When we announced the results, declaring Alicia Wong as the winner, we were instantly corrected by the supporters of Yvonne Ng that we might have made a mistake on the calculation of the votes. Among the comments we received were that voting did not close at 12 midnight but instead the winner was announced only the next day (ironically terms and conditions dictated earlier stated otherwise)
However, its nice to know that our mini contest is being taken seriously and thus the commitment from contestants to gather more votes from their friends and their friends.
We deliberated and felt that an error may have occurred during the calculation of the votes and we have decided to make both Alicia Wong and Yvonne Ng as joint winners for our Jan 2010 feature of the month. We would also like to thank Pete (Peter Tan Photography) for the gracious support for us to take both winners without much hesitation when spoken to.
We have also deliberated on the entire matter and felt that necessary changes were required to control and to make voting fairer for contestants and also for us as we have been pretty flexible with willing participants of our Feature of the Month.
Thus without much ado, allow me to welcome to you, the additional Terms and Conditions that we felt would do some justice to much of our hardwork.
We hope that everyone understands that this is not any deliberate attempt to undermine anyone but rather we hoped that everyone would learn to understand how damaging the written word is even though the person did not say it face to face. Lawsuits have been won in the past for damaging statements or untrue statements that did not reflect the actual course of events.
Again we hope that this serves as a reminder that this contest is created for fun and also for everyone to enjoy their new hairdo with their friends as a genuine vote requires only a CLICK and not really the world.
May you find peace.
Cheers
