Answer of the Day Contest ~ Weekend Edition ~

Welcome to the Answer of the Day Contest for September 21st, 2009. Congrats to @Lindalstcyr for winning yesterdays contest!

~How To Play~
1. Post below as your answer, a permalink to the best answer you can find on Mahalo from within the last 5 days. The answer can be from any Mahaloian, at any belt level, including staff. Nominators need only provide a paragraph or less to introduce their nomination, please no images or video.

~How to Win~
If your nomination receives the most "helpful votes" you win the M$4 prize + team tips. Mahalo will also send M$4 to the author of the "Answer of the Day"
2nd Place, M$2 for Nominator and Author
3rd Place, M$1 for Nominator and Author

Also, each time you nominate it adds your name, into a drawing that takes place during Mahalo Tutorials with @lon, which is happening each Wednesday in September.

~Rules~
1. You must vote "helpful" on at least 1 other nomination, if it is not done your nomination will not count.
2. When you nominate an answer, place a nomination tiki in the comment section for that answer. This way future readers know it's already been nominated, and the author of the answer becomes aware they've been nominated.

Tip for best answer: M$4.75
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Today I'd like to nominate @keepontryin for their answer to my question Who has more tattoo - males or females?

View keepontryin's answer here

They not only provided a summary of overall results, they also provided 3 separate links to support their answer, summarizing each of them individually.

Perfect answer - exactly what I was looking for!

I'd like to nominate a white belt, @quesera for a great answer to a white belt question from @spankeylebo.

I backed my wife's car into a post last week, didn't tell her, this week she noticed and thought someone else did it...

@quesera brings up a great argument on the benefits of honesty. We can only hope that @spankeylebo gets it off his chest, and is no worse for wear.

I'd hate to see him lose his insurance AND his wife's trust!

@bunnyphuphu for her answer to, What is the most interesting, eerie or frightening cemetery you have ever been to? She paid attention to the question, knew where the asker lived, because of reading the full question. Was able to give a location not to far from California, the asker says she even plans on going there, the trip must be worth it. Plus she provides great pictures and a video of the place, creepy. Great Answer

I agree this is a well made "how to" video. IMO, it would have been better if a reference to @rishiku 's "how to "page was inlcuded in the credits, since it is based on that page (unless it was otherwise).

Today I nominate @Keepontryin for his answer to Oh the perils of binge drinking. Why do I do it to myself?

He gave a thorough well thought out answer to what seemed an innocent question. He had good resources. And, most of all, he answered the real question, the one that was implied in the original! Great work @Keepontryin.

Mahalo needs a real time filter to warn against potential cut and paste. I feel bad to have to withdraw my nomination.

Hello dear,
I have the feeling that this peace of mail will reach you in a better healthy condition, While searching through the net, i came across your profile and decided to contact you and i believe that in today world, neither race, nationality nor religion will any longer be a barrier to male/female relationships. Well we do not know each other but i will really like to have you as a friend or pen pal if that is better for you, I am a single lady of 25years old a citizen of the United States of America residing in Wellington Square OXFORD UK and currently studying international relations at the University of Oxford (UOA) UK. Presently i am doing my final year in the University and so anxious to graduate from the University into the free world. While hoping to hear more details about you through this email (linda_mack2006@yahoo.com) for futher discussion.
Thanks
Your sincerely
Linda
