Vote - Week 26

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Good evening.

Each contestant wrote three entries this week, and I know there was a lot of speculation on what that could possibly mean. What would happen, and how would the polls be set up?

People speculate. It's what they do. What is beyond speculation is that there are a heck of lot of great entries out there.

Were they expecting the Gallery? Maybe. Maybe not. :)

Were they expecting that for every writer, there was going to be an entry from each writer that people thought was a little bit better than the rest?
I'm sure they were, since that tends to happen when there are multiple entries in play.

Here is how this is going to work:

All Contestants and Jury Members (yes, Jury members are included in this bit of fun as well) need to read the entries http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/462769.html and email me at clauderainsrm@gmail.com with their ranked selections from each contestant.

The deadline to get your selections back to me is Wed May 25th at 8pm EDT. After which, we will see what there is to be seen, and consequences of your selections will be felt.
Good luck to everyone!

Green Room - Week 26 - Day 7

Good morning.

I trust you read http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/464664.html but apparently there are still some people confused. So I will attempt to clarify:

Are you a current contestant? That is defined by - are you facing elimination each week - are you still in the running to become the next LJ Idol? This is information you should know. If you have to stop and ask someone if you are considered a current contestant, there is a pretty good chance you are not. ;)

I extended the voting to Jury Members as well. Have you been told "You are on the Jury"? The last couple of eliminations have been told that. The ones just before that, they were not. If you were not told "You are on the Jury" then you have nothing to worry about.

If you do not fit either of these categories - read and comment - but your time to vote is not here. Just consider this a contestant only vote, or whatever you need to think of it as in order to stop yourself from voting. :)

If you do fit those categories:

Which of kittymichaels's entries do you like best? Second best? Third best?
Write those down. Like that.
Now move on to the next contestant - and do the same thing until you have a list of all 3 entries from each contestant.

Hopefully everyone "has it". It's unusual for Idol, but it's fairly straight-forward.

I hope everyone else had a fantastic weekend as well! Now it's time to get your nose back into the Idol grindstone! Or grater! I always get those confused!
