Subject: February 2008 SOTM (Results Posted)

Written By: Matthias on 03/08/08 at 5:29 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.

~~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.
If it's still tied, a brief playoff round will be held.
All participants will have the first week of the month to choose one favorite from among the tied entries.
Tiebreaker voting is strongly encouraged but not required. On the eighth day the one with the most votes wins.

~~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, without exception.

Written By: Invisible Boy on 03/31/08 at 9:13 pm

I don't love voting. I enjoyed all of these parodies and a non-vote implies that I didn't care for the effort. Nothing could be further from the truth. So, when I vote I try to consider the entrants that piqued my personal taste. If I didn't vote for you, it doesn't mean there is anything wrong with your parody, I just means there is something wrong with my taste...

5 points- Agrimorfee

4 points- Jeff

3 points-Peter

2 points-Phil

1 point-Jack

Excellent writing this month...

You mean finishing fourth? ;)

I'm alright with it - on some karmatic level I was even prepared to be alright with finishing last... because considering the theme/context of "Show The Nuts" I'd have to say that the "narrator" shouldn't finish first!  :P

My apologies to everyone and my thanks to the several people who voted for my parody. The first week of March I had only evening classes and a morning class one day a week, so it looked like I'd have time to comment and vote. Then mid-month I got assigned a group of classes every day from 7:30 to noon, on top of my 5-10 p.m. classes, both about a 45-minute bus ride from where I live. The mid-day break I need for grading essays and exams, lunch and to pick up Kathleen from the day care to drop her off at her grandmother's.

This is no one's fault and I'm not asking for sympathy, I just feel it is best to let everyone know the truth because I feel bad about making a commitment and not being able to keep it.

Michael
