Subject: September SOTM (Totals)

Written By: Matthias on 10/08/07 at 10:23 am

Note to new participants: Welcome, and good luck. Please read all guidelines carefully. Especially, please make sure to read all the entries and vote by the end of the month. The SOTM is not so much a contest as a feedback exchange. If you have any questions, feel free to ask, either in this thread or via personal message. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

This is my 2nd month as host. . .thank you for continuing to allow me to host the prestigeous contest.

~~Vote by replying to this thread with your five favorites in order:
1st choice- 5 points
2nd place- 4 points
3rd place- 3 points
4th place- 2 points
5th place- 1 point.

~~You're not allowed to vote for your own song.

~~Once you've posted a vote, you're not allowed to change it.

~~Voting continues until the last day of the month ends.

~~Anyone who's participated in a SOTM contest may vote.

~~By entering, you are agreeing to read and comment on all the other entries and vote.

~~Anyone who enters but does not both comment on all entries and vote by the end of the month is disqualified and may not participate next month.

~~In the event of a tie, the parody with the most first place votes wins.
If it's still tied, the parody with the most second place votes wins.
If it's still tied, a brief playoff round will be held.
All participants will have the first week of the month to choose one favorite from among the tied entries.
Tiebreaker voting is strongly encouraged but not required. On the eighth day the one with the most votes wins.

~~Any entrant whose votes don't show a timestamp prior to midnight on the last day of the month (ie. according to the "inthe00's meantime" clock as it appears BEFORE you log in - not a timezone corrected version) is disqualified, without exception.

Matthias,

The title of mine should be "The Epic Mount O' Doom," not "The Epic O' Mount Doom."  Just a small change.  Thanks.

Honorable Mention: McKludge Epic Mount O'Doom--Awesome parody about one of the most epic trilogies of all time, a tight month though with 4 totally off the wall parodies, and another movie parody that was just impossible not to point.

5th: 1 point to Agriomrfee's Blogs on Hairy Potter.  Somewhat of an epic parody, but more importantly a challenging OS turned into a somewhat brilliant parody about a chart topping series.

4th: 2 Points to Matthias' Puddy-Tat.  I don't think I've read such a funny take on the classic Puddy-Tat/Sylvester series, had me laughing the whole time.

3rd: 3 points to Stu's Igloo.  The best line was easily the one about melting the floor, but the whole idea about life in an Igloo and trying to keep it cleaning, from the point of a nagging wife, that was clever, and very cute.

2nd: 4 points to Peter's Reindeer Elk Poop thingamajiggy.  A few lines here really got me cracking up.  Though I don't know for sure, congrats on what I think is a victory.  The parody was very well done.

1st: 5 Points to Ant's Anus.  Not that I know from personal experience or anything, but his Anus wins my 5 this month easily, I mean I'd imagine my anus feels the same way (it's growling as I type this). . .Hilarious, one of the best this year.

Though the exact final standings and all are unknown, I believe this month ended up being the battle of cold places: Antarctica, Sweden and an Igloo (which who knows, may also be in Antarctica?)  To whoever comes on top (likely Peter) congratulations on winning the battle of Frozen Parodies.

4 pts: for a neat Ig-Stu
3 pts: Matthias' bad ol' puddy-tat
2 pts: Peter's elk poop by the horns
1 pt : Jason's piece of crap computer

Wow! My first win! And with 42 points, that's like extra filling on the victory pizza for this old HHGTTG fan! Thanx everyone, I knew it was a pretty good parody but I honestly thought the subjet was too niched for a medal, maybe it was picking the best chorus line for the title that gave it an edge!


I believe this month ended up being the battle of cold places: Antarctica, Sweden and an Igloo (which who knows, may also be in Antarctica?)


I'm glad it ended up that way, for a while I thought this month was gonna go down as the revenge of the Poomaster (whoever he/she is) with a battle between my poop, Jack's anus, Stu's 'loo and Agrimorfee's (b)logs, but luckily BAD's antarcti-CAN saved us from that.

Wow! My first win!

Shows that it pays never to get discouraged... and all you need to do to win is write something psychotically depressing about one's home country...

But seriously, well done, and a well-deserved win.  Congrats to Stu & Dave, too :D

During the start of the month it looked like my Puddy-Shat would be close. Oh well.... Tub Ring is too obscure to win I suppose.

Big props to Peter, Stu, and BAD this month, and thanks for the votes.  I think I'll record this one over the weekend and you'll see it again in POTM.

Congrats Peter on your first and much-deserved SOTM win - and 42 points is a huge score when there were only 12 entries.  Congrats also to Dave for your first podium finish - big month for firsts!

and Vigdis and I would like to thank you all for listening to our troubles - it's been a big help

Subject: Re: September SOTM (Totals)

Written By: Red Ant on 11/05/07 at 5:28 pm

A bit late, but congratulations first to Peter - your first gold! I thought you'd already gotten one long ago, so it's good to be somewhat right now...

Congrats to Stu's 'gloo - good to see that one didn't get left out in the cold.  :)

(wth is up with the smileys today?)

And congrats to Dave for his first SOTM medal: it's been long overdue.

And congrats to me for hitting the trifecta and calling first, second and third as they finished - it's only the third time that has happened.

Congrats to September's winners.

Peter: Like Jack, I was certain you'd got top spot before: but obviously you give such a strong impression that you SHOULD be up there, it fools people. Great work

Stuart: Well done. You seem to have a lot of potential. Keep writing, and one day you'll get a gol....

Dave: Didn't I tell ya? The first of many, methinks. Seriously, well done buddy.

Well, I've had my month off...back into the fray!
