Results - Week 15

[clauderainsrm]

 I have a lot to update everyone from the past couple of weeks. Yet, I don't really know what is happening one day to the next in some ways. So by the time I tell you, things may change again! :)

So right now I'm going to stick to telling you some sad truths, that will not be changing. 
Every week there is a poll, and when that poll closes, it means the results have come in. And that's never a fun thing. 

As has been the case all mini season long so far, the two entries with the fewest votes get a "strike" against them.  In this case, one of those spots had a tie. Which means more than two people are getting strikes. 

They are
banana_galaxy 
hwango 
itismeangied 
and swirlsofpurple 

It was the first strike for two of them. The second strike for one. And unfortunately, it was the final strike for 

itismeangied  who has been eliminated. I know someone has to be eliminated, but especially given how much I enjoyed this week's entry, it's just really rough to say goodbye. 

This has been a really weird time to be introduced to the world of Idol. I hope you had fun, and that we will continue to see your work in the "Home Game" (which isn't really an organized thing this mini season, but is just where people continue to write and post their links so people can keep reading their work)

Thank you so much for coming out this season and sharing your talent with us!

Regrettable!

But, not exactly shocking news. I didn't think my nonfiction would fare very well, and periodic checking on the poll during the week kept proving that suspicion correct. Also, there's been the giant glowing skull that keeps appearing and shrieking at me that I'm doomed. So that was also a hint.

Sorry to see so many people caught in a tie for the other strike, though! There seems to have been a lot of that this season.

Eh, that skull is just jealous.

[hwango]

Haha, now I'm picturing the giant glowing skull looking all sad and bemoaning that no one ever pays attention to it. Poor, lonely giant glowing skull.

I have really really enjoyed itsmeangied’s entries. I hope you do home game!

[itismeangied]

Thank you! I am not sure how Home Game works, I'll try my best haha. Always enjoyed your entries

[bleodswean]

*smooch*

It's easy! If you're a writer who enjoys writing to prompts and getting comments! Just respond to the prompt like in the "game" and like it titled HOME GAME in the prompt post, unless Gary posts a Green Room and then you can link it there!

Hmmm… I’m looking at my spreadsheet and I thought Swirlsofpurple already had two strikes?

Each week just gets tougher and tougher!

[swirlsofpurple]

Yes, it's definitely my third strike

[roina_arwen]

I hate being right - I’ve really been enjoying your work. ❤️

[swirlsofpurple]

Thank you :)

[clauderainsrm]

Then you just got lucky!

[swirlsofpurple]

Cool thanks :)

[swirlsofpurple]

Hi, this should be my third strike

[gunwithoutmusic]

One thing I miss about the last mini-season is the whole "no one is eliminated" thing! This part is always a bummer. :(

I didn't realize this was itsmeangied's first time in Idol! I always enjoyed her entries.

[itismeangied]

Thank you for delighting me to no end by accepting my invitation to this strange little glen, itsmeangied! I hope you continue sharing for home game. I enjoy your writing immensely.

[itismeangied]

Thank you!!!! I didn't even know how fun and wonderful it would be, but I knew you wouldn't steer me wrong. As always, I love visiting your writing world as well.

[ofearthandstars]

itsmeangied, your entries, and especially your poem this week, have been delightful!
Please stick around and keep writing!

These strike "clusters" are brutal!

[itismeangied]

I'm sorry to see itismeangied go. I didn't realize it was your first season!! I'm so glad you came out to play with us, and I hope we continue to see you around here. I've enjoyed reading your entries this season!

And oof on all the other strikes. These votes are always so close!
