Subject: Artistry Round 72 (Billy Idol) RESULTS POSTED

Written By: Below Average Dave on 04/26/10 at 11:09 pm

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 receive 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 72 so please know that ALL rounds will count EQUALLY toward the final standings, and NO rounds will be omitted from the final total.

1. All participants must comment on all entrants and vote by the deadline, which for this rounds is May 10th, 2010.  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 replying to this thread

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 competitions 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.

EST (New York) May 10th/11th at midnight
Central (St. Louis): May 10th at 11pm

White Wedding seems to be the theme of this round with almost half of the entries being that song...

5 points: Agrimorfee's Christmas Carol (Out of season but in this case it was like having corn on the cob in the middle of December. Out of season but still just as good)
4 points: CheshiREX Cat (I have yet to see the Tim Burton film that came out recently, which is more than likely what inspired this parody but I'm familiar with the Disney version and doing an entire song based on one minor character is pretty great)
3 points: Frozen Wallet Dave: (While this may be the same topic as you used for other parodies such as "Getting Down To The Wire" and "Tik Tok" it's still a fun topic that you're more than qualified to write about)
2 points: An American Mark Scotti In London (While the original song might have lost me a few times while reading your parody I still liked the idea of beastiality with a werewolf... Which I also wrote about which you'll see when the Pearl Jam round gets pulled if there's even a Pearl Jam round)
1 point : Conqueror_of_Shelving (Kinda repetitious because of the difficult topic to work with but you still managed to pull it off which is groovy)
