1) THE BASIC IDEA: Post to this thread, if no one posts after you for 24 hours, you win!
2) Posts that are not direct responses to one of the five preceding posts are ineligible to win. The topic can drift, but no complete non-sequitors. Posts that are responses to non-sequitors are also ineligible to win. Posts that are responses to responses to non-sequitors, and responses to those posts, etc., become eligible, however.
3) In the event that this thread is locked, there shall be no winner unless a new thread is started for the contest. Furthermore, any post that results in the banning of the poster shall also be ineligible to win.
4) So, more precisely, one wins if one makes a post, and then no one makes another post that's eligible to win for 24 hours.
Credit where credit is due: with few modifications, the above are based almost verbatim on EDE's original rules.
now, get to it!

unintentionally, this new version comes 3 days short of the 5th anniversary of EDE's original contest debuting.

That "Sunny Came Home" song bugs the [bleep] out of me. I don't know why, aside from the fact that somebody should tell Shawn Colvin to not record when she clearly has a headcold.
