship, as that the Friend can assist in time of need by his substance, or his influence, or his counsel. Even the utmost goodwill and harmony and practical kindness are not sufficient for Friendship, for Friends do not live in harmony merely, as some say, but in melody.” -H.D. Thoreau
In light of recent events and a general trend towards "Un-aloha" ways.... I AM HOSTING A CONTEST!
Melody Ukulele Contest
Very simple...
I will scan the forums for three randomly selected days, and write down the names of anyone i see being "nice"...then draw a winner at random...the more times i see you being nice on those three random days, the more likely you are to win....
WIN WHAT? you might ask
WELL LEMME TELL YA

Comments posted from Aug. 20-October 15 are eligible (long term to ENCOURAGE THE POSITIVE VIBE)
What am i looking for exactly? Well some of the things, but not limited to, Helping out the beginners (WHO CARES if its the 100th time you've seen someone ask what uke they should get, or how to play an E chord without drooling on themselves....GET EXCITED THAT THEY ARE EXCITED!)
People complimenting videos, tabs or any work
General positive fellowship "Hey how you doing...ect"
DISCLAIMERS
I promise i won't see every comment....but i'll do my best...i will scan about the first 5 pages or so of everything on three days....and do my best to locate happiness....
There is no great grading criteria....But we all know nice when we see it....so i'm gunna be subjective here (touch britches)....If you whine about the winners i will come to your house and give you the hillbilly jeeper butt whomping of your life (ok that part probably isn't true) I will also be asking for input from UU regulars and moderators for nominations, as i don't use the forums as often as i used to...each person i ask will be allowed to nominate one person for a free entry (or additional entry, as they will likely be included already)...
This is also in no way ment to be an attack on those who may have felt passionate about things lately...but i truly believe its times just just all kiss and make up regardless of our feelings....
If anyone chooses to post negativey on this thread, i encourage people to ignore it, and not respond, as it will make it easier to figure out who i won't want to talk to ever again.
I'm a poor student...if you wish to add prizes annonomously or with advetising attached, PM me and we'll grow this a little bigger.. I wish i could get a present to everyone i see being nice....I will just owe you a hug when i meet you....i give great hugs.
