Subject: ABC 2011 (I and J) RESULTS POSTED

Written By: Below Average Dave on 05/11/11 at 10:02 pm

I and J

- 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)  Articles do not count toward lettering

-2 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 two entries for each round make the year end competition

1. I Think I'm Sexy by Matthias
   You Really Got Me

2. I Never Cheated by The Conqueror of Parodies
   Just What I Needed

3. Jonah's Banana by Agrimorfee
   Copacabana

4. Jerry Springer Girls by Abbott Skelding
   California Gurls

5. If We Never Tweet Again by Blaydeman
   If We Never Meet Again

6. I Hurt My Brain by Mark Scotti
   I Can't Explain

7. I Need a Clone by D-Mon
   I Need a Girl

8. In Da Sub(way) by 2nz
   In Da Club

9. I Have No Clue by Below Average Dave

will vote tomorrow before deadline, I've got my 1 and 5 spots chosen, but the 2 through 4 are difficult because I have the three songs tied in my head, I'll have to re-read those three tomorrow and make a decision, good thing I have 22 hours and 43 minutes left to vote!
