Subject: August SOTM RESULTS POSTED

Written By: Below Average Dave on 09/09/10 at 11:21 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, while all points will be forfeited, an entrant who has been disqualified may still participate next month if (s)he goes back and comments on all entrants from the month (s)he got disqualified prior to the end of the entry field (s)he is trying to get involved in.

~~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. and so on
If the points total and votes are identical, it will be left as a legitimate tie

~~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, no exceptions.

~~A medal known as the FUCA shall be awarded to the highest ranking parody which did not make the month's podium and is of an original song which has not previously earned any medal

Just recently I decided to take up swimming again, at least once a week, after eight full years of no water sports at all , hence Matty's flop song hit home with me big time…

5 points to "Belly Flop" by Matthias

4 points to "I Dress Myself In Underoos" by Jeff Reuben

3 points to "Santa is the Centerfold" by Abbott Skelding

2 points to "Foreign Language" Below Average Dave

1 point to "Held Me Down" by COP

Too bad about the low number of contestants (seven is a new all time low, right?) but at least the judging can be done in one sitting, though I hate having to cut just one single person from the points. Better luck/numbers next time, right?

As promised some twenty minutes ago, here are the results. It was a four horse race down to the finish line, once again only two points between the winner and fourth place!

Gold Medal: Matthias with "Belly Flop", 23 points (3+3+5+4+4+4).

Silver Medal: Jeff Reuben with "I Dress Myself in Underoos", 22 points (5+4+4+4+3+2).

Bronze Medal: Abbott Skelding with "Santa is the Centerfold", 21 points (2+5+3+5+1+5) = Separator: Three 5s.

4th place: Below Average Dave with "Foreign Language", 21 points (4+5+2+2+5+3) = Separator: Two 5s.

(In this round 4th place is also the FUCA winner)

5th place: Peter Andersson, 9 points (3+2+1+3).

6th place: Mark Scotti, 6 points (1+1+2+2).

7th place: The Conqueror of Parodies, 3 points (1+1+1).


PS - Dave, when you see this, can you change the title of the thread to include RESULTS POSTED or something...
