Due to late posting, this deadline will be on a Friday instead of a Thursday

As stated prior to this thread, VOTING is worth points.  If you vote and did not enter this contest, you will get 3 points towards the overall 5 year standings in the Artistry contest.  When you vote as an entrant in this round, you receive 5 points for voting. . .that means no one whovotes ends with no points. . . .

Anyway, the rules are pretty similar to other contests.  This is round 16 so please know that ALL rounds will count EQUALLY toward the final standings, and NO rounds will be omitted from the final total.

1. All participants must comment on all entrants and vote by the deadline, which for this rounds is January 25th,  2008.  Failure to vote will forfeit all points from this round, and if that is less than 20 points, the difference will be forfeited in the following round (No Disqualifications)

2. Voting will take place by replying to this thread

3. If a person withdraws from an Artistry Round prior to the end of a round, all entrants who voted for that person's entry will be permitted to pick one new song to earn a bonus point, all other songs will be realigned accordingly.  There will be no penalty on those who don't change their vote.

4. Once a vote is posted, it cannot be changed UNLESS rule 3 applies OR there was a double-vote by accident.

5. Late entries will be accepted until the 1st vote has been posted.

6. The deadline is a strict deadline, the moment the date has reached the day after the deadline, no votes will count, this is to reduce last minute voting, or sympathy/favoritism towards different entrants.

7. We ask that any entrant who posts a link to his/her original song (source of parody) not be DKTOS for the contest.

8. All other basic competition rules as applied in other competitions are generally followed.  The rules may not be changed or altered unless two/thirds of those voting in a round where a rule change is requested agrees.  Rules may be added by host (Below Average Dave) if it was a rule in the ABC or SOTM contest that was thought to be common knowledge, but not known by a particular entrant.

This was hard to judge, everyone was on a very even playing field for this one.

but.. 5pts=Matthias for creating a funny story with lots of variations of the key words, despite a not-so-subtle dislike of the artist. You deserve the 5 for bravely charging ahead in spite of it all...

4pts=BAD
3pts=Red Ant
2pts=Rex
1pt=IB
HM=TCOP (only because I still don't know what a Holden is...sorry)

Thanks Aggy!

A Holden is an brand of car, but for whatever reason that I don't know General Motors only sells it in Australia. Maybe I should've had 'Get out my Mustang-o!' or 'Get out my Camaro!' or something.

7 entrant contests... wish it were 8 or 6 or some number other than seven.

HM to Aggy: Great job on a tough OS, but the topic was more or less lost on me. I knew Gary Gygax sounded familiar: D&D...
