Written By: Below Average Dave on 08/08/08 at 11:30 pm
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.
~~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. and so on
If the points total and votes are identical, it will be left as a legitimate tie
~~Any entrant whose votes don't show a time stamp 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.
~~A medal shall be awarded to the highest ranking parody which did not make the month's podium and is of an original song which has not previously earned any medal

**Jason had suggested a rule change basically to the extent that comments should be about the parody, though I'm looking for exactly the wording that should be suggested for this rule change suggestion to put in vote, Jason if you could reply to let me know how you feel it should be worded, I know what you are going for with it--I'm not sure how best to word it.

**Congratulations to Invisible Boy on his Gold, and to Both TCOP and Matthias on the respective 2nd podium finish each.
Thank you guys for voting me into the FUCA position, "Red Red Wine" has never earned a podium medal (and actually I don't think has ever been the target OS for an SOTM at all), that puts myself and Agrimorfee back into a tie with all time FUCA medals at 3 a piece.

We sure are podiuming with some intresting songs now that Kristof and Stuart are out of the running.
The Reflex?
One Week?
The only normal podium was The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald....
I'm not going to complain though, thanks to those of you who got me my 2nd 3rd place trophy!!!

Congrats to IB on the gold, Matty on the bronze, and special thanks for everyone who voted for me and got me my first silver medal!
Damn, I got my first bronze back in May, first silver now...wonder if I'll get gold by the end of the year? Nah, not likely.

I just filled out the FUCA no-go-from-hereon list and realised that "One Week" was the OS used by EmiLoca for her Gold Medal winning parody "Men speak" back in December 2004 so I guess that depends on how many podium visits an OS must have had before you consider it "normal" Matty. ;)

Actually, I only bring it up because there was some consern about previous podium golden oldies would be at an disatvantage with the new FUCA award, with two outta three medals in this round being to songs used before I think we can put those worries to a rest. :)

Are you sure you're not going to do what that Swede did at the Olympics by throwing down that bronze medal?

That question is for Matty right? I'll comment anyway... throw away a bronze... there's just no pleasing some of my countrymen... though usually those countrymen are women... :P

Sorry, I meant to get round to voting in this, even though (for the first time in truly ages) I didn't get round to entering last month.
Anyway congrats IB, Conq & Matti... and to Dave, the winner-FUCA
