  Would a parody starting with "The" qualify...as in "The Corridor"?

What's the rules on these ABC competitions?  Is it like the SOTM ones, where we just post a parody begining with the right letter?

What are the rules on A/An/The titles?

Is there an age limit on entries (e.g. nothing olde rthan 6 months), or is it just anything with the right 1st letter?

a)Yes, whatever letter round it is, you enter any parody of yours that matches
b) As far as I can tell, "a/an/the" don't matter--I entered "A Setter You Bet" for my A round last month.
c)No statute of limitations exists on its age. There's no rule exempting SOTM entries, either.

Agrimorfee...thanks for answering these questions.  I was a bit preoccupied the last few weeks  :)

Sorry for the late response:

Parodies starting with A/an/The go with the first letter of the next word (The Corridor would be a C entry).  I was lenient with some of the A parodies.

No age limit.
