Here you can nominate Who you think is the most broken-hearted member of the sports world for last week, and then try to cheer them up or give them some advice.

This week I will be giving a 100% upvote to all qualifying entries as well as 35 SCR in prizes.

1st place will receive 20 SCR

2nd place will receive 10 SCR

3rd place will receive 5 SCR

A great big thank you to @swolesome for volunteering to be last weeks Guest judge, please visit his blogs and let him know how much you appreciate him for taking the time to read and judge our contest blogs.

I will judge the contest myself this week and if I need any help I'll bring in @bamamama to help me make a final decision.

If you would like to appear as a Guest Judge for the Happy Moan-day contest let me know in the comments.

Are you writing good blogs but still struggling to get noticed on Scorum? Or maybe you have already had some success but you are finding it hard to find something to write about? Then this is the contest for you!

This is the place where you know that you will have one new subject every week, because we are sure to have plenty of losers and mishaps to write about, plus you are assured that your blog will get some extra views.

This week there were only two entries and both of these received a 100% upvote from me and the winner @stanleyasokingz has been sent the 20 first place SCR prize plus he gets to split the 5 SCR third place prize with our runner-up this week @peman85 who received 10 SCR for his impressive entry. So out goes 35 SCR in prizes, 22.5 SCR to @stanleyasokingz and 12.5 SCR to @peman85, and when you include the 100% upvote and extra recognition I believe that makes for a pretty good days work!

Make sure you continue to support these two hard-working newer members as they strive to attain their goals here on Scorum.

Second Place Entry "Happy Moanday, Jose Mourinho! Latest crybaby in Town."

  1. The power of this competition is in recognition, by entering a blog in this contest you are sure to have some readers checking it out. I will upvote every qualifying blog as soon as I see the link posted below so that it gets bumped up on the trending pages. My hope is that readers will soon begin to recognize the blog title and make it a practice to support the entries. To enter this contest you must write and publish your own blog with the Title "Happy Moan-day ______________!" Fill in the blank with the name of a person, group, place, or team. This must be concerning something that has happened during the previous week prior to the contest blogs posting. So this current contest is for sports-related items that have happened between last Monday 9-10-18 and Midnight Sunday 9-16-18.
  2. Next include a photo, meme, short video clip, a screenshot or something similar that best represents the subject that you used to fill in the title blank. Make sure that you have usage rights and provide any necessary links.
  3. Now you need to write a blog of at least 450 words to describe what happened and who was involved, as well as the reason that you are nominating them for moaners of the week.
  4. Provide a link back to this blog somewhere in your Moanful Monday Blog.
  5. Last you must say something at the end, one final quote or comment that is meant to cheer up or encourage the subject of your blog. This could be something simple like "C'est la vie," or a quote from a famous author or poet, a proverb or religious text, or best of all your very own words of wisdom or consolation. You are welcome to have your own signature encouraging comment and use it on all of your Moan-day blogs, or give a different comment or quote every week that best fits the situation.
  6. Once your Moanful Monday blog has been posted then leave a link to it in the comment section below so that I will know that you have entered the contest and I can then visit and upvote your blog.
  7. Your blog can be posted at any time before midnight Sunday night, but the content must be from the previous weeks sporting events.

Everyone is encouraged to read and support as many of the Moanful Monday blogs as possible during the week. I will try to get these blog posts out early every Monday so that you can begin posting your blogs. I encourage you to write about an event that happens during the week and save it as a draft so that you will be ready to post it on Monday as soon as the new contest blog has been added.

(This contest is all about Sports Losers, Fails, Muffs, Falls, Goofs, or anything else that would make a player, coach, fans or spectators moan and groan. Please, no post that would cause us to mourn, like fatalities or serious injuries. This is meant to be in fun, there are always funny fails that happen and there are losers that need to be cheered up. This is simply a way to cheer up all of those losers of the week who are trying to pull themselves back together for the next competition.)
