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 120 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.  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.

I say we allow Aggy to enter because he's been in every round so far! People make mistakes, Let him join us!

Same here, stuff like this can happen to anyone.

I say let this one slide.

Give the break a kid!  (old Jerry Lewis quote)

The more the merrier!

Not sure when Dave is going to be back here to fix it so I'm just going to assume that he'll allow Aggy's song and read his too when I do my voting. Dave is a busy, busy, busy guy after all.

Thanks guys for the wonderful support here! Karma for all.

As Matty said, I'm a busy busy busy guy (Put a little line over the third busy to indicate a never-ending repeat of the word)  I just saw the post. . .so it is added

Karma to Dave !

Wow, thanks everyone. I'm honored and surprised. Congrats to Jeff and Porf for the tie. Go bananas on that pachyderm

I hope I can enter more of these. I haven't written anything new for this competition in a long time, and so it works out great whenever there's any author I've parodied already. I'll keep looking for that inspiration though. Thanks again.
