It has been a while since we have done one of these. In this post, we will talk about the following things:
The kind of posts we expect at COM (Comedy Open Mic)
The upcoming COMedy tournament
This has been a long time coming. There will be future parts covering the details and even comedy school-type posts to help people find their funny side as we here at COM believe comedy can be taught.
However, we seem to have posts that are really out of place. Some are even quality posts but posted in the wrong community.
The kind of posts we expect here is similar to that of a stand-up comedy set. You stick to a subject, set it up well, and add punchlines. It is not a memes community, we do accept memes but they have to be a compilation and not just one meme and punchline.
We will get through the details in upcoming newsletters.
Now, we had our fun with the contest. But, it is time to spice things up with a COM Tournament. We're teaming up with Listnerds to bring you this month-long COMedy tournament.
You can sign up to Listnerds to familiarize yourself with it by following our link Here
There will be more details in due time. But, think of it as 4 weekly contests with an ultimate prize at the end. It's a month-long contest where quality and longevity will be rewarded the most.
Each post will be competing against the post before it and after it throughout the month with the post that survives the most getting the highest reward.
We're currently in talks with our sponsor but a minimum of 100 Hive has been set as the tournament prize pool. It could only increase should people decide to pitch, but it will not be less.
Sadly, we still have some details to iron out and we also need to get prepared. The tournament will start in exactly 2 weeks and will run for the following month.
Expect different methods to pick the winners than the usual. Categories will be more than just names for ranked rewards. There won't be a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. But rather unique categories to win.
More and more details will be revealed as we reach the day of the announcement so keep an eye out.
Also, it's important for one of the categories to have a Listnerds account, you can use our referral here so we could keep track.
That's it for today's Newsletter. We will see you for the Showcase!
The community is about to get rocking 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳....
Woot! Woot! Woot! This is so much fun. May the best laughter win, I mean the best post.
I'm looking forward to participating.
This is going to be fun
Are you calling me fat?
Yes, but what does this have to do with the post?
Big unit alright.
I think it would be nice to have a community badge but that's just my suggestion.🚬😎
That costs more than you think.
Well, I just thought it would be nice to have one. It's like getting a plaque of recognition for your contribution to the community.🚬😎

Ooooooh, it's all mysterious and intriguing. Will there be a swimsuit category? Will I need to take a shower? What if I'm too nervous to perform? When will we know more!?!
Well, the contest starts in 2 weeks.
However, this Thursday I will be revealing the rules and categories.
This is nice, newbie here and contents here has been hilarious.

The idea of a comedy school isn't a bad one. I'm looking forward to seeing that too.
