Subject: Voting Thread For ABC4(P) - *** results posted ***

Written By: Stuart McArthur on 03/20/08 at 1:39 am


Welcome to the
ABC4 (P)
Voting Thread



Voting deadline for ABC4(P) is midnight (amiright time)  Wednesday April 16th
No votes date-stamped after the voting deadline will be accepted - no exceptions



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

or in algebraic terms, p = 6 - r     (p=points, r=rank)



RULES
- Any parody beginning with the current letter is eligible, except parodies that have been entered into ABC1 or ABC2 or ABC3
- You're not allowed to vote for your own parody
- Once you've posted a vote, you're not allowed to change it
- Anyone who's participated in any previous ABC contest may vote
- Any entrant who hasn't left a comment on all entries is disqualified and may not participate in the next letter
- Any entrant who doesn't vote by the voting deadline (above) is disqualified and may not participate in the next letter



ALSO
Under no circumstances will a vote that missed the voting deadline be accepted (even by 1 second)
However the resulting disqualification from entry to the next ABC4 comp may be over-ruled, if you do the following...

   1.  Post an "appeal" on this thread giving your excuse for missing the deadline, and plead for mercy
   2.  If your plea wins the sympathy of 3 other entrants your disqualification from the next round will be overturned
        Your late votes will still not count though 
        (if less than 4 entrants in the comp, only 2 sympathetic "Thumbs Ups" are required)


and the entries are.........

Guess I'll vote earlier than later due to out of town business that might keep me away past the deadline... I don't want that to happen again.

This was a strong round. Anyway:

5 points to #3, Dave
4 points to #11, Guy
3 points to #10, IB
2 points to #2, T-Cop
1 point to #8, Stu

Honorable mention to Jack - I wish I had a points spot for ya...

Oops, my bad. It was meant to be for Stu, I'll go and fix that (don't take it the wrong way, though).
