Happymonkey39 HowTo:Protect Yourself From Unpleasant Giant Piranhas	Yes! FTSTA: Down 2nd funniest unfinished.	i'm not sure the concept (title) works if the subject is supposed to defend themselves from their own hallucination.	"All of a sudden, AN UNPLEASANT GIANT PIRANHA jumps out of the water and eats your monkey!"	1st = good. "pimp plant" image doesn't seem to fit, but with better caption = ok. the "OMFG" made me laugh & laugh.	(amazon) but links would be better if the article exists. A lot of red links.	That this is not finished /copy-edited /proofed (minus points).	"... your pet monkey bob isn't hurling his poo at you like usual!"
	Suddenly! Piranha's! i can't identify with your choice of naval vessels; i would never go into the ocean in a sail boat let alone with my pet monkey (everyone knows sail boats match better with lemurs anyway, but a monkey works for you so don't change it.) This needs a lot of work, or to be completed or something. sucks to be you, now you have to edit this. very funny otherwise, a finished article would have rated much higher (after the copy-edited/proofed (minus points) of course. Suggestion: learn the difference between "your" & "you're" before I beat you to death with "your" grammar mistakes (plus points(for me.)).
MsuCarencro Pointy Sticks	Yes! FTSTA: Up 2nd funniest Tie!	Dead on and straight to the point! Of course PS's are instruments of war music.	"It seemed to some <ref>It seemed to me, but no one I know shares my opinion."	3 out of 5 = excellent. END was good. "outdoors" photo = better if he had a pointy stick. (Maybe have an alt photo chopped?) Captions = great.	(moonshine) because all of your other links were pretty straight forward. (No bonus points.)	The Modern Times section needs more development. The tie in between pre-historic and post-historic seems forced; more on transitions.	"Billy-Bobby Samson."
	Pointy sticks not compared to unicorns (minus points). Pointy Sticks not compared to light-sabers in this context (plus points). It seems a small cleanup of grammar and transitions to make your points sharper will make this ready for show. The footnotes were very good and at times hilarious; [5] had my laughing for a least minute or two. Suggestion: expand banging of sticks to include: twanging, thunking, and bouncing.
Aleister in Chains Tombstone	Yes! FTSTA: Up 2nd funniest Tie!	Love the idea of "could visit that rock from time to time" & "difficult to move" & "indicate where they had dumped loved one" etc.	"Most people move under these rocks after they get some sick." & "...ultimate pet rocks."	(2 out of 4) Most captions could use work.	(angels) (a good time) (sweat dancing on a warm summer's night)	Witches & Tombstones: this section needs to be buried (or possibly resurrected with a re-write.)	Tombstone abuse Youtube video.
	The "Among the more popular traditional euphemsims for tombstones are..." section was very clever, fresh; liked it a lot. This funny article will please the proletariat and the geometry-savvy alike. more to follow... Sorry about that... it would have been about stuff &... stuff (Well known tombstones section also good.)
Lordarcadian UnBooks:My Day at the Zoo	Yes! FTSTA: Down	Very, very, very good. (But where did his family go?)	"Segregation is wrong they should all get along."	(100%) I've seen most of these pics before, however all are perfect for the article! (Favorites: Dad with paint/Author.)	N/A (You should link each set of pages to another related article, maybe?)	Still needs some minor grammar/copy editing. "Lion" page looks like it is missing end text.	Giraffe fornication.
	Very funny article, but this image based format makes it hard to plagiarize (negative points). Suggestion: Rather than force the reader to printout and scan the images into a text-based converter, just add the text on each image page so that a determined Uncyclopedier can simply move from page to page and copy/paste. (This will save them hours of time and it's more fair to less moneyed users as well... unless you're racist, then don't change a thing.) Suggestion: I'd put the monkey page before the lion page as monkeys imitate, and when Stephan "helped" the man over the fence it was as if he was imitating his dad "help" his mom earlier. (This type of literary thing is called foreshadowing.) Also, make the very last sentence slightly smaller than the "About the author" line.
Sockpuppet of an unregistered user Brown Moses	Yes! FTSTA: No Change	Would like to see the later parts of the article developed more. Excellent Wikipedia tie-in/spork.	"He would later profit greatly from his non-prophet businesses." "Their names don't really matter though."	Great image; caption fell a little flat.	(brown) & (slave)	Too short/not developed enough.	The "slave" and "brown" captions.
	This was very short. The footnotes were very good/well implemented. The American Revolution part should be more patriotic (minus points). The Abolitionist part fits nicely within modern norms and values (plus points). The material here is enough to have a lasting article but I fear the brevity of it may cause it's demise if it ever went up for VFD, please consider fleshing it out a bit.
Thekillerfroggy Major urinary proteins	Yes! FTSTA: No Change Funniest unfinished.	Brilliant!	"...united only in their loneliness and skill at fantasy card games. "	N/A	N/A	Lack of links & images hurts the most.	"the legendary annals of total loserdom ..., who still totally suck."
	"Major urinary proteins, despite their misleading names, are unimportant losers." Set the tone very nicely, the rest of the article flowed smoothly from there out. Ironically you get both plus & minus points for no mention of Erykah Badu. I don't think you'd have to add a whole lot for this to be finished and I encourage it; links, 1-3 pictures, -- a footnote or two and possibly one more section?
Shabidoo HowTo:Cast a voodoo death curse using bones from someone you killed	Yes! FTSTA: Up Best in show. Funniest.	Solid concept; but the steps need to be fleshed out a bit.	"We all dream about murdering people sometimes." & "Whaling on the guy until he stops resisting is super fun and will make you feel really good about yourself."	The first caption is confusing as the in-article reveal is too far down the page, move it down and get a replacement pic as the others work great where they are, or change the caption entirely.	N/A	The "fat black woman" concept and usage is underdeveloped. The article needs a better introduction/explanation earlier in the article.	"...and making the face of a horrified prison ass rape victim, ...."
	Uncyclopedia should be capitalized at all times (minus points). Good use of short "Kill someone in advance." / "Man it up." and long "Voodoo is a cool and complex dark blooded fucked up magic art form which can be easily mastered in little time if you do it with the right attitude and for the right reasons." grammatically correct sentences (plus points). Quite a few minorly grammatically incorrect sentences and use of comma failures (minus points). "Are you a man or an ass raped prison bitch?" & "...about the length of your penis." leads me to believe you think guides are only for males and are thus sexist (minus points); however, murdering of ex womany-type lovers is a typical male-oriented pastime and this leads me to think your writing-style is in a voice for your audience (plus points). Suggestions: You should change "douche new boyfriend" to "douchey new boyfriend" as douchey connotates ongoingness (and "douche" would be overused in the article otherwise). Change the Tips to footnotes. Add some links for goodness sake!
Mrthejazz Beige	Yes! FTSTA: Down	Blandily talking on a tough subject superbly. (Wait, what color is beige?) Excellent Wikipedia tie-in/spork.	"When looking at the color beige, one can definitely detect both a subtle whiteness as well as a "lack of whiteness.""	Superior captions! Good use of pics to bring the nature of the subject to life (ironic, huh?).	N/A	Not enough funny color names; add about 4 to 7 in the latter half of the list.	Hooker's green
	Too listy (minus points). OMfG!! listy (double-plus points). Some hilarious color names (plus points). Add some links for goodness sake! and make them all beige. (Warning: adding links to all of the colors takes a very LONG time.) Added your word construct as a link from one of my articles (plus points).
Lyrithya Pursuit of happiness	Yes! FTSTA: No Change	Brilliant! Great use of topic.	"Supposing, somehow, a person does manage to find their one true love, there is over a 50% chance that said true love will be suffering from some form of STD." & "simulacrous"	Made your own images there I see. (2nd one- hilarious; maybe a better caption.)	(the act) (those involved) this deadpan text could really use some funny/ironic linking.	The end was a major downer, especially for a humor site.	"...a crazy statue of a skunk defecating on a wall..."
	2nd place best wordage: "Most of those involved learn to embrace this parasite, even cherish and adore it, naming it, making silly faces at it, documenting its every action as it grows and matures." The Chocolate section, had a Haiku quality, about it (plus points?). I laughed & chuckled more on this article than any other, but there were several places where it was to "encyclopedic" and flat without humor. Great footnotes. Plus points for not wiki-linking this, minus points for not wiki-linking this.

Happytimes says:	Read HowTo:Judge a contest at the last minute while you wait. (And I make my second impressions, & scoring.)

Biggest laughs second go 'round:

• "When she wasn't beating him with a rolling pin in a traumatizing yet comical way."
• "One of the best known tombstones is a round one that Jesus was trapped behind after he got some sick."
• "Segregation is wrong they should all get along."
• "We all dream about murdering people sometimes."
• "The inevitable disillusionment settles in, be it in the form of adulthood, a hangover, or a bottle falling out of an aeroplane and hitting the village Elder on the skull, sending him into bouts of delirium, unsettling the village peace, and utterly destroying the community"
