Subject: July 2013 SOTM Voting Thread

Written By: jreuben on 08/11/13 at 6:27 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, 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

Peter's parody is a link to Abbott Skelding's "Follow Me".... Not sure what happened there. Can you post the real link please.

Are we really gonna do this with so few entrants?

And if so, do we start at 5 points or 3 points?

I need to get my votes in today cause I'm busy the rest of the week and Saturday 31, so assuming it's still on and that we start at 5...

5 points for HULK SMASH!!!
4 points for Evil Laugh
3 points for Views

I'm breaking with tradition to show my support for what I think are 4 great songs that deserve some extra attention:
5 points: Peter
5 points: TCOP
5 points: Matty
5 points: Blayde

^I think this is fair and should be counted. And to prove it, I'll follow this up with counting for the winner.

1st: TCOP, with 19 points, and his evil laugh

2nd: Matty, with 18 points, and a smashed living room
3rd: Blayde, with 17 points, and a viral video
4th: Peter, with 14 points, and a cure for his blockage.


BLAM!!!! HAHA!!!
