Congratulations to @Kabir_Daljeet and @Neenerzz for winning this past week's shirts. Both were fighting for the lead at midnight, and due to a leftover Daylight Saving Time server glitch, voting went past midnight. (The bug has since been corrected.) So, both of them win! @Kabir_Daljeet's one-armed girl story and @Neenerzz unfortunate exotic dancer story certainly rivaled each other for awkwardness. I'll be getting in touch with you two soon. Meanwhile, pick out your awkward turtle t-shirt size at Conch Tees.[bookmarkable link]

Congratulations to @CassiEdward for totally dissing this girl at school and being overheard by said girl so that everyone was sufficiently uncomfortable. Definitely a worthy awkward turtle moment.[bookmarkable link]

I guess this site's a little delayed lol. I had the most votes by 12:00 New York time but it turns out you could keep voting until 1 AM New York time. I really wanted the t-shirt (the turtle's really cute!) so I'm hoping you can please fix this issue?

Have you been wrongfully accused of robbing and murdering a convenience store clerk over a can of tuna in Alabama but filmed in Georgia?

Sorry, everyone. Looks like something is causing double posts of stories and comments. I'm looking into it. Should have it fixed shortly. Meanwhile, feel free to submit. I'll just correct problems as they arise.[bookmarkable link]

Heading into the final stretch for the week. Now's the time to get all your friends to come vote for your story! Or, if you think you can top this week's entries, snipe a victory eBay-style! Maybe you can convince your friends to vote by promising them some of your iTunes cred if you win. =)[bookmarkable link]

I just realized I kept referring to last week's winner, @jamieleam, as @jamielam (without the second "e") by mistake. Now there is probably some confused twitterer out there wondering why she didn't get the t-shirt I kept telling her she won! Awkward... [bookmarkable link]

You leav off the second "e" evry day??

Congratulations to @jamielam for winning last week's Awkward Turtle t-shirt provided by ConchTees.com. The final score was a dead tie, so according to the rules, whoever posted first won, which happened to be @jamielam by a mere 45 minutes![bookmarkable link]

Yeah I'm working on a notification system for making the prize-claiming process a bit easier. Keep an eye out for new features in the coming weeks!
1:26 AM, January 10, 2010
I couldn't find anything on accepting the prize so anything I need to do or any info you need just let me know :) Thank you thank you thank you!
1:24 AM, January 10, 2010
Yeah it looks like you have a twitter connected account called @jamieleam, then a facebook account called Jamie_Lea with its own different twitter connection. Not sure how that happened.

To get the party started, I'll let you in on a little story that happened to me the other day. (Don't worry, this story won't be eligible to win.) So, I really wanted a fog-less shaving mirror for the shower for Christmas. Every present I opened, I said, "I wonder if this could be my fog-less shaving mirror for the shower!" They were all cool presents, but none were ever my fog-less shaving mirror for the shower. My wife gave me a pretty sad look after it was all over as if I had destroyed her gift-giving spirit. Awkward...[bookmarkable link]
