Subject: October SOTM 2013 Voting Thread

Written By: Max Power on 11/15/13 at 9:33 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

Note: This time the deadline will be 12/7 so you better vote by then, no exceptions!

Gee, I can remember the days when SOTM voting was a project involving a couple hours of Youtube time and careful deliberation. This website is not the same as it was. :(

Anyhowitzer:
5pts=Blaydeman
4pts=TCOP
3pts=Abbott
2pts=Max Power

Since there are so few entries I don't want to be a douche and cut Abbott and Max out even though they are late on voting. I'm going to post the November Entry Thread tomorrow so you have the rest of today to vote.

Really... Even with so few entries people still aren't voting? Oh well here are the results



1st Place - Blaydeman (8 Points= 1 5's)
2nd Place - Agrimorfee (8 Points)
3rd Place - Conqueror of Parodies (7 Points)

(No follow up contestants because for some reason Max and Abbott didn't vote)
- Sadly Abbott loses a 1st place spot and 13 points and Max loses 6 points for not voting.


Wait a minute, wasn't the deadline at the 7th or did I miss something? ???

I mean no offense but I intended to try to wean the competition back to where it was when I have the deadline at the 7th, what gives?

You do need to let these guys vote, as the opening post does say Dec 7 is the deadline. ???  I didnt notice until you all brought it up.

Since when was voting due on the 7th of the month?! That's a new rule that needs to get approved. Don't want to be a jerk but there has always been a process to this and it's not my fault for being confused... But since it's in place I will open the voting again until the 7th.

Sorry everyone. I just started a new job and a whole bunch of things happening at once so I haven't been able to vote. If you'll allow it, I will vote tonight after work (after 5pm)...I promise promise!

EDIT: Okay...if the jury will allow (and it should since the voting deadline isn't until the 7th), here is my ballot!
