Subject: Artistry Round 94 (George Michael and Wham!) RESULTS POSTED

Written By: Matthias on 04/25/11 at 12:15 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 93 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.  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) May 9th/10th at midnight
Central (St. Louis): May 9th at 11pm
Mountain (Denver): May 9th at 10pm
Pacific (Los Angeles): May 9th at 9pm
Sydney, AUS: May 9th at 4pm
The UK: May 9th at 5am

I have placed an official request to extend this deadline to the 11th or 12th because as the co host with Matty I will be unable to fulfill my duties as both a voter and host because I will have very limited internet access--I will not be in town

Thank you all in advance for your understanding. . .

4- to Aggy's Toy room (I'm 34 and I bet I have more toys than you :P)
3- to Matty's Easter Basket (I call dibs on the robin eggs!)

Oh, guess I didn't say it here, Thanks to Matty YOU ARE NOT LATE...he asked for an extension in R. Williams entry round, and when I grant an extension in EITHER the entry or voting round of Artistry, I extend both to keep things fair and equal, so YOUR VOTE COUNTS and YOU ARE NOT DISQUALIFIED. . .thanks for voting, my first place choice for the round, so I'm very happy to see that you came forward!!!

Matthias requested an extension 'til Tuesday so that he'd have time to get his Robbie Williams entry finished. Dave granted his request, he just didn't get around to altering the thread titles to prevent confusion.

Assuming that's what you're confused about, your post was kinda vague on that. I just went for the most likely source of confuzzlement.

Yep that pretty well sums it up. . .guess I should do that, though now there's little point I suppose. . .
