Sorry folks I could not get logged in and I needed to get this voting out today.  It's really me so please don't discard the voting and disqualify me.  I commented on all the parodies as per the rules. 

I managed to login so there should be no questions that these votes are valid.

2 Pts: Guy's Paches and Ains

As interesting as it was leaving huge comments, I think that's the last time I do in depth reviews quite in that manor,

Sorry if I seemed harsh to anyone.  ..

HM: Conqueror.  I realize that you had a massive effort on a difficult song, and I applaud you for taking it on, there were just certain word choices in your parody that seemed a little. . .well. . .they took away from the overall comedy of the song

5th, 1 Point goes to Kristof Robertson (Technically sound, not drop dead funny, but fun none the less)

4th, 2 Points go to Agrimorfee (Originality and pacing were major pluses on this one Agri, funny too)

3rd, 3 Points go to Red Ant (Risky? Not really, you have worse in your collection, but original and funny)

2nd, 4 Points go to Matthias (Difficulty of parody played a role, it's not easy to do a kick anus parody to this song)

1st, 5 Points go to Guy DiRito (Totally surprised me and to a classic song, despite formatting, this parody really was drop dead funny)

no disqualifications  -  tight finish, guys!!

Congrats to bobpie (conqueror) and Kristof for their combined win and entries into the ABC4 Hall Of Fame - and congrats to Red Ant for medalling

and thanks for my votes bobpie!!

see you in the I's

:o Equal 1st? With Kristof?! I'll give the universe...let's see...5 seconds before collapsing on itself. That's UNATURAL. It's also AMAZING!

Congrats to Kristof and Red Ant!

Congrats TCOP, Kristof and Red Ant ;)

When was the last time we had a clear-cut tie for 1st?

Good job, guys!

Congrats to conqueror - is this your first ABC gold? And congrats to Kristof: same question.  ;)



and congrats to Red Ant for medalling


And a most unexpected medal at that! As you and Kristof pointed out, it is kinda repetitive, but nowhere near as much as TOS. I will say this parody ranks in my top 5 as far as "Most time spent running ideas into the ground before actually finishing the parody", so I'm glad my little ditty to natural women didn't get "cut".
