Subject: April 2013 SOTM Voting Thread--Results Posted!

Written By: jreuben on 05/10/13 at 9:23 am

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

thanks to all who voted for my entry, and sorry for missing yet another deadline. I didnt forfeit a win tho seeing as how my top votes would have possibly gone to Peter or Matt. Anyways, gratz to the winners.

Congrats to Matty who continue to build his own set of celebratory days, now adding a "Winning an April round Day" to his list (unless he already has that...).

I was really upset I missed April, but congrats to Matty, Peter, and TCOP. Unfortunately for Abbott since my parody of "We R Who We R" podiumed in January, your entry is ineligible for the FUCA. So the official FUCA winner for April is Max Power!
