Results - Week 7 Sudden Death Write Off

[clauderainsrm]

 There was a poll with 3 people leaving.  Due to a tie, only 1 person ended up being eliminated and the other 4 were sent to a Sudden Death Write Off. 

Which ended with 1 person being eliminated and 2 people in a tie. 

So, let's do this in order. First we are saying goodbye to someone who definitely is proving how unpredictable this mini season has been - the only contestant to survive 200 Weeks - roina_arwen  

I would say "I hope you will home game" and "hang around and support your favorites", but let's be honest, I can't imagine a world where that would happen. 

***
For the other two in the tie, alycewilson  and  tonithegreat you now have the Black Mark on you.  If you are in another tie, for the duration of this competition, you will be eliminated.

Oh no! roina_arwen! I hate to lose you. I do hope you stay around in whatever way works for you. ❤❤❤

[roina_arwen]

I saw the writing on the wall. Obviously, I’ll be sticking around, and will at least Home Game this week.

[alycewilson]

This was a rough poll! I didn't want to go against any of you. So much talent in one write-off.

[roina_arwen]

I agree, it was tooth n nail there for a bit.

[reidharriscooper]

*like* (ya know when you you don't know what else to say on social media, so you just hit like to acknowledge you saw it... even though half the time people don't even know why they hit like? but I know... its cause you'll still be here, at least for now)

[roina_arwen]

I’ve been around for a very long time. I know I’m not the strongest writer, but I’m stubborn and I have my charms, lol!

And yes, I knew what you meant when you just put “Like.” Thanks!

[murielle]

Yes! (For sticking around and Home Gaming this week.)

[adoptedwriter]

Whoaaa!!!

[alycewilson]

The Black Mark, eek! Although I have to admit, I'm relieved to not have another write-off right now, though!

[roina_arwen]

Well, 201 weeks. It is what it is. Obviously, I’ll stick around, keep reading and voting for the lot of you.

I was working on a week 8 entry just in case a miracle occurred, so I’ll just home game it.

[swirlsofpurple]

I'm so sorry to see you go, this was such a tough one. I'm enjoying your series so, so much, I hope you continue with it

[roina_arwen]

I’m definitely continuing it for this week. Beyond that, we shall see.

[mollywheezy]

I hate to see you leave and REALLY hope you continue your story beyond this week. I love it and want to know what happens!

[adoptedwriter]

On to 250 and then 300! You have that ambition!

[roina_arwen]

I don’t think I’ll have the wherewithal to hang in until 300 ( it’s taken me since season 4 to get this far, especially since my weeks in Exhibit A and B don’t count toward week totals, or I’d have about a dozen more weeks credited) but 250 is a maybe.

[flipflop_diva]

I'm so sad to see you go! You're always one of my favorites every season. But I'm glad you're at least sticking around so we can see you in here :)

[halfshellvenus]

201 weeks is amazing! You're both talented and tenacious!

I'm sorry to see you go out this week, but I'm glad you've home-gamed at least one entry for us!

[rayaso]

I am sorry to see you go. I have always loved your writing.

[roina_arwen]

The feeling is mutual. You’re consistently one of my favorites, too!

[rayaso]

Thank you!

[muchtooarrogant]

Sorry to see roina_arwen go! I look forward to reading your entries in the home game.

I was reading entries and voting in the poll pretty close to the deadline, and there wasn't a tie then. Someone must've snuck a vote in at literally the last second. :) Glad we didn't lose any more people this week!

Blame Gary. He put the target on your back with his "200 Weeks" post. Its like talking about a non bitter in the 7th inning!

[roina_arwen]

Oh, I always blame Gary, lol!

[littlebitofearth]

Ro!!! NOOOOO!
To me you ARE LJIdol. I think back to the early years - we are talking 20 years ago now! - and you are one of the names that means Idol to me. You were a terrific person and an awesome writer then and always. You always have my vote.

[roina_arwen]

I appreciate that - thank you! ❤️

[bleodswean]

You've had a great showing this mini season, ro! I hope you will continue to share your lovely world with us!

[erulissedances]

Damn! You're one of those foundational people I depend on, someone to challenge myself to write up to your standards. Ouch!

Hugs!

[roina_arwen]

Oh, I’ll be sticking around. I might do more poetry now that the pressure is off.
