Subject: parody survivor round 2 voting
now that all the entries are in it's time to vote on which of the songs is the least good and therefore the author has to be eliminated. The criteria for judging a song (for every round) are how funny it is, how well it matches up with the original, amount of effort that seemed to be put into it, how well known the original song is, and how well the song followed the theme of the round(which in this case is making fun of a recording artist). When you decide who you want to vote off send me a PM who you want voted off and why (if its not a valid reason based on the criteria i gave you then the vote doesn't count.) Here are the entries:

I was just wondering, are people in the contest required to vote? And can people outside of the contest vote too?
Subject: Re: parody survivor round 2 voting
just people in the contest vote. and its a requirement
Subject: Re: parody survivor round 2 voting

Lol, Tone-Def, you know there is a modify button.
Subject: Re: parody survivor round 2 voting
so far 3 votes for 3 different songs. i guess i should probably think of a tie breaker because there probably will be a tie

Maybe you could make the final decision? I know you might feel uncomfortable doing that, being the host and everything though...

Subject: Re: parody survivor round 2 voting
one vote to go... i'm refraining from making any comments about how the voting results are going at the moment as to not influence the vote

Subject: Re: parody survivor round 2 voting

Hmmm
A thought occured:
Say Bob had 0 votes, and everyone else had at least one. So, Jim sees Bob as a threat, and so do Harry and James. So, those 3 vote Bob off just because they think he'll beat them.
Subject: Re: parody survivor round 2 voting
I'm hoping the people in the contest are too honest for that and besides thats why i asked for reasons for the negative vote. In addition voting for someone because they are good in contrary one of the major purposes of this contest, which is to encourage the creation of high quality parodies.
Subject: Re: parody survivor round 2 voting
I think that under the circumstances the rules are fair enough. Remember wdh, this is just for fun, the contest may be called "survivor" but besides from the name and the outside form it has nothing to do with the "real" contest of the same name. There´s no prize money or bunches of easy laid bigbreasted groupies that awaits the winner (sorry to disappoint you if you thought so :P, just the AmIRight internal glory and 15 minutes of fame. Now, if you or any of the other competitors should be so desperate to win it that you would organize some sort of voting pact, you would be taking it much too serious, and it would make the competitions pointless, for all of us, including yourself(s). I´m gonna do what I think that we all will and should do; give it my best in every round as long as I´m in it, and give my vote as fair as I know how. // Snaggie

Subject: Re: parody survivor round 2 voting
LOL.
OK, I guess you're right.
Subject: Re: parody survivor round 2 voting
c'mon dawg, who hasn't voted yet cause the suspense is killing me.
Subject: Re: parody survivor round 2 voting
Seriously. It's getting annoying waiting for this person....Tone-Def, maybe u outta PM/Email them
Does their vote have a chance of mattering, or is someone losing by 2 already?
Subject: Re: parody survivor round 2 voting
I'm as annoyed waiting for this vote as the rest of you are... i'm going to pm the non-voter that he has 1 day to vote or else he's voting against himself
Subject: Re: parody survivor round 2 voting
ok i'll pm the state of voting to all of you who voted but you need to not tell other people involved in this contest about it until the round is officially over. I'm 99% sure who's going to get eliminated based on my opinions of the submitted songs
Subject: Re: parody survivor round 2 voting
actually sending all those pms is not worth the trouble but based on the evidence evveryone who voted is probably in the next round
Subject: Re: parody survivor round 2 voting
If you are not STG, you advance to the next round. I'll post more details this afternoon after work
