Rules

1. Vote for your top 5 favorite songs in the order in which you like them the most.
2. Don't use "DKTOS" as an excuse, there's a Youtube link for a reason.
3. Make sure you get your votes in by the midnight of the 25th
4. If you don't vote you won't be able to get the 5 extra points for voting, thus if you're in first place you might move down to third or fourth in tight contests.

6. You must also comment on every parody.

HM Tomario and Melanie Lee

1 Point Arwen (it was good, just wish it had more to it)

2 Points 2nz (Great idea, a few big lines would make take this to the next level in my opinion, loved the cast of this story)

3 Points to Matthias (You know I love this parody, I really wish that you had wrote something new though because this one and crime. . .eh it is I guess, but it's main theme seemed to be more about a sleazy guy than crime--still awesome parody)

4 Points to Invisible Boy (Just loved the take on TOS, seemed so simple, but all the subtle humorous lines really made this one stand out)

5 Points to The Conqueror of Parodies (Conqueror, I noticed a lot of people didn't get into this one, personally, I absolutely loved this one.  I thought it was one of your best parodies to date.  A few lines really blew this out the water.  Knowing you are only 18 and your normal style of writing, I guess that made it that much more funny to me. . .)

An unexpectedly amazing round. . .very impressive all around everyone

Congrats, IB, BAD and Arwen.

So verizon stopped working yesterday, but that doesn't excuse the fact that I'm a procrastinating bum. Actually, the way things went down is probably the fairest I think I've seen it. I woulda podiumed if I had voted (depending on who I voted for) but because I didn't I didn't podium. That somehow seems fair.

I apologize for not holding up my side of things, especially since many people here supported my work and voted it highly. I don't want to be that guy and I promise I'll work on my procrastination. I should just vote early and save myself from this mess.

I regret not having voted earlier, but thank you those who supported and voted for my work. I'm going to comment on everybody today if not tomorrow.

Again, sorry. No hard feelings I hope.

Congratulations to BAD and Arwen...

Thanks to everyone for the votes

Glen...what happened ?...I was rooting for you (see my vote)

Although I subscribe to the motto "Never do today what you can put off 'till tomorrow"...in your case, you probably want to vote earlier next time.

Yeah, I think you earned something from everyone. . .but s**t happens and the best thing is, this contest doesn't penalize you in the next round. . .so your next round entry will not be affected.
