Results - Week 6

[clauderainsrm]

 When I announced that there would be 3 people eliminated this week, people thought "Oh no, another write off!"  I figured there was a decent chance of that happening regardless of how many people were leaving. That's just how close this mini season is. 

There is some bad news though, because not everyone is making that Write Off. 

Leaving us this week is  tamara_in_jakarta 
and off_fleek_geek 

They may have different names, but they are dear friends to Idol and I'm so happy that they came out for this mini season. Thank you for being here!


drippedonpaper  has decided to sacrifice, in order to save the rest of you from having to write another entry.  It's a noble gesture, and very in character.  Still quite sad though.


Those who should be sending drippedonpaper  a "Thank You"  note are:

Sudden Death Write Off

[clauderainsrm]

I didn't mention it, but of course this is an Open Topic. Please link your entries back to this thread.

[adoptedwriter]

Ok. I was gonna ask about the topic. 👍.

[clauderainsrm]

Nevermind. There is no Write Off. Drippedonpaper sacrificed.

[adoptedwriter]

Huh? No write off??? WTWrite off?

[roina_arwen]

Well, I can’t say as I’m too surprised. Good luck, everyone!

[tonithegreat]

Good luck to you too! I had the same reaction- can’t say I am shocked. Now here we go!

[off_fleek_geek]

Ah well, didn't get as far as I hoped, but I like the entries I did this time around and I'll keep working at it :D Good luck to everyone!

[halfshellvenus]

Awww. But I wanted to see more of what happened in your space universe! Maybe you'll consider writing some Home Game entries?

I'm sorry to see you go. :(

[murielle]

Honestly, I'm shocked.

Best of luck to all of you. Everyone in the write-off is one of my top favorites.

tamara_in_jakarta, off_fleek_geek I have enjoyed your work and I'm so, so sad to see you leaving us. I hope you'll stick around and Home Game.

[off_fleek_geek]

I appreciate the kind words and the support on my entries this season! I jumped back into playing Idol for writing motivation so I'll definitely home game to keep that going.

[murielle]

Yes! I'm so glad. I happy to hear we haven't seen the last of you. :-)

[alycewilson]

Wow, that is quite a turn of events! This week made it. Clear just how close this all is.

[murielle]

Wow! drippedonpaper so very generous of you! Wow! So kind.

[tonithegreat]

Whoa! Or maybe here we go onto the next topic! Late breaking sacrifice and the crowd is truly taken aback! Or I am at least! I wondered if one of the write off participants might sacrifice (but also wasn’t even sure if a write-off sacrifice could be a legit thing). Thank you, thank you drippedonpaper!

[roina_arwen]

Thank you, drippedonpaper! That was a wonderful and unexpected gesture and it’s truly appreciated! ❤️

[reidharriscooper]

Wow...
hats off to drippedonpaper.

And what a dad departing to those of us leaving.

I am tempted to just write a write-off just to write one now. Although I've already leaped into this week's actual prompt.

[aggienaut]

Damn. I was literally thinking that because we join Idol to be motivated to write and have readers, actually being in the write offs best serves the whole reason we're involved.

Though intentionally getting in the write off is challenging fate a bit daringly.

But it's just well i have at least two well researched articles to write as soon as I possibly can so i guess i could use the time

[static_abyss]

Thank you drippedonpaper. You are very kind and saved me from a very stressful couple of days.

I very much enjoyed your writing off_fleek_geek and tamara_in_jakarta and I am sad to see you both go so soon. But it's been such a pleasure reading your entries.

[muchtooarrogant]

Wow, I thought this post was wild when I read it the first time. But now, when I came back to comment, it got even wilder!

tamara_in_jakarta, off_fleek_geek and drippedonpaper all of your words will be missed!

All very strong writers enjoyed all of off_fleek's entries, and Tamara's Someone to love us and especially drippedonpaper's entry about "gardening" are two of the strongest pieces of writing so far.

Hope to see their triumphant return in the home game, the rest of us are gonna have some wood to chop to have a chance in this, no weak links, fierce competition.

[halfshellvenus]

Oh, drippedonpaper, what a kind thing to do!

I really enjoyed the writing of drippedonpaper, tamara_in_jakarta, and off_fleek_geek this season, and I didn't expect to see any of you go so soon. I hope you'll grace us with some Home Game entries in the weeks ahead.

[chasing_silver]

Oh no! All of those writers are amazing. It gets harder every week to watch these posts!
