WOW
Thank you to all the contestants that put in entries in week 1, we hope you had as much fun creating the entries as we did laughing at you all them. The entries in week 1 have been very impressive, so much so that we nearly had a bout of fistycuffs break out among the judges, luckily @take5 took control and managed to calm everything down. It was a very difficult decision to select this week's winners given how many quality entries there were.
People's Champion - 10SBD
Our champion of the people this week is a bit of a dark horse who came out of nowhere to seemly have a big impact with just a singular post. Followed quickly by a second less well received post about how his first post shouldn't be trending. Much like reading any of his other posts by the end of it we were all confused and in a haze as to what happened, but we all felt it was quite magical. You somehow managed to convince the people of steemit to upvote you. So good work!
The Comedy Open Mic People's Champion for week 1 is:
@ilt-yodith:
Steemit Comedy 10% Funnier Than Reddit’s /r/WatchPeopleDie, New Study Shows
Court Jester - 30SBD
It was really hard to choose a Jester this week, the quality of the contenders was astonishing, so many good posts it just goes to show the depth of talent laying dormant waiting to be discovered here in #funny as we all try to discover ourselves and build a sense of community.
The nominees were:
- @amirtheawesome1: This is my entry to ComedyOpenMic:
- @steemmatt: You Asked For It @ idikuci...
- @doctoreric: 10 Minutes Of Madness In The New World
- @diebitch: Comedy Open mic- Testing 123
- @funkylove: Comedyopenmic Contest By @ idikuci - The Bad Guys in Disguise
- @kamalkennedy: Comedyopenmic. Entry by Kamalkennedy. Prepare to laugh all the way
You can all see why this was such a hard decision.
The ComedyOpenMic Court Jester for Week one is:
Lucky Door Prize - 10SBD
The lucky door prize goes to a new steemian who blew us away with his act. It left us laughing and wanting more.

oh really? now i'm thinking we need to do a twitter recruitment drive to bring some of them over!
Should we stop reading her stuuf after 140 characters then? Will that make it funnier?

Would appreciate another entry from you. I know you're not too keen on taking out a prize but you have a lot of talent at making people laugh.
I'll see what happens. Most of what I do is spontaneous, so maybe I'll slap a comedyopenmic tag on something this week, who knows!

congrats yodith, well done! so proud of you....sob!
Why thank you Señor 123.
Were it not for you and Mr. Kuci (Mr. Uci? Mr. DiKuci?) I would never have known about the burgeoning comedy community here.
I also would have probably quit Steemit altogether and spent that time on the important things in my real life.
I’m not going to have a job, friends, or family.
But I’ll have you two!
Yes sir I will.
Oh.
What have I done...
