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, while all points will be forfeited, an entrant who has been disqualified may still participate next month if (s)he goes back and comments on all entrants from the month (s)he got disqualified prior to the end of the entry field (s)he is trying to get involved in.

~~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, no exceptions.

~~A medal known as the FUCA 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

Congrats Matthias and Mark, and very big thank you for my second ever 1st place SOTM finish.

Congrats also to TCOP on the FUCA, interestingly the top three are all new to podiums (those three OS's have never podium'd) in my book that validates the lightweight FUCA award, Peter I will be including in the database a list that keeps track of the songs that have podium'd so that you won't have to do as much, if you ever need a break let us know, we can alternate or something.

Pikachu! They choose you!!!

Thanks all! And congrats to Mark and Dave my fellow podiumers.

Congrats to all!

Thanks for offering Dave! If I need a break it'll be on a larger scale than just keeping up the FUCA thread, maybe a couple of months off from Amiright altogether, I no longer seem to be able to find the inspiration I had a couple of years back, sometimes I barely manage to whip one up a month for the SOTM (though the one I'm about to submit for February was as fun to write as in the good old days, every now and then I still get the vibe back).

Anyway, for the current round above I'm moving the FUCA over to Abbott in 7th place, apparently Waking Up In Vegas too have been the basis for a medal winning parody already.

Wow, I must have been tired and not seen that, I updated the result on my post too, thanks
