Hello
The Plug's two-year anniversary is quickly approaching and it's time for another celebration.
We have some events lined up that hopefully everyone will enjoy. The full schedule will be posted after this post a bit later on.
We have a few events planned that are similar to last year, one of them being another Project Diva competition and we need you to to decide on a song to play. Please vote in the poll for which song to play: http://poal.me/gw1vyy
If you chose "other" then please leave your suggestion in the thread and if enough people agree then it will be chosen.
The winner will be announced the next day so that we can exchange contact information.
We're looking forward to spending another fun event with all of you this year!
