Subject: Voting Thread for ABC4(X): RESULTS POSTED

Written By: Below Average Dave on 07/29/08 at 11:33 pm

Welcome to the
ABC4 (X)
Voting Thread

Voting deadline for ABC4(X) is midnight (amiright time) Wednesday August 6th
No votes date-stamped after the voting deadline will be accepted - no exceptions


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

or in algebraic terms, p = 6 - r  (p=points, r=rank)

RULES
- Any parody beginning with the current letter is eligible, except parodies that have been entered into ABC1 or ABC2 or ABC3
-You're not allowed to vote for your own parody
- Once you've posted a vote, you're not allowed to change it
- Anyone who's participated in any previous ABC contest may vote
- Any entrant who hasn't left a comment on all entries is disqualified and may not participate in the next letter
- Any entrant who doesn't vote by the voting deadline (above) is disqualified and may not participate in the next letter


Also
Under no circumstances will a vote that missed the voting deadline be accepted (even by 1 second)
However the resulting disqualification from entry to the next ABC4 comp may be over-ruled, if you do the following...

  1.Post an "appeal" on this thread giving your excuse for missing the deadline, and plead for mercy
  2. If your plea wins the sympathy of 3 other entrants your disqualification from the next round will be overturned
      Your late votes will still not count though
    (if less than 4 entrants in the comp, only 2 sympathetic "Thumbs Ups" are required)


and the entries are.........



1. Guy DiRito
Xenophobe
    youtube here

2. Agrimorfee
X Is Death Spot
    youtube here

3. Matthias
Xylophone Players

4. Invisible Boy
X-Rated Films Can be Amusing

**I am only posting this thread because I noticed Stu has not yet had a chance, he is still the ABC host obviously. . .

**If I remember correctly because this is a light round, you vote for 5 points, 4 point and 3 point respectively. . .not 3 point, 2 point 1 point

Jason, voting is open to everyone who has been part of ABC, so you are still aloud to vote (I usually vote in ABC even if I'm not in too)

Funny that in the 4 years (4 years! :o) that I have competed in this, it never occurred to me to vote *even if I didn't have an entry*. :-[

Yay!  Everyone finished in a win spot.  Excellent.  This X round was surprising and I'm glad non participants voted.  Congrats IB.  You deserved this medal and I did give you a bit of a run for your money.  I'm happy with my 2nd.  Now on to "Z".
