Subject: Artistry Round 87 (Culture Club/ Boy George) Vote by 1-10-11

Written By: Matthias on 12/20/10 at 9:53 am

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 86 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 December 17th, 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.

Deadline:
EST (New York) January 9th/10th at midnight
Central (St. Louis): January 10th at 11pm
Mountain (Denver): January 10th at 10pm
Pacific (Los Angeles): January 10th at 9pm

Here are the threads (last updated round 62, wow). Now by "bump" do you mean "update them" or "make a post metaphorically poking Matthias with the stick of updatedness"?

I love over-the-top descriptions.

thanks buddy. All of those methods of bumping are acceptable, but I was simply looking for a new post to bump them up front-which I will demonstrate. I am sorry that it is not feasible for me to update them myself on a smartphone, someone else has to.

The website thing will eventually be finished, but I wouldn't blame you all for wanting results before that since my life has been too busy to really get it finished (that and I'm struggling with one of my scripts)

I find it hilarious that in a round where there were four parodies of the same song and two that weren't, the most points went to the ones that weren't. Note that this is me-hilarious, which is probably not that hilarious for other people because of my odd sense of humour.

Anyway, congrats to Agri and Matthias!
