- stu

I'm not ready to vote yet --- but, if anybody doesn't know the OS that "The Ditty of You or Me" is a parody of --- "The City of New Orleans" by Arlo Guthrie (originally by Steve Goodman) --- please listen to the free MP3 of "The City of New Orleans" that's located on my personal website, here:  

MP3 of "The City of New Orleans".

"-You can't vote for your own parody."

Scathe - how can you have an "Ego Parody" contest and NOT allow the writer to vote for their own work?  Don't you know how torturous a condition that must be?  Of course, I'm not in this one...I missed the deadline because I was just too busy re-reading the ever-so-many well-tailored,  poignant, hilarious and thought-provoking pieces I have posted here...by the time I finished July was over and the deadline had passed.   8)

Even though there really is nobody else within touching distance of my masterpiece, I suppose I'll humble myself for a few minutes to confer some points upon the riff-raff and hoi polloi... ;)

5pts:  #2 Stu; for being just so full of himself it's embarrassing
4pts:  #7 Scathe; I can see a street full of 80's dancers throwing themselves round to this one
3pts:  #3 Claude; if ever there was a guy less in need of self-promotion...
2pts:  #6 Arwen; ditto (except for the "guy" bit...)
1pt:  #5 Mikey; articulate and fun...

BYE, LOSERS!  :D

Well, I see that vanity runs deep within the souls of all good parody writers. Although my entry is more about parody writing than ego, I could make up for it by being vain in my voting...

5pts for Mikey Squirrel -- no? Oh yea can't do that, can we? ::)

Fine, I'll vote for next-to-best, then.. ;)

5pts- Stuck In AmIRightVille Fresh Out Of Ideas Again by Charlie D
4pts- Do You Really Think I'm Vain? by Arwen
3pts- I Want You All To Give Me Fives by Kristof Robertson
2pts-  De Most Wonderful Song Ever by Claude Prez
1 pt-  Scathe by Scathe

Aren't we all full of ourselves...

Beating the deadline with plenty of breathing room...

5 (wonderful) points for Claude...it's like my new favorite song, seriously.
4 points for Stuart
3 points for Kristof
2 points for Rick C.
1 point for Scathe

Nice job to everyone...you've all further convinced me of how cool you are.  But the fact remains that you are all still less cool than me... ;)

There were some real winners here, especially the one I wrote. Since the rules state that you can't vote for your own (incredible) parody, I suppose I'll have to award points to these lesser ones:

5 points #3.  De Most Wonderful Song Ever by Claude Prez
4 points #4.  The Ditty of You or Me by Johnny D
3 points #10. Stuck In AmIRightVille Fresh Out Of Ideas Again by Charlie D
2 points #1.  I Want You All To Give Me Fives by Kristof Robertson
1 point  #2.  I Am Getting Too Handsome by Stu McArthur

Now, if you will excuse me, I must go polish my mirrors. :-)

5 points to #1 (Kristof)

4 points to #2 (Stu)

3 points to #7 (Scathe)

2 points to #5 (Mikey Squirrel)

1 point to #4 (Johnny D)

Great job all, especially ME ME ME

In light of the fact that the L-round parody thread deadline is today, I am extending the deadline for this thread to tommorrow.  ;D

Thanks...I'll get my votes up before the knight is through

5 pts:  Kristof
4 pts:  Arwen
3 pts:  Stu
2 pts:  Rick C

Cool, now only Charlie D needs to vote.  :)

I'm wondering if I should end the voting now.  I don't want to single out one person.  :-\\

Of course it is up to you...

...but I would end it.  That is what the deadline is for.... :)

I'm calling time.  Charlie D had his chance.
Here are the results:

3rd Place:  Arwen with 16 points


Stu McArthur  15
Charlie D  11
Mikey Squirrel  9

WHAT!!  I refuse to acknowledge that Kristof and Claude idolise themselves more than I do

and Scathe and Arwen, I'll challenge you to a mirror-staring contest any day

grrr, I need to have a lie-down.....and a manicure

And my self esteem issues continue...just goes to show I have no ego  ;D

Congratulations to the winners, all of whom know how much they deserve it already!

I congratulate MYSELF for losing with my usual magnificently self-effacing & superlatively praiseworthy humility to Kristof, Claude, Scathe, and Arwen!      8)

Congratulations Kristof, Scathe, and Arwen; thanks everybody.

Tied with CLAUDE?? It's a fix...I demand a recount!! Only joking...thanks for the votes everybody; this'll help prop up my fragile self esteem until I get my butt whipped in August SOTM. Congrats to the freakishly talented Mr Prez, the ever lovely Princess Evenstar, and the magnificent Scathe, without whom none of this self-congratulatory nonsense would've been possible.  ;)

Congrats to Kristof and Claude and Scathe and Arwen!
