Subject: September SOTM RESULTS POSTED

Written By: K1chyd on 10/08/10 at 1:24 pm

I've never started the voting thread before, so I figured it was about time and that I at least should do it once, but due to compatibility problems with the YouTube I have access to and the YouTube most of you have (i.e I cannot always see the same originals on the same URLs as the majority of you) I'm not gonna spoil you ;) the way B.A.D has by seeking out videos when links are not supplied (see list of entries below and you'll understand what I mean. This post can and will be updated, just post the URLs you want to use). // Peter

That said, without further ado…

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

Earth calling Abbott Skelding...

It's the morning of eleven-one here but I'll do the vote count tomorrow (unless someone else beats me to it) because then I have the whole day off, i.e you have some bonus hours to evaluate, comment and vote...

Congrats to B.A.D, Matty, Christie and Mark (who gets the FUCA).

During checking for the FUCA I also checked the gold medalists list and noticed that "Poker Face" is the fourth separate original song by Lady GaGa to have a parody that wins the SOTM, if it wasn't for Guy taking The Beatles up to three last month that would have been twice as many as any other artist.

IMHO that goes to prove that new music from the 00s and 10s actually can hold its ground against the Golden Oldies, the previous reign of Disney - "Be Our Guest" x 6 wins and "Under The Sea" x 4 wins - is crumbling. (Let's all hope though that they/she don't build a GaGaLand Theme Park any time soon...).
