n: 5 way tie couldn't be broken

Looks like this letter is a tie with three votes each for Martha Dtox--"Ode to Kenneth Lay" , Johnny's "Ophelia" and my "One-eye the Trouser Snake". personally, Since I have won once. I would like to withdraw so that Martha can have a win. I'm looking for your input, Johnny, I think you've won once also. You also voted for me. But if everyone wants to leave it as a tie, that's fine with me, too. This has less to do with me being noble as much as wanting to be fair, I really thought she deserves.

I agree, Rick.  I have won once as well (the "B" round).  And Martha's "Ode to Kenneth Lay" is a complex and intricate tour-de-force that deserves recognition.  You are correct --- she deserves this win --- so I gladly withdraw as well and offer my congratulations to Martha.

Winner Round "O"----Martha Dtox for "Ode to Kenneth Lay"


I did not submit an O parody and was on vacation so I did not pay much attention, but I want to add my congratulations to Martha for writing "Ode to Kenneth Lay," an excellent parody worthy of this recognition.

And I also want to commend Rick D and Johnny D for their sportsmanship.

You are all so very kind many thanks!!!!

especially Johnny!! your idea for the olympics style medals is really fun... I have been watching lots of olympic coverage in Crete so I was very pleased to receive such an award!!
I would like to say that even if you have no interest at all in the markets you would all enjoy and be amazed by Frank Partnoy's truly wonderful work which was the progenitor of this parody....

Crappity crap crap!! I really wanted to resolve the 'N' tie, efficiently and fairly as possible, to bring closure on the matter.
So I tried comparing scores:
Johnny D-        5.0, 4.8, 4.9 for a total 14.7/15
The Invincible- 5.0, 4.7, 4.9 for a total 14.6/15
MooRocca-                5.0, 4.7, 4.8 for a total 14.5/15
Luke-                  4.9, 4.9, 4.9 for a total 14.7/15
Mike-                  4.5, 4.5, 4.5 for a total 13.5/15

This did not work as there would still be tie and everyone bar Mike had 9 or less votes, compare to his 193, which is harder to compare.
So I suggest that Mike be declared winner as his parody maintains a solid score from the numerous people who have viewed his work.
