Hi everyone!

Due to some issues with my previous forums account (it... disappeared??) I was a bit delayed in getting this information out this year. My apologies for any inconvenience.

For reference, the rules for the 2017 Karaoke Contest are available below:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1S4J7hq1GXMOGEOTEQ_wOl1bErx6vXLp8ThstzrQPJ7o/edit?usp=sharing

Please use this link to sign up to the 2017 Karaoke Contest:

For those familiar with our contests, the rules are largely unchanged from previous years, with a slight clarification to the "user eligibility" section.

Good luck and happy singing!
