Subject: Artistry Round 6 (Frank Sinatra) RESULTS POSTED!

Written By: skittlesking on 07/12/07 at 10:42 pm

Frank Sinatra

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 recieve 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 5 so please know that ALL rounds will count EQUALLY toward the final standings, and NO rounds will be ommitted from the final total.

Please know I do track Honorable Mentions as well.  Thank You.  They are the final tie breaker if all other tie breakers fail.

1. All participants must comment on all entrants and vote by the deadline, which for this rounds is August 1st,  2007.  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 one of two options.  You may either vote on this thread, or by using the secret ballot, which is where you send your vote to karaokedavid82@yahoo.com  . .

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 compeitions 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.

Deadline:
EST (New York) August 1st at midnight
Central (St. Louis): August 1st h at 11pm
Mountain (Denver): August 1st at 10pm
Pacific (Los Angeles): August 1st  at 9pm
Sydney, AUS: August 2nd at 2pm
The UK: August 2nd at 5am

IMPORTANT: You can enter UNTIL the first person has cast his/her vote. . .it is at that point the entry list is final. . .

Alright Guys, Everyone who votes should pick a top 5, those who aren't in this round but think they may enter a future round or have entered a past round may vote to earn 3 points. . .and remember, if you missed the entry date, you can still enter if it's before the first vote gets cast.


IMPORTANT NOTE: This round has an extra week because I will be in St. Louis from July 22nd to July 29th for the first time in 6 years to see my whole family.  They are all gathering to see me and I will want to spend as much time with them as possible, so updating the website and such is likely not going to happen, or they will be minimal. . .what this means for you is extra time to vote and enter the rounds that would have ended that Wednesday. . .thank you all  (August 1st instead of July 25th)

HM Matthias--I loved the movie, and I really wanted to put this in my top 5, I hate decisions, and I hate the final spot. . .it's always the toughest

5th, 1 Point goes to Stu McArthur
  Hilarious song, pacing wasn't perfect, but you did amazing considering you did not read or listen to the OS while writing. . .Probably not my favorite ever by you, but still an amazing feet on one of the toughest Frank Sinatra OS's

4th, 2 Points go to TCOP
  I love pork, though I also love chicken, steak, fish and just about any other meat or meat like substance, but your song still made me want Pepperoni Pizza.

3rd, 3 Points go to Agrimorfee
  Amazing gas parody, frankly made me want to Sh*t my pants, sorry it's Jack (Red Ant's) Fault, he's been a terrible influence on my mouth.

2nd, 4 Points go to Red Ant
  And this is what I meant, I am having to friggin *** so much more often thanks to your influential but hilarious Emeniem reminiscent parodies. . . amazing job

1st, 5 Points to Syncronos
  And yet another inappropriate mob type parody, did I mention (or do my comments give away) that I love inappropriate parodies.  In fact, this one made me want to go to work, after all I most certainly can relate (shameless advertisement: see Underpaid)

Great Round, all, now to finish up Garth Brooks.
