Today in Mahalo history @viridicus won the College themed contest hosted by @easyeboy. http://www.mahalo.com/answers/universities/which-mahalo-community-members-are-in-a-4-year-college-or-university-the-one-who-shows-of-their-college-the-best-gets-a-tip
@Shinju also hosted a contest, a simple contest asking for the best oxymoron. The contest saw much controversy as Shinju gave users unhelpful votes to users who did not team tip the thread. After much consideration the rule was reversed and Yellow belt user @keepontryin ended up winning best answer. http://www.mahalo.com/answers/offbeat-questions/what-is-your-favorite-oxymoron-1
