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 who votes ends with no points. . . .

Anyway, the rules are pretty similar to other contests.  This is round 22 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 March 20th,  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.

EST (New York) March 20th at midnight
Central (St. Louis): March 20th at 11pm
Mountain (Denver): March 20th at 10pm

(Sorry if I seemed cruel as I did point out at least something on every parody, but I also pointed out positives in every parody, I'm not crabby today, I guess I'm just more alert--I've had A LOT of soda and a Snickers today--so maybe I'm just wired)

Congrats Rex, Invisible Boy and Conqueror, also close call hats off to Matthias, who hit 4th in a tie for third by tie break on 2nd place votes

Damn... Lost a podium due to a tie breaker that blows...  :\'(

Oh well... I guess that's what I get for being in a cartoon craze lately

Anyways, Congrats to Rex, Invisible Boy, and Conquerer

Congrats to Rex and IB! And thanks all for the pointage - particularly IB, who gave me the 4-point score that tipped me into 3rd.

Thanks all and congrats to IB & Conq!

Cool that Rex takes it with a tired topic. That's a sign of taking the time to craft the parody, rather than just throwing in catchwords and easy puns, hoping it all sticks. 8)

I just got back in town...Congratulations to Rex and C of P

That was a fun round...thanks to all who voted
