Subject: ABC 2010 (S and T) Enter by 09/27/2010

Written By: Below Average Dave on 09/07/10 at 7:40 pm

Enter your S and T parodies!!!

Please note that the rule changes I suggested last year all passed, most of them unanimously, and the others by a wide margin

- Any parody beginning with either of the current letters is eligible, except parodies that have been entered into any previous ABC competition
- 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 will forfeit all their points for that round


-All letters are to be combined into thirteen rounds (A/B, C/D, E/F etc) and numbers will go by their spelling (IE. "10 Candles" would qualify as a "T" entry being that ten is the spelling of 10).  Symbols will generally be ignored, and go by the remaining spelling instead (IE '**Love' would qualify as an L or '^#% 72' would qualify as an S) eliminating the need for the specialty round at the end of the competition.  In the event that symbols are clearly used to take the place of actual words, the word intended may be used (IE @$$hole can be used in A) and in the event that the name of a song is a symbol, the spelling of said symbol may be used (IE '*' would be asterisk-an A entry)

-3 week entry and voting periods

- 5 points for voting (only applicable to entrants who are required to vote) (also known as the Artistry rule, all those who vote and are in the round will have 5 points added to their score for that round)

-All Scores Count towards your totals for the tournament

-DQ's only dq the current round's score, in other words you will no longer have to sit out the next letter since you will always be forfeiting points when you don't vote (hence the 5 point bonus rule)

-Top entry for each letter (2 per round) makes the year end competition (Exception: if all entries in a given round are of the same letter, or no entry from either letter earned at least one point through voting, the top two overall for the round will be selected for the year end competition)

-No Extensions may be granted due to the length of the new voting periods (if you aren't positive you can vote in the last three days, you should vote early), late entries up until the first vote are at the mercy of whoever is currently hosting the ABC competition, this is not meant for strictness as much as time, 3 weeks is a lot of time, and extending past that messes up the dates and can cause ABCs to overlap into other contests who may have planned around it to avoid conflicts of deadlines

"Speedin' in the School Zone", by Andria (parody of "Smokin' in the Boys' Room" by Brownsville Station)
http://www.amiright.com/parody/70s/brownsvillestation5.shtml

I was going to enter "Summerfield", a parody you all know well from my SOTM entry of it, but decided to give it a rest for a while.  :)

BTW, I'll have to cram my votes in early, I'm leaving around the 1st of October for vacation.

Please remember articles (A and The being the two primary) do not count towards the ABC, this entry is an N entry, that rule was developed before because sticking The or A in front of a title makes too many songs A or T. . .which is why when I took the helm I made no effort to change it, but please feel free to enter any S or T that you may have in mind.

Oh, I'm sorry about that. I was actually working on this parody called "Such Luck-Superstitions Imperiled" converted to "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" and hoping to enter that one, but didn't have time to finish it due to the fact that I was busy with my job and a bunch of other things.  Yeah, I'll find something else.
