This isn't a mortal sin. I understand both points of view. I don't plan on making this a habit. The guy who paid me was the brother of a good regular and was visiting from out of town. This dosn't make it right, but its still not that wrong.
You were fine, no one was hurt by it (that's the key)wrong and right are two other words that are very hard to pin point. Every one that started a war in any country, believed they were right, and also believed they were wrong if they didn't destroy the enemy.

Like I said before, so much is left to interpretation.

The trust that the 60 people already in the rotetion had put into the system expecting to be treated fairly was violated.

Just because they never knew it doesn't alter that.

You can rationalize until doomsday, but that won't change anything.

This has been beat to death so if you want the last word, go ahead, but that won't change anything either.

Bye bye.

As if I ran a rotation based on talent. Its supposed to be about fun.
Not about who is good and who is bad.
Could not have said it better. Karaoke is supposed to be about having fun, not who's the best singer. (most of them that say 'But I'm really good' are not) We also applaud EVERY SINGER. It takes a lot of courage to get up in front of people to sing. Oh yes, I do move people if the are getting a drink, potty break, etc.

since the new version came out i don't think moving a person won't be happening as much anymore since they can now read at the bottom of the viewers screen who's coming up next..but i still moved them if i call theire names 3x..and don't show up..

I am closing this thread. It has gotten way off of the original subject and getting a bit rediculous.
And Mark, I have the last word for now. Admin has the final word.
