As much as I hate PiP getting attention, I have to admit, A Primus Inter Peres tree is quite an ingenious lyric for an EoFF related Christmas song.
A Raistlin & Shlupquack love spree
A rubah in a...tree
And kikimm isn't talking to me
A warning from Shinra to thee
Crash bought a new Blink 182 CD
A prayer in a pear tree
A Primus Inter Pares tree
A clownface in a pear tree
And an admin in a pear tree

Primus Inter Pares tree doesn't have the right flow to it. It shouldn't be leading! You have to sing the line before you know it works, and if it was Primus Inter Par tree, it would wor, but it's Pares, not Par. That's an extra syllable that just ruins the groove. You can't have the most sung line without any groove! For this reason, I encourage you to vote for something that flows a bit better.
A partridge in a pear tree.
------- (Seven syllables. Correct amount, obviously)
A Raistlin & Shlupquack love spree 9 29.03%
-------- (1 syllable too long, but change it to Shlup and it works)
A rubah in a...tree 1 3.23%
------ (1 syllable short)
And kikimm isn't talking to me 3 9.68%
--------- (2 syllables too long - also, you can't be given that, so it doesn't really work at all)
A warning from Shinra to thee 2 6.45%
-------- (1 syllable too long)
Crash bought a new Blink 182 CD 4 12.90%
---------- (not only is this far too long, it's also another thing that can't be given)
A prayer in a pear tree 0 0%
------- (this works if you say 'prayer' with two syllables, but it's not very EoFFy, is it?)
A Primus Inter Pares tree 11 35.48%
-------- (1 syllable too long)
A clownface in a pear tree 0 0%
------- (good)
An admin in a pear tree
------- (good)
With ShlupQuack changed to 'Shlup', I find it to have the correct amount of syllabes and something to do with EoFF and nothing to do with a pear tree. This meets my personal requirements. Good stuff.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
I voted for Raistlin and Shlup, on the basis that kikimm refuses to talk to anyone and PiPs don't grow on trees.
I make too many Raist/Shlup jokes not to vote for that option.
I need a tie breaker vote soon....
Many thanks Christmas!

I thought Pares was a single syllable word. If not, you can just make it that way, meaning it's pronounced like the word pairs instead of par-es.

Well, traditional latin says it goes into two syllables, but it does work with one.

Glad to see my Shlup x Raist suggestion made it through.
