I only have the one this month, and it's a flash animation done by Eclectech over my recording of one of my parodies -

Is this eligible for POTM?

Though I may be sitting this month out (not decided yet), Performance of the Month includes any audio or video recording done by any AmIRight author.  Elligibility beyond that is only that it ahs to have been posted on AmIRight, which you did, so yes it is elligible.

I suppose I'll enter this one:

There should be a way to get non-contestants involved in the voting process.

Honestly, I'm not sure why not many non-entrants vote, the recordings are fun and it's never a big contest. . .but as per the rules I developed upon starting this contest ANYONE who has been involved in ANY contest on AmIRight is elligible to vote here. . .

Speaking of this contest, I guess it would not be right to skip my own contest when I have an elligible parody. . .

I know the rules above stated that entries must be submitted by June 8 but, I tried and couldn't link to my parody on June 8, due to Amiright being down. Has the entry date been extended or, do I need to sit this one out?

A little trick for future use: you can grab the link from google, even when the site's not up (most times you can even check it's the right one by looking at google's cached version)...
