April 2, 201411 yr I'm pretty sure I remember Phlox saying that he was able to vote on time despite being in hospital, he just didn't realise what the deadline was. That was why we did it. That clause is for those who really can't vote due to extenuating circumstances, he said he could have voted regardless of being in hospital so the ban applied. I'd also like to point out that the presentation of results and voting are two entirely different things. Jake has kept me informed along the way of any and all problems and potential delays. The Wednesday night results was given the ok by me as A&E trumps the 20hr rule. Being given notice in advance is a factor in how we deal with a situation and Jake had given me plenty of advance notice that this would be happening.
April 2, 201411 yr Author funnah how if it were a voter the tonnes of bricks would be coming down en masse~ do you ever wonder why ppl dislike you? I'm sure you must and here is a perfect example of why. Silas has cleared the base of things but essentially why be so snarky and insensitive? Like you are bringing up stuff you know nothing about to what intent and purpose? the greater good of the site? you haven't asked at all how i am or what's going on but have sort to unearth some double-standard. it just isn't a nice quality in a person. i am really beginning to wonder with this site atm. it's an Internet forum yes but we are all ppl. i think there are a lot that could do with a dose of humility followed by one of reality. what has shocked me most is that a poster yesterday, well aware i was in A&E decided to send me abusive PMs attacking me. it's sick.
April 2, 201411 yr Seriously? Is there someone so impatient for the results that they have to go and do that? :( I really hope you're okay and that you're on the way to a good recovery Jake, that's the most important thing throughout all this, the results for this thing are secondary to that.
April 2, 201411 yr Author no it wasn't over the results but it was utterly bizarre and highly inappropriate. somebody goading me for a reaction when they know i am in a&e and then start calling me nasty things when i do react. GUESS WHO. results will come in time guys do not worry. i am sorry for the delay but there is genuinely nothing i can do and as this is the only time i will ever host i want the full experience <3
April 2, 201411 yr If there's a big delay with results announcement, could perhaps Leww do them (he's the one who collected the votes after all)? Not like it's as important as the final results or anything - you just announce countries that qualified :o Just throwing the most logical solution out thurrr~

April 2, 201411 yr For some reason I thought A&E was some kind of store or supermarket :lol: Get well soon!
April 2, 201411 yr For some reason I thought A&E was some kind of store or supermarket :lol: Get well soon! Me too :lol: Take your time getting back to full health Jake! (Spill the tea about that PM tho :kink: )
April 2, 201411 yr In memory of Kath: http://25.media.tumblr.com/b9c373824cae3737e32251da57ae9413/tumblr_mv3lchQPLi1rjmaifo1_500.gif
April 2, 201411 yr im not going to be here for days pav Then having Lewwcakes do the job is the most logical solution, surely? :o
April 2, 201411 yr This is an Internet forum song contest for god's sake - just a bit of fun. Funnily enough Jake's health and well being has to take priority over that :drama:
April 2, 201411 yr such fuss and bother!! jake's told us all well in advance of the situation and I hardly think this counts as a "delay" by the standards we had before the stricter new regulations (which I'm not dissing fyi) came in. jake earned his hosting and should be able to enjoy it, not be stressed or lambasted about it all
April 2, 201411 yr Oh, I personally don't give a crap if it's delayed for like a week or such. We do have a long ass break between x9th and x0th contests so this will only make it shorter~
April 2, 201411 yr In light of recent idiot poster's actions I present some more online kindness. ?v=L7CL8anA1hQ mix some dough, add some love ect ect Edited April 2, 201411 yr by LexC
April 2, 201411 yr srsly tho, I can't think who that poster could've been? :o Edited April 2, 201411 yr by Chez Wombat

If anyone has such a distinct lack of empathy that they are incapable of seeing the distinction between a bit of internet fun and something that's important, then their view on any subject is of no consequence and best deleted.
April 2, 201411 yr I'm personally excited for tonight's results :D Can we have some Oliver Heldens hype in herr? hope things are ok jake!
