Good morning Idolers!

It's the last day to get in your votes: http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/876790.html I hope you have been reading and commenting to all the entries this week!

If you haven't - the week is almost over and you've really blown it! *shakes head* That's no way to start the new year!

What are you going to do better for Week 4? Are you ready to get into this season in earnest, now that all the holidays are behind us?

Results - Week 3

In true Idol fashion, it came down to 1 vote in both the Friends *and* the Rivals categories.

But there was a winner for each - so I will be giving out an immunity for both of you that can be used to save yourself from elimination one time between now and Top 30!

Congratulations to

orockthro

and

rayaso!

Topic - Week 4

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Keep in mind that all the topics this season have come from YOU, the contestants in LJ Idol.

That said, I notice themes and try to bunch them together in a way that interests me.

This time around it was actually because of a conversation I had with a former contestant who was talking about how she really misses the days of when Idol was more non-fiction than fiction.

Which, I can definitely understand that.

I know why the change happened, I saw it happening. But I also get why people would want to go back to the roots.

Does that mean that the entries this week *can't* be fiction? Hell no. It's your entry, do with it what you want! I just wanted to let you know where these seemed to be coming from:


Your choices this week are (choose one):

- We All Have The Movie. The One We're Supposed to Hate. Talk About... In Depth. Spoil it and explain WHY you love it despite mostly everyone else.

- The death of the 1¢ coin / penny and the $1 bill.

- Terrorism in 2015-16 Are we becoming numb to the violence?


The links to your entries are due Friday January 8th at 9pm EST

Have fun!

Work Room - Week 4

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Granted, you don't have to do a non-fiction entry... and the movie related topic can easily be made into talking about a book or any other piece of popular culture.

There's plenty of ways to twist and turn these things into whatever you want to make them. On the other hand, they are kind of specific.

But this is definitely a different kind of week. Or rather it's a different kind of week than most of the "new school" players have ever seen. Which makes it interesting to me.

How are you going to make yourself stand out?
