Let me start by apologizing for the delay in reporting the final results. This is the most anticipated post of the competition as we are about to find out who won each of the two categories (point totals and % loss). But in an American Idle fashion, we're going to go over a few housekeeping items first.
First of all, we will be starting the next round on Friday, January 1st. I've had a few requests to change the reporting period from Sunday-Sunday to Friday-Friday and it just so happens to work well with the start of the New Year.
Secondly, John Ellis will be joining me in creating weekly posts and hunting down point totals. He will also be increasing the visual aspect of the competition by providing periodic trending and tracking reports. We'll also be sending out weekly email reminders to visit the website so that you know when points have been posted.
Lastly, we've been experiencing a higher number of delays in reporting points on a weekly basis and will be adding in a new clause, where individuals are charged $.25 per day (beyond Sunday) that you're points are not reported in a given week.
I hope this helps create a higher level of engagement and creates an even greater level of competition for everyone involved. Thank you to everyone for participating this round and I look forward to seeing you all back next year. : ) - I love that line!
Now for the moment we've all been waiting for... or maybe just Tom's been waiting for. Our Round 3 (R3), 2009 winners are:

Congratulations again, Tom. You've earned a total of $366.00 for your efforts.
I will be sending out an email with your total amount owed. Please be prompt in payment as I'm sure Tom would like to use this money to put towards a Christmas gift for his brother - I heard he'd like a Wii.
Thanks again to everyone and I wish you all the best in 2010 and beyond.
