The voter of the month and winner of $100 is TonioMiguel. Congrats to all the winners!

Our Facebook page is on the verge of 70,000 fans - plz LIKE us if you haven't already!

As of right now we're planning to broadcast live this Friday, probably from 2-6pm. I want to try and keep this consistent every Friday, since it really helps to stay on top of portal submissions and everyone involved seems to enjoy it! I still have a list of highlights from this past Friday, so if I don't post that during the week, I'll post it this Friday when I announce the start of the broadcast.

first, cool!!

I try to be my best.

[ThePhenomenon]

Some noob questions:
Can I vote each day for the Best Of The Month as I do with submissions or is it a one time thing?
You sometimes you say "Check if you are in the voting panel". What does this mean? Some people can't vote?
How are submissions ordered in the voting page? Randomly?
That's all.

The voting is held towards the start of the month. You only get to vote once for the previous month's best.

You sometimes you say "Check if you are in the voting panel". What does this mean? Some people can't vote?

Only users who are ranked in the top several thousand (top 10,000?) in Experience can vote (as well as staff, mods and I believe the authors). If a user who is eligible isn't active in the previous month then it's passed on to the next active user.

How are submissions ordered in the voting page? Randomly?

It appears to be random, or could be by date or time posted on the frontpage.

[Baranar]

Congrats winners.

Dot dot dot won? Seriously? While I did enjoy it, it did not deserve best video of the whole month.

1. Dot Dot Dot

Wow I did not see that coming

[sixflab]

Definitely was an entertaining month filled with comedy based movies. I'll have to play those games to see what all the fuss is about though.

Too bad, but I'm sure Dot Dot Dot gets plenty of money via ads from all the attention it's getting.

Anyway, nice winners this month. I see a few up there in the top 5 that I voted for. Congrats everyone :)

[M4KBOT]

Yeah, Tom you should definitely keep doing the broadcasts every Friday, they're really entertaining!

[Oakwood]

For the first time I fully agree with the top-5's.

[Havegum]

Congrats to Rob and Mick!
Oh, and all the others as well ;)

[Pegosho]

Congratulations to Sir RicePirate, Dot Dot Dot was marvelous! It was so hilarious that the wine I was drinking almost came out of my nostril. :D

oh fortuna has been public domain for years, since many people use royalty free music maybe they should have their movies stripped of monthly awards. Also, why not just give the award to proper rapters since the cccr symbol belongs to russia. I understand that there are the winds of change, but there are limits.
