Birthing an idea and giving it reality can sometimes be as laborious and painful as giving birth to a child. Take for example, Comedy Open Mic. It was birthed from the dark creative recesses of 
Hive account@idikuci's and 
Hive account@dj123's brilliant, if somewhat loony minds. Luckily, a lot of supportive aunts (
Hive account@take5, 
Hive account@punchline, 
Hive account@steemwizards ), uncles (
Hive account@berniesanders, 
Hive account@roelandp, 
Hive account@nonameslefttouse), cousins (

Hive account@jonsnoww), distant relatives, and even complete strangers(
Hive account@youknowwhoyouare see those commenting below ;) )have stepped in to become part of the community and nurture and grow this baby that is Comedy Open Mic.
As with real babies, they are even more trouble out than in, so every week, there are so many people who labor behind the scenes to make sure that the baby doesn't crap itself and wallow in it, that it's fed and looked after. I want to thank all the sponsors, curators, judges, participants and all those who support Comedy Open Mic for looking after our baby and helping it grow.
At the end of every round, we take a small breath of relief, go home to our blow up dolls and have a few hours cuddle before we throw ourselves back into the care of our ever growing baby.
Hive account@jedi-won and 
Hive account@thevillan, please come help us make this baby laugh in round 11.
